Sepsis, characterized by a widespread and dysregulated immune response to infection leading to organ dysfunction, presents significant challenges in diagnosis and treatment. In this study, we investigated 203 coagulation-related genes in sepsis patients to explore their roles in the disease. Through differential gene expression analysis, we identified 20 genes with altered expression patterns. Subsequent correlation analysis, visualized through circos plots and heatmaps, revealed significant relationships among these genes. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses indicated that these genes are involved in immune response activation, coagulation, and immune receptor activity. Disease Ontology (DO) enrichment analysis further linked these genes to autoimmune hemolytic anemia and tumor-related signaling pathways. Additionally, the CIBERSORT analysis highlighted differences in immune cell composition in sepsis patients, revealing an increase in neutrophils and monocytes and a decrease in inactive NK cells, CD8 T cells, and B cells. We employed machine learning techniques, including random forest and SVM, to construct a diagnostic model, identifying FCER1G and FYN as key biomarkers. These biomarkers were validated through their expression levels and ROC curve analysis in an independent validation cohort, demonstrating strong diagnostic potential. Single-cell analysis from the GSE167363 dataset further confirmed the distinct expression profiles of these genes across various cell types, with FCER1G predominantly expressed in monocytes, NK cells, and platelets, and FYN in CD4+ T cells and NK cells. Enrichment analysis via GSEA and ssGSEA revealed that these genes are involved in critical pathways, including intestinal immune networks, fatty acid synthesis, and antigen processing. In conclusion, our comprehensive analysis identifies FCER1G and FYN as promising biomarkers for sepsis, providing valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms of this complex condition. These findings offer new avenues for the development of targeted diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in sepsis management.

Objective: TRIB3 has been confirmed to participate in and regulate biological metabolic activities in head and neck tumors such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma and oropharyngeal carcinoma, so the purpose of this study was to explore whether there is a correlation between TRIB3 and Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (LSCC) and to preliminarily explore the biological characteristics of TRIB3 in LSCC.
Methods: TRIB3 expression in the LSCC was analyzed based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. CCK-8 assay, Colony Formation Assay, wound healing assay, and Transwell assay were performed to investigate the roles of TRIB3 in the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of LSCC.

The protozoan parasite Neospora caninum is an important cause of abortion in cattle. Infection occurs horizontally by ingestion of oocysts shed by canids or vertically, from an infected dam to the foetus, and may result in abortion, stillbirth, or the birth of subclinically infected offspring. We estimated the occurrence of N.

Dealing with radioactive waste, particularly from various industrial processes, poses significant challenges. This paper explores the use of lithium aluminate borate (Li-Al-B) glass matrix as an alternative method for immobilizing radioactive waste, focusing specifically on waste generated in tin smelting industries, known as tin slag. The study primarily concentrates on transforming tin slag, a byproduct abundant in Natural Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM), into a stable and safe form for disposal.

Skipping represents a training alternative to running due to its lower knee contact forces and higher whole-body metabolic cost. The increased metabolic cost of skipping is associated with a higher vertical center-of-mass (COM) displacement during the support and flight phases of the skipping hop compared to running. However, skipping has lower muscle force impulses than running.

In the medical field, endoscopic video analysis is crucial for disease diagnosis and minimally invasive surgery. The Endoscopic Foundation Models (Endo- FM) utilize large-scale self-supervised pre-training on endoscopic video data and leverage video transformer models to capture long-range spatiotemporal dependencies. However, detecting complex lesions such as gastrointestinal metaplasia (GIM) in endoscopic videos remains challenging due to unclear boundaries and indistinct features, and Endo-FM has not demonstrated good performance.
