RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To assess the role of Machine Learning (ML) in identification critical factors of dementia and mild cognitive impairment. METHODS: 371 elderly individuals were ultimately included in the ML analysis. Demographic information (including gender, age, parity, visual acuity, auditory function, mobility, and medication history) and 35 features from 10 assessment scales were used for modeling. Five machine learning classifiers were used for evaluation, employing a procedure involving feature extraction, selection, model training, and performance assessment to identify key indicative factors. RESULTS: The Random Forest model, after data preprocessing, Information Gain, and Meta-analysis, utilized three training features and four meta-features, achieving an area under the curve of 0.961 and a accuracy of 0.894, showcasing exceptional accuracy for the identification of dementia and mild cognitive impairment. CONCLUSIONS: ML serves as a identification tool for dementia and mild cognitive impairment. Using Information Gain and Meta-feature analysis, Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) and Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) scale information emerged as crucial for training the Random Forest model.

Fe3+δGeTe2(FGT) has proved to be an interesting van der Waals (vdW) ferromagnetic compound with a tunable Curie temperature (TC). However, the underlying mechanism for varyingTCremains elusive. Here, we systematically investigate and compare low-temperature magnetic properties of single crystalline FGT samples that exhibitTCs ranging from 160 K to 205 K. Spin stiffness (D) and spin excitation gap (Δ) are extracted using Bloch's theory for crystals with varying Fe content. Compared to Cr-based vdW ferromagnets, FGT compounds have higher spin stiffness values but lower spin wave excitation gaps. We discuss the implication of these relationships in Fe-Fe ion magnetic interactions in FGT unit cells. The itinerancy of magnetic electrons is measured and discussed under the Rhodes-Wohlfarth ratio (RWR) and the Takahashi theory.
RESUMO
The microplastics (MPs) formed by broken plastic film may migrate in the soil under drip irrigation. To investigate the migration distribution of MPs in desert farmland soil under drip irrigation conditions, our study was conducted on farmland in Xinjiang (China). A MP drip irrigation penetration migration testing device was set up in combination with Xinjiang farmland irrigation methods to conduct a migration simulation experiment. The results showed that the migration amount of MPs in soil was significantly positively correlated with the amount of drip irrigation, and significantly negatively correlated with the soil depth; in addition, the relationship between the migration amount of MPs in different types of soil was: clay < sandy loam < sandy soil. Under drip irrigation conditions, the migration rates of MPs were 30.51%, 19.41%, and 10.29% in sandy soil, sandy loam soil, and clay, respectively. The migration ability of these three particle sizes of polyethylene MPs in soil was ranked as follows: 25 to 147 µm > 0 to 25 µm > 147 to 250 µm. When the drip irrigation volume was 2.6 to 3.2 L, horizontal migration distances of MPs exceeded 5 cm, and vertical migration distances reached more than 30 cm. Our findings provide reference data for the study of soil MP migration. Environ Toxicol Chem 2024;43:1250-1259. © 2024 SETAC.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the clinical and genetic characteristics, treatment and prognosis of four children with Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) due to variants of TRPC6 gene. METHODS: Clinical data of four children with SRNS admitted to Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University between May 2020 and August 2022 were collected. Peripheral blood samples were collected from the children and their parents, and whole exome sequencing was carried out. Sanger sequencing was used to verify the pathogenicity of the candidate variants among the children and their parents. RESULTS: All of the four children were found to harbor heterozygous variants of the TRPC6 gene, including c.523C>T (p.R175W), c.1327T>A (p.F443I), c.430G>C (p.E144Q) (unreported previously), and c.523C>T (p.R175W), which were all missense variants. Two of the children have shown a simple type, whilst two have shown a nephritis type, none had extrarenal phenotype. Comprehensive renal pathology of three children revealed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Two children were treated with steroids combined with calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs), among whom one showed significant improvement in symptoms. CONCLUSION: Discoveries of the novel c.430G>C variant and the new SRNS phenotype of the c.1327T>A variant have expanded the mutational and phenotypic spectrum of the TRPC6 gene, which has provided a reference for clinical diagnosis and genetic counseling for the families.

Intramuscular fat (IMF) content and distribution significantly contribute to the eating quality of pork. However, the current methods used for measuring these traits are complex, time-consuming and costly. To simplify the measurement process, this study developed a smartphone application (App) called Pork IMF. This App serves as a rapid and portable phenotyping tool for acquiring pork images and extracting the image-based IMF traits through embedded deep-learning algorithms. Utilizing this App, we collected the IMF traits of the longissimus dorsi muscle in a crossbred population of Large White × Tongcheng pigs. Genome-wide association studies detected 13 and 16 SNPs that were significantly associated with IMF content and distribution, respectively, highlighting NR2F2, MCTP2, MTLN, ST3GAL5, NDUFAB1 and PID1 as candidate genes. Our research introduces a user-friendly digital phenotyping technology for quantifying IMF traits and suggests candidate genes and SNPs for genetic improvement of IMF traits in pigs.

Background: Currently, the value of induction chemoimmunotherapy before chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been explored. This study was designed to explore the efficacy and safety of induction chemoimmunotherapy in patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC. Methods: Unresectable stage III NSCLC patients who received CRT with or without induction chemoimmunotherapy between August 2014 and December 2021 were retrospectively enrolled. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were assessed from the initiation of treatment and estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. The potential factors affecting PFS and OS were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression models. One-to-one propensity score matching (PSM) was used to further minimize confounding. Results: A total of 279 consecutive patients were enrolled, with 53 (19.0%) receiving induction chemoimmunotherapy followed by CRT (I-CRT group), and the remaining 226 (81.0%) receiving CRT alone (CRT group). After PSM, the median PFS was 24.8 months in the I-CRT group vs. 13.3 months in the CRT group (P=0.035). The median OS was not reached (NR) vs. 36.6 months ((P=0.142). The incidence of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) was similar in both groups, except that the incidence of hematological toxicity was higher in the I-CRT group (77.1% vs. 58.3%, P=0.049). Compared to induction chemotherapy, induction chemoimmunotherapy demonstrated a superior objective response rate (60.4% vs. 22.2%, P<0.001) and further prolonged PFS (median NR vs. 13.2 months, P=0.009) and OS (median NR vs. 25.9 months, P=0.106) without increasing the incidence of TRAEs in patients receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Conclusion: Induction chemoimmunotherapy is safe and may improve outcomes of CRT in patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC. Moreover, induction chemoimmunotherapy may further improve treatment response and survival outcomes compared to induction chemotherapy before cCRT.

The intrabandgap states on the hematite (α-Fe2O3) electrodes are believed to play an important role in water photooxidation. Yet, it is not fully understood how the intrabandgap states are involved in the reaction. In this work, the intraband-gap states in water photooxidation on α-Fe2O3 electrodes are investigated by a combination of multiple (photo-) electrochemical techniques and operando spectroscopic methods. Two kinds of surface states are observed on the electrodes during water photooxidation, and their roles are quantitatively determined by the correlation with the steady-state photocurrent. It is demonstrated that the intrinsic electronic surface state close to the conduction band can act only as the recombination center for the photocarriers. However, the photogenerated surface state closer to the valence band is revealed to be the reactant in the rate-determining step in oxygen evolution reaction. These findings may be beneficial to elucidate the actual function of the surface states and provide insights into the kinetic and mechanism studies of water photooxidation on the α-Fe2O3 electrodes.
RESUMO
Jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) is a commercially important tree native to China, known for its high nutritional value and widespread distribution, as well as its diverse germplasm resources. Being resilient to harsh climatic conditions, the cultivation of jujube could provide a solution to food insecurity and income for people of arid and semi-arid regions in and outside of China. The evaluation of germplasm resources and genetic diversity in jujube necessitates the use of Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) markers. SSR markers are highly polymorphic and can be used to evaluate the genetic diversity within and between cultivars of Chinese jujube, and are important for conservation biology, breeding programs, and the discovery of important traits for Chinese jujube improvement in China and abroad. However, traditional methods of SSR development are time-consuming and inadequate to meet the growing research demands. To address this issue, we developed a novel approach called Multiple-Genome-Based SSR identification (MGB-SSR), which utilizes the genomes of three jujube cultivars to rapidly screen for polymorphic SSRs in the jujube genome. Through the screening process, we identified 12 pairs of SSR primers, which were then used to successfully classify 249 jujube genotypes. Based on the genotyping results, a digital ID card was established, enabling the complete identification of all 249 jujube plants. The MGB-SSR approach proved efficient in rapidly detecting polymorphic SSRs within the jujube genome. Notably, this study represents the first successful differentiation of jujube germplasm resources using 12 SSR markers, with 4 markers successfully identifying triploid jujube genotypes. These findings offer valuable information for the classification of Chinese jujube germplasm, thereby providing significant assistance to jujube researchers and breeders in identifying unknown jujube germplasm.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the genotypes of the pathogenic gene COL4A5 and the characteristics of clinical phenotypes in children with Alport syndrome (AS). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed for the genetic testing results and clinical data of 19 AS children with COL4A5 gene mutations. RESULTS: Among the 19 children with AS caused by COL4A5 gene mutations, 1 (5%) carried a new mutation of the COL4A5 gene, i.e., c.3372A>G(p.P1124=) and presented with AS coexisting with IgA vasculitis nephritis; 3 children (16%) had large fragment deletion of the COL4A5 gene, among whom 2 children (case 7 had a new mutation site of loss51-53) had gross hematuria and albuminuria at the onset, and 1 child (case 13 had a new mutation site of loss3-53) only had microscopic hematuria, while the other 15 children (79%) had common clinical phenotypes of AS, among whom 7 carried new mutations of the COL4A5 gene. Among all 19 children, 3 children (16%) who carried COL4A5 gene mutations also had COL4A4 gene mutations, and 1 child (5%) had COL4A3 gene mutations. Among these children with double gene mutations, 2 had gross hematuria and proteinuria at the onset. CONCLUSIONS: This study expands the genotype and phenotype spectrums of the pathogenic gene COL4A5 for AS. Children with large fragment deletion of the COL4A5 gene or double gene mutations of COL4A5 with COL4A3 or COL4A4 tend to have more serious clinical manifestations.

Objective: To study the effect of congenital dyskeratosis 1 (DKC1) on neuroblastoma and its regulation mechanism. Methods: The expression of DKC1 in neuroblastoma was analyzed by TCGA database and molecular assay. NB cells were transfected with siDKC1 to observe the effects of DKC1 on proliferation, cloning, metastasis, and invasion, and apoptosis and apoptosis-related proteins. The tumor-bearing mouse model was constructed, shDKC1 was transfected to observe the tumor growth and tumor tissue changes, and the expression of DKC1 and Ki-67 was detected. Screening and identification of miRNA326-5p targeting DKC1. NB cells were treated with miRNA326-5p mimic or inhibitors to detect the expression of DKC1. NB cells were transfected with miRNA326-5p and DKC1 mimics to detect cell proliferation, apoptosis, and apoptotic protein expression. Results: DKC1 was highly expressed in NB cells and tissues. The activity, proliferation, invasion, and migration of NB cells were significantly decreased by DKC1 gene knockout, while apoptosis was significantly increased. The expression level of B-cell lymphoma-2 in shDKC1 group was significantly lower than that of the control group, while the expression level of BAK, BAX, and caspase-3 was significantly higher than that of the control group. The results of experiments on tumor-bearing mice were consistent with the above results. The results of miRNA assay showed that miRNA326-5p could bind DKC1 mRNA to inhibit the protein expression, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of NB cells, promoting their apoptosis, and regulating the expression of apoptotic proteins. Conclusion: miRNA326-5p targeting DKC1 mRNA regulates apoptosis-related proteins to inhibit neuroblastoma proliferation and promote the apoptotic process.

Ziziphus jujuba Mill., commonly referred to as jujube, is a species of fruiting buckthorn (family Rhamnaceae) that is frequently found across the Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Hebei provinces of China. The 'Fengmiguan' variety of jujube, also known as 'Honey jar,' is distinguished by its high yield and sugar content, as well as its strong ability to adapt to different environments. In this study, we sequenced and assembled the chloroplast genome (i.e. the plastome) of 'Fengmiguan' jujube using a paired-end short-read sequencing technique. The plastome exhibits a quadripartite structure with a total length of 161,818 bp that consists of a large single-copy region (89,427 bp), a small single-copy region (19,361 bp), and two inverted repeats (26,515 bp). The GC content of the plastome is 36.75%. Annotation of the 'Fengmiguan' jujube plastome revealed 123 genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 36 transfer RNA genes, and eight ribosomal RNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the 'Fengmiguan' variety is closely related to the 'Bokjo' variety. Furthermore, we found four variations between these two varieties of jujube, one of which was a 101 bp insertion. Our findings enhance the current understanding of the phylogenetic relationship between different varieties of Z. jujuba Mill., which could possibly aid in the improvement of genetic breeding and population selection in jujubes.
RESUMO
Marbling characteristics are important traits for the genetic improvement of pork quality. Accurate marbling segmentation is the prerequisite for the quantification of these traits. However, the marbling targets are small and thin with dissimilar sizes and shapes and scattered in pork, complicating the segmentation task. Here, we proposed a deep learning-based pipeline, a shallow context encoder network (Marbling-Net) with the usage of patch-based training strategy and image up-sampling to accurately segment marbling regions from images of pork longissimus dorsi (LD) collected by smartphones. A total of 173 images of pork LD were acquired from different pigs and released as a pixel-wise annotation marbling dataset, the pork marbling dataset 2023 (PMD2023). The proposed pipeline achieved an IoU of 76.8%, a precision of 87.8%, a recall of 86.0%, and an F1-score of 86.9% on PMD2023, outperforming the state-of-art counterparts. The marbling ratios in 100 images of pork LD are highly correlated with marbling scores and intramuscular fat content measured by the spectrometer method (R2 = 0.884 and 0.733, respectively), demonstrating the reliability of our method. The trained model could be deployed in mobile platforms to accurately quantify pork marbling characteristics, benefiting the pork quality breeding and meat industry.

Photoelectrochemical oxidation of water over semiconductors is a promising route for the production of sustainable solar fuels. TiO2 water photooxidation has been intensively studied over the past 50 years, but its rate law and mechanism are still undetermined. The main challenges are that there is no appropriate reaction kinetic model currently, and that both the reaction rate constant and reactant photohole concentration/density are not readily quantified with respect to conventional chemical reactions. Here we report that the rate law and photohole transfer mechanism could be determined by a combination of multiple (photo-) electrochemical techniques. We demonstrate that the kinetics of TiO2 water oxidation by photogenerated holes can be well-described by a model of surface state mediating charge transfer and recombination. The rate law, in terms of steady-state photocurrent, is the product of the surface hole density exponential dependent rate constant and the surface hole density, with first order for all the surface hole densities studied. This reactant concentration dependent rate constant is conceptually unexpected for an elementary step in conventional chemical reactions. In addition, we find that hydroxyl ions in bulk solutions are involved in the reaction as indicated by observation of the solution pH dependent apparent rate constant. This study may thus lead to key insights both for strategies to evaluate and/or enhance photoelectrochemical performances and for understanding reaction mechanisms.
RESUMO
Diatoms are unicellular eukaryotic phytoplankton that account for approximately 20% of global carbon fixation and 40% of marine primary productivity; thus, they are essential for global carbon biogeochemical cycling and climate. The availability of ten diatom genome sequences has facilitated evolutionary, biological and ecological research over the past decade; however, a complimentary map of the diatom proteome with direct measurements of proteins and peptides is still lacking. Here, we present a proteome map of the model marine diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana using high-resolution mass spectrometry combined with a proteogenomic strategy. In-depth proteomic profiling of three different growth phases and three nutrient-deficient samples identified 9526 proteins, accounting for ~ 81% of the predicted protein-coding genes. Proteogenomic analysis identified 1235 novel genes, 975 revised genes, 104 splice variants and 234 single amino acid variants. Furthermore, our quantitative proteomic analysis experimentally demonstrated that a considerable number of novel genes were differentially translated under different nutrient conditions. These findings substantially improve the genome annotation of T. pseudonana and provide insights into new biological functions of diatoms. This relatively comprehensive diatom proteome catalog will complement available diatom genome and transcriptome data to advance biological and ecological research of marine diatoms. Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s42995-022-00161-y.
RESUMO
Phaeocystis is a globally distributed Prymnesiophyte genus and usually forms massive harmful colony blooms, which impact marine ecosystem, mariculture, human health, and even threaten coastal nuclear power plant safety. However, the mechanisms behind the colony formation from the solitary cells remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated metabolic processes of both solitary and non-flagellated colonial cells of Phaeocystis globosa at different colony bloom stages in the subtropical Beibu Gulf using a metaproteomic approach. Temperature was significantly correlated with Phaeocystis colony bloom formation, and the flagellated motile solitary cells with abundant flagellum-associated proteins, such as tubulin and dynein, were the exclusive cellular morphotype at the solitary cell stage featured with temperatures ≥21 °C. When the temperature decreased to <21 °C, tiny colonies appeared and the flagellum-associated proteins were down-regulated in both solitary and non-flagellated colonial cells, while proteins involved in biosynthesis, chain polymerization and aggregation of glycosaminoglycan (GAG), a key constituent of gelatinous matrix, were up-regulated, indicating the central role of active GAG biosynthesis during the colony formation. Furthermore, light utilization, carbon fixation, nitrogen assimilation, and amino acid and protein synthesis were also enhanced to provide sufficient energy and substrates for GAG biosynthesis. This study highlighted that temperature induced re-allocation of energy and substances toward GAG biosynthesis is essential for colony bloom formation of P. globosa.

A two-dimensional (2D) multifunctional material, which couples multiple physical properties together, is both fundamentally intriguing and practically appealing. Here, based on first-principles calculations and tight-binding (TB) model analysis, the possibility of regulating the valley-contrasting physics and nontrivial topological properties via ferroelectricity is investigated in monolayer AsCH2OH. Reversible electric polarization is accessible via the rotation operation on the ligand. The broken inversion symmetry and the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) would lead to valley spin splitting, spin-valley coupling and valley-contrasting Berry curvature. More importantly, the reversal of electric polarization can realize the nonvolatile control of valley-dependent properties. Besides, the nontrivial topological state is confirmed in the monolayer AsCH2OH, which is robust against the rotation operation on the ligand. The magnitude of polarization, valley spin splitting and bulk band gap can be effectively modulated by the biaxial strain. The H-terminated SiC is demonstrated to be an appropriate candidate for encapsulating monolayer AsCH2OH, without affecting its exotic properties. These findings provide insights into the fundamental physics for the coupling of the valley-contrasting phenomenon, topological properties and ferroelectricity, and open avenues for exploiting innovative device applications.
RESUMO
Antiferromagnetic insulators have recently been proved to support spin current efficiently. Here, we report the dampinglike spin-orbit torque (SOT) in Pt/NiO/CoFeB has a strong temperature dependence and reverses the sign below certain temperatures, which is different from the slight variation with temperature in the Pt/CoFeB bilayer. The negative dampinglike SOT at low temperatures is proposed to be mediated by the magnetic interactions that tie with the "exchange bias" in Pt/NiO/CoFeB, in contrast to the thermal-magnon-mediated scenario at high temperatures. Our results highlight the promise to control the SOT through tuning the magnetic structure in multilayers.
RESUMO
Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is an advanced concrete with superior mechanical strength, ductility and durability properties. However, the influence of steel fiber on its constitutive laws and the specimen geometric dimension effect on its strength had not been paid enough attention. To investigate the effect of steel fibers on the properties of UHPC, specimens with different fiber volume contents and fiber types were tested. Meanwhile, the mechanical properties of UHPC at different ages from 3 days to 28 days were conducted. Moreover, specimens with various geometric dimensions were also prepared to study the effect of specimen geometric dimensions (dog-bone-shaped, prism and cylinder specimens) on the properties of UHPC. The results indicated that elastic modulus, tensile peak stress and the corresponding strain increased as the fiber volume content and curing age increased. Specimens with hooked-end fibers exhibited better tensile performance than those with straight fibers. Furthermore, different geometric dimensions of specimens significantly influenced the tensile properties of UHPC. Based on the experimental results, conversion factors were suggested for the transformation of strength obtained from specimens with different geometric dimensions to reference specimens. In addition, both compressive and tensile constitutive laws were proposed to generate the stress-strain relationship of UHPC.
RESUMO
The antiviral drug remdesivir has been used to treat the growing number of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. However, the drug is mainly excreted through urine and feces and introduced into the environment to affect non-target organisms, including fish, which has raised concerns about potential ecotoxicological effects on aquatic organisms. Moreover, studies on the ecological impacts of remdesivir on aquatic environments have not been reported. Here, we aimed to explore the toxicological impacts of microinjection of remdesivir on zebrafish early embryonic development and larvae and the associated mechanism. We found that 100 µM remdesivir delayed epiboly and impaired convergent movement of embryos during gastrulation, and dose-dependent increases in mortality and malformation were observed in remdesivir-treated embryos. Moreover, 10-100 µM remdesivir decreased blood flow and swimming velocity and altered the behavior of larvae. In terms of molecular mechanisms, 80 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by transcriptome analysis in the remdesivir-treated group. Some of these DEGs, such as manf, kif3a, hnf1ba, rgn, prkcz, egr1, fosab, nr4a1, and ptgs2b, were mainly involved in early embryonic development, neuronal developmental disorders, vascular disease and the blood flow pathway. These data reveal that remdesivir can impair early embryonic development, blood flow and behavior of zebrafish embryos/larvae, probably due to alterations at the transcriptome level. This study suggests that it is important to avoid the discharge of remdesivir to aquatic ecosystems and provides a theoretical foundation to hinder remdesivir-induced ecotoxicity to aquatic environments.
