RESUMO
A hardware-based parallel decoding scheme is proposed to address the problems of correctness and efficiency of software decoding for ternary optical computers. Based on the minimal primitive structure of the ternary optical computer, a hardware decoding voltage divider circuit and single-pixel transcoding of operation results are designed. A parallel decoding scheme is designed for the SJ-MSD unconventional adder based on Shen's theorem and the TW-MSD conventional adder under the degraded design theory, and a corresponding addressing scheme is proposed for the access of decoding results. After comprehensive consideration, the decoding scheme is finally selected as the time-sharing combination. The experiments show that the parallel decoding scheme of the ternary optical computer is practical and feasible.
RESUMO
Breast cancer is a high-risk disease with a high mortality rate among women. Chemotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of breast cancer. However, chemotherapy eventually results in tumours that are resistant to drugs. In recent years, many studies have revealed that the activation of Wnt/ß-catenin signalling is crucial for the emergence and growth of breast tumours as well as the development of drug resistance. Additionally, drugs that target this pathway can reverse drug resistance in breast cancer therapy. Traditional Chinese medicine has the properties of multi-target and tenderness. Therefore, integrating traditional Chinese medicine and modern medicine into chemotherapy provides a new strategy for reversing the drug resistance of breast tumours. This paper mainly reviews the possible mechanism of Wnt/ß-catenin in promoting the process of breast tumour drug resistance, and the progress of alkaloids extracted from traditional Chinese medicine in the targeting of this pathway in order to reverse the drug resistance of breast cancer.

As a new radar system with improved performance, distributed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar provides a new idea for the development of netted radar. Aiming at the limited resource allocation problem of netted radar, this paper extends the idea of distributed MIMO radar to netted radar and proposes a resource scheduling algorithm for multitarget imaging in distributed netted radar based on the maximum scheduling benefits. Under the condition of the cognition of the target characteristics, the algorithm comprehensively considers the angle and dwell time to complete the multiradar and multitarget matching. Then it uses the principle of compressed sensing to calculate the pulse resources required for sparse imaging of each target on the corresponding radar. In this paper, the scheduling benefit of a radar system is expressed by weighting the three factors of the scheduling success rate, the hit value rate and the pulse resource consumption rate. The resource scheduling model is established according to the maximum scheduling benefits and solved using a heuristic algorithm. The simulation results show that compared with the traditional algorithm, this method improves the scheduling benefits of the radar system.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new infectious disease. To reveal the hepatic injury related to this disease and its clinical significance, we conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study that included 5,771 adult patients with COVID-19 pneumonia in Hubei Province. APPROACH AND RESULTS: We reported the distributional and temporal patterns of liver injury indicators in these patients and determined their associated factors and death risk. Longitudinal liver function tests were retrospectively analyzed and correlated with the risk factors and death. Liver injury dynamic patterns differed in alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and total bilirubin (TBIL). AST elevated first, followed by ALT, in severe patients. ALP modestly increased during hospitalization and largely remained in the normal range. The fluctuation in TBIL levels was mild in the non-severe and the severe groups. AST abnormality was associated with the highest mortality risk compared with the other indicators of liver injury during hospitalization. Common factors associated with elevated liver injury indicators were lymphocyte count decrease, neutrophil count increase, and male gender. CONCLUSION: The dynamic patterns of liver injury indicators and their potential risk factors may provide an important explanation for the COVID-19-associated liver injury. Because elevated liver injury indicators, particularly AST, are strongly associated with the mortality risk, our study indicates that these parameters should be monitored during hospitalization.

Stylommatophora is a main clade of Gastropoda that encompasses approximately 112 gastropod families and may exceed a total of 30,000 species. Twenty-four complete stylommatophoran mitogenomes have been sequenced to date, yet our understanding of mitochondrial evolution in stylommatophorans is still in its infancy. To further expand the set of available mitogenomes, we sequenced the mitogenome of Meghimatium bilineatum (Arionoidea: Philomycidae), a widespread land slug in East Asia. This is the first report on a mitogenome of the superfamily Arionoidea, and indeed on a terrestrial slug. The mitogenome of Meghimatium bilineatum comprises 13,972â¯bp and exhibits a novel, highly distinctive gene arrangement among the Stylommatophora. Phylogenetic reconstructions based on the sequences of all protein-coding genes consistently recovered Meghimatium bilineatum as sister-group of the Succineidae. A phylogenetic reconstruction based on gene order, however, suggested a highly divergent tree topology, which is less credible when taking into account prior knowledge of stylommatophoran relationships. Our CREx (Common interval Rearrangement Explorer) analysis suggested that three successive events of tandem duplication random loss (TDRL) best explain the evolutionary process of gene order rearrangement in Meghimatium bilineatum from an ancestral stylommatophoran mitogenome. The present example offers new insights into the mechanisms of mitogenome rearrangements in gastropods at large and into the usefulness of mitogenomic gene order as a phylogenetic marker.

The Yangtze River Basin in China is one of the global hotspots of freshwater mussel (order Unionida) diversity with 68 nominal species. Few studies have tested the validity of these nominal species. Some taxa from the Yangtze unionid fauna have not been adequately examined using molecular data and well-positioned phylogenetically with respect to the global Unionida. We evaluated species boundaries of Chinese freshwater mussels, and disentangled their phylogenetic relationships within the context of the global freshwater mussels based on the multi-locus data and complete mitochondrial genomes. Moreover, we produced the time-calibrated phylogeny of Unionida and explored patterns of diversification. COI barcode data suggested the existence of 41 phylogenetic distinct species from our sampled 40 nominal taxa inhabiting the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference analyses on three loci (COI, 16S, and 28S) and complete mitochondrial genomes showed that the subfamily Unioninae sensu stricto was paraphyletic, and the subfamily Anodontinae should be subsumed under Unioninae. In addition, we described two new tribes (Aculamprotulini tribe nov. and Lepidodesmini tribe nov.) in the subfamily Unioninae and one new genus (Parvasolenaiagen. nov.) in the subfamily Gonideinae. Molecular dating analysis suggested freshwater mussels diversified at 346.1â¯Mya (HPDâ¯=â¯286.6-409.9). The global diversification rate for Unionida was estimated to be 0.025â¯species/Myr. Our study found only a single well-supported rate shift in Unionida diversification, occurring at the base of the subfamily Ambleminae. The evolution of active host-attraction may have triggered the burst of speciation in Ambleminae, and the environment and geography of the Mississippi River Basin likely sustained this radiation.

The family Margaritiferidae encompasses 12 valid species, which are distributed widely but disjunctively in the Northern Hemisphere. A lack of a well resolved and temporally calibrated phylogenetic framework of Margaritiferidae has made it difficult to discuss the evolutionary pattern and process. Phylogenetic relationships between five major clades, which were revealed in earlier studies, remain elusive and unresolved. Lamprotula rochechouartii has long been classified within the family Unionidae based on shell morphology, but our preliminary molecular study on this species made us hypothesize that it has an affinity with margaritiferids. Hence, five loci (COI, 16S, 18S, 28S and histone H3) were used to investigate the phylogenetic position of L. rochechouartii and intra-familial relationships within Margaritiferidae using various partitioning strategies. Moreover, two mitochondrial genomes were newly obtained to further resolve and validate the five-clade relationships within Margaritiferidae in a broad view of Unionoida evolution. Both five-gene and mitogenome datasets strongly advocated treating Lamprotula rochechouartii as Margaritifera rochechouartiicomb. nov. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference analyses using partitioned five-gene dataset resulted in various topologies, but five well-supported clades were obtained. The most probable cladistic relationships generated by five-gene dataset analyses were identical to subsequent whole mitogenome analyses except the position of M. monodonta. M. rochechouartii and M. laosensis had a well-supported sister relationship and formed a basal clade splitting from the rest of the family. Based on six reliable fossils, crown age of the extant Margaritiferidae was estimated during the Late Cretaceous at 88.3 Ma (95% HPDâ¯=â¯66.2-117.4). But we hypothesized a much earlier origin of this family due to the Permian stem age (meanâ¯=â¯257â¯Ma, 95% HPDâ¯=â¯230.0-296.0) and a high extinction rate in the whole order. Biogeographic scenarios supported a Laurasian origin of extant Margaritiferidae during the Late Cretaceous, and suggested that Asian margaritiferids may have had two origins, having either Asia (M. rochechouartii, M. laosensis) or North America (M. dahurica, M. laevis, and M. middendorffi) as ancestral. The newly added Margaritiferidae species M. rochechouartii expands our recognized distribution range of modern margaritiferids. Our results indicate that whole mitogenome sequences can be used to reconstruct robust phylogenetic relationships for freshwater mussels, especially with the help of adding M-type mitogenomes.

A Gram-staining-positive, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile, non-spore-forming bacterial strain, designated GTGR-8(T), which formed white colonies, was isolated from roots of Phytolacca acinosa Roxb. collected from Taibai Mountain in Shaanxi Province, north-west China. Strain GTGR-8(T) grew optimally at 28-30 °C, at pH 7.0-8.0 and in the absence of NaCl. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain GTGR-8(T) was a member of the genus Solirubrobacter and was closely related to Solirubrobacter pauli B33D1(T) (98.9% similarity), Solirubrobacter ginsenosidimutans BXN5-15(T) (97.0%) and Solirubrobacter soli Gsoil 355(T) (96.9%). No other recognized bacterial species showed more than 94.2% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the novel isolate. The only respiratory quinone of strain GTGR-8(T) was MK-7(H4) and the major fatty acids (>5%) were iso-C16â:â0, C18â:â1ω9c, C17â:â1ω8c, C18â:â3ω6c (6,9,12) and C17â:â1ω6c. The DNA G+C content was 71.0 mol%. DNA-DNA relatedness for strain GTGR-8(T) with respect to its closest relatives, S. pauli KCTC 9974(T) and S. ginsenosidimutans KCTC 19420(T), was 52.5 and 24.5%, respectively. Based on phenotypic, phylogenetic and genotypic data, strain GTGR-8(T) is considered to represent a novel species in the genus Solirubrobacter, for which the name Solirubrobacter phytolaccae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GTGR-8(T) (â=âCCTCC AB 2013011(T)â=âKCTC 29190(T)).

The increasing global energy consumption has led to the rapid development of renewable energy storage technologies. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been extensively studied and utilized for reliable, efficient, and sustainable energy storage. Nevertheless, designing new materials for LIB applications with high capacity and long-term stability is highly desired but remains a challenging task. Recently, covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as superior candidates for LIB applications due to their high porosity, well-defined pores, highly customizable structure, and tunable functionalities. These merits enable the preparation of tailored COFs with predesigned redox-active moieties and suitable porous channels that can improve the lithium-ion storage and transportation. This review summarizes the recent progress in the development of COFs and their composites for a variety of LIB applications, including (quasi) solid-state electrolytes, electrode materials, and separators. Finally, the challenges and potential future directions of employing COFs for LIBs are also briefly discussed, further promoting the foundation of this class of exciting materials for future advances in energy-related applications.

RESUMO
The monotypic freshwater mussel genus Diaurora Cockerell, 1903 has long been enigmatic due to its rarity and morphological confusion with Acuticosta. In this study, we comprehensively redescribed Diauroraaurorea (Heude, 1883) through a detailed analysis of shell morphology and molecular phylogenetics of recently collected specimens. Moreover, a new species, Diauroralaevesp. nov., was identified from the Fuyishui River, a tributary of the Zishui River in Shaoyang County, Shaoyang City, Hunan Province, China. Molecular phylogenetic analyses showed that D.aurorea and D.laevesp. nov. were reciprocally monophyletic and formed a clade as sister to Schistodesmus. Our study underscores the necessity of further exploring the diversity of freshwater mussels in understudied small tributaries throughout China.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: To study the genetic basis of autosomal dominant posterior polar cataracts in two Chinese pedigrees. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were collected and genomic DNA was isolated. A genome-wide scan, using microsatellite markers at approximately 10-cm intervals and additional microsatellite markers for the positive region, was performed. Haplotype data were processed using Cyrillic software (version 2.1) to define the region of the disease gene. Mutation analysis was carried out for candidate genes. Sequencing data were analyzed with the software Sequence Scanner v1.0. RESULTS: A maximum two-point LOD score (Z (max)) of 2.53 and 2.03 was obtained at marker D2S125 with recombination θ = 0.00 in the two families. The possible disease genes were located at approximately 8.44-cM between the marker D2S125 and the terminal of chromosome 2q, namely, 2q37-qter. Candidate genes, such as Gamma-crystallins (CRYGA-D), septin 2 (SEPT2), aquaporin 12B (AQP12B), and chemokine orphan receptor 7 (CXCR7), were sequenced but no causative mutations were found. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that an unidentified gene in chromosome 2q37-qter is associated with posterior polar cataract, which may have an implication in understanding the genetic and molecular mechanisms of cataracts.

The discovery of hybrids between Ascaris lumbricoides and Ascaris suum has complicated our understanding of the relationship between the two species. We examined the same Ascaris specimens (48 from humans and 48 from pigs) using two methods: microsatellite markers combined with Bayesian clustering and PCR-RFLP of the nuclear internal transcribed spacer region. The results obtained by the two methods were inconsistent but showed that hybrid Ascaris identified through both approaches could infect pigs. The results of this study suggest that PCR-RFLP of ITS alone is not suitable for molecular identification of human-type and pig-type Ascaris hybrids. Use of multiple SSR markers combined with Bayesian analysis was the most reliable method in our study. Our results indicate that, in addition to host-specific Ascaris types, there may be some that do not show host specificity. Our results show for the first time that hybrid individuals can infect pigs as well as humans. This study has important theoretical and practical implications, including suggesting the need to re-evaluate long-term ascariasis control strategies.

The freshwater gastropod Tarebia granifera (Lamarck, 1816) is found in Taiwan, Hainan, and Guangdong provinces in China, and is one of the main intermediate hosts of trematodes that infect humans. The taxonomic positions of some cerithioidean families are still unclear, and whole mitochondrial genome studies are scarce in the Thiaridae. In this study, we describe the complete mitogenome of Tarebia granifera (Lamarck, 1816). The mitogenome is 15,555 bp in length, with a total of 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes. It is consistent with the essential features of previously studied mitochondrial genomes of species belonging to the superfamily Cerithioidea. Our study demonstrates the usefulness of mitogenomic data for resolving phylogenetic relationships of families within Cerithioidea and may also contribute to the prevention and control of the parasitic diseases caused by trematodes, which use T. granifera as an intermediate host.
RESUMO
Background: The water level of Poyang Lake (China) fluctuates seasonally. Shahu Lake, a smaller body of water connected to Poyang Lake during the wet season, is separated in the dry season. Due to a special fishing method termed 'lake enclosed in autumn', the water level is lowered and reaches its lowest point in January, which is <0.5 m deep in the middle of the lake. Our research investigated the effect of water level changes on the zooplankton community composition in Shahu Lake. Methods: We used both DNA metabarcoding method (MBC) (18S rRNA gene V4 region) and morphological method (MOI) to track the zooplankton community structure over four seasons in Shahu Lake (China). Results: Totals of 90 and 98 species of zooplankton were detected by MOI and MBC, respectively, with rotifers being the main zooplankton component. The α-diversity index of both methods increased from spring to summer and decreased from summer to autumn, reaching the lowest value in winter. NMDS and a cluster analysis showed that all zooplankton communities detected by MOI and MBC were significantly separated by season. The zooplankton community in winter was separated from that of the other three seasons, but the summer and autumn communities were more similar. Conclusions: Changes in the water level had significant effects on the zooplankton community composition. We found that MBC was more able to detect the differences in the zooplankton composition than MOI. MBC also had more advantages in copepod recognition. In our study, 37 species of copepods were detected by MBC, but only 11 species were detected by MOI. We concluded that MBC should be used to research the seasonal variations of zooplankton.
RESUMO
Accurate species identification is crucial for developing conservation strategies for freshwater mussels, one of the most imperiled faunas in the world. Traditionally, mussel species description primarily relied on conchological characters. However, shell morphology has great variability, which leads to the complexity of species delimitation. As endemic species to China, Lamprotula caveata was originally described by Heude (1877). Lamprotula quadrangulosus and Lamprotula contritus were considered for synonymization of L. caveata based on shell variants in the early 20th century, which has been long debated due to lack of rigorous molecular analysis. Moreover, great morphological variation caused doubt whether there are cryptic species. In this study, we used a combined phylogenetic and morphometric approach to verify the validity of the synonymization of L. caveata. The results of molecular species delimitation showed that two molecular operational taxonomic units (MOTUs) were identified in Lamprotula spp., including the L. leaii lineage and the complex lineage (L. quadrangulosa, L. cornuumlunae, L. contritus, and L. caveata). Phylogenetic analyses revealed that L. cornuumlunae formed a basal monophyletic clade, whose divergence time was relatively recent (4.26 Ma [95% HPD = 1.91-7.22 Ma]), and L. contritus, L. caveata, and L. quadrangulosa formed a large polytomy group with very shallow branches. In the previous study, we have demonstrated the validity of L. cornuumlunae. The molecular evidences supported that the complex (L. quadrangulosa + L. contritus + L. caveata) was a valid species; L. quadrangulosa and L. contritus were synonyms of L. caveata. In addition, three morphospecies (L. quadrangulosa, L. contritus, and L. caveata) were aggregated without clear differentiation based on shell morphometric analysis. We confirmed multiple phenotypes in L. caveata for species identification and presumed that the phenotypic plasticity was a response to specific habitats. This study clarified the diversity and phylogeny of the Lamprotula group, which is a crucial step for developing new conservation and management strategies for this imperiled group.
RESUMO
Freshwater-fish diversity declined rapidly due to multiple anthropogenic disturbances. The loss of fish diversity often manifested itself in taxonomic homogenization over time. Knowledge of multi-faceted diversity (i.e., species, functional, and phylogenetic diversity) perspectives is important for biodiversity assessment and conservation planning. Here, we analyzed the change of the species diversity and phylogenetic diversity of fish in 2008 and 2021 as well as explored the driver factors of the biodiversity patterns in the Lushan National Nature Reserve. The results showed that the species diversity and phylogenetic diversity of fish have declined from 2008 to 2021, with five species lost over time. We found an overall homogenization trend in the fish fauna of the study area, with a 4% increase in taxonomic similarity among the rivers. Additionally, we found that community structure of fish was significantly different among the rivers, and environmental filtering was the main contributor to the phylogenetic diversity of fish in 2008 and 2021. This study provides new insight into the patterns and drivers of fish-biodiversity change in the broader Yangtze River basin and informs management efforts.
RESUMO
Freshwater ecosystems face multiple threats to their stability globally. Poyang Lake is the largest lake in China, but its habitat has been seriously degraded because of human activities and natural factors (e.g. climate change), resulting in a decline in freshwater biodiversity. Zooplankton are useful indicators of environmental stressors because they are sensitive to external perturbations. DNA metabarcoding is an approach that has gained significant traction by aiding ecosystem conservation and management. Here, the seasonal and spatial variability in the zooplankton diversity were analyzed in the Poyang Lake Basin using DNA metabarcoding. The results showed that the community structure of zooplankton exhibited significant seasonal and spatial variability using DNA metabarcoding, where the community structure was correlated with turbidity, water temperature, pH, total phosphorus, and chlorophyll-a. These results indicated habitat variations affected by human activities and seasonal change could be the main driving factors for the variations of zooplankton community. This study also provides an important reference for the management of aquatic ecosystem health and conservation of aquatic biodiversity.
RESUMO
We propose a control method for the optical components of a dynamically reconfigurable optical platform, the ternary optical computer (TOC). The optical components are made of liquid-crystal cell arrays (LCCAs) and polarizers, so the control method is for generating the pilot signals of the LCCAs to meet user demands. In this work, we first briefly introduce the TOC theory, the modules in the TOC monitor system, and the addressing of these LCCAs. Then we focus on the method for generating the control information (CI) of optical components, i.e., the encoder and the operator in the TOC according to the operands and the information about the basic operating units needed by an operation. In addition, we define data structures, some of which store the information to generate the CI and others that mainly store the generated CI. Finally we provide an example to verify the proposed method and conduct an experiment to generate the LCCA CI. The results demonstrate the correctness and feasibility of the method.
