Surgical Management of Right Innominate Interarteriovenous Lymph Node Metastasis in Thyroid Carcinoma: Clinical Features and Operative Experience
1 Introduction Thyroid carcinoma (TC) is the most prevalent malignant tumor of the endocrinal gland and is frequently associated with regional lymph node metastasis [1]. Despite its generally positive prognosis, local lymph node recurrence remains a common occurrence, particularly in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). Among the potential sites of recurrence, the upper mediastinal lymph nodes are of particular concern [2-5].

Antagonism of β-klotho signaling by peptide 19 impairs wheel running in male mice and potentiates the cisplatin-induced decrease in wheel running
Abstract Background: Cancer-related fatigue results from competition between the metabolic demands of the tumor and those of skeletal muscles. This competition leads to an energy metabolism deficit, which is worsened by the detrimental effects of cancer therapy on mitochondrial function. Mitokines, such as Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21), produced under these conditions help tissues adjust their metabolism to cope with cellular stress.
Neoadjuvant ctDNA-MRD monitoring uncovers occult progression despite radiologic response in locally advanced hypopharyngeal carcinoma: a case report
Abstract Background: The assessment of treatment response during neoadjuvant therapy for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) relies largely on radiographic and endoscopic evaluations, which may fail to detect minimal residual disease (MRD). Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-based MRD monitoring has emerged as a sensitive biomarker capable of revealing molecular disease activity that is not captured by imaging. Evidence supporting its use in the neoadjuvant setting of HNSCC remains limited.

Accurate Prediction of Protein Structural Flexibility by Deep Learning Integrating Intricate Atomic Structures and Cryo-EM Density Information - Nature Communications
Abstract The dynamics of proteins are crucial for understanding their mechanisms. However, computationally predicting protein dynamic information has proven challenging. Here, we propose a neural network model, RMSF-net, which outperforms previous methods and produces the best results in a large-scale protein dynamics dataset; this model can accurately infer the dynamic information of a protein in only a few seconds.
Identification of circRNA‐disease associations via multi‐model fusion and ensemble learning
1 INTRODUCTION Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNA with a closed structure, and there is accumulating evidence indicating that circRNA plays an important role in biological processes such as the genetic aetiology of human complex diseases.1 circRNA was first observed in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells.2 In the past, limited by technology, the research on circRNA has not been well-developed, but in recent years, high-throughput sequencing technologies have developed...

Multilocus Phylogeny and Characterization of Five Undescribed Aquatic Carnivorous Fungi (Orbiliomycetes)
1. Introduction Nematode-trapping fungi (NTF) are a group of fungi that possess a unique trapping structure to capture nematodes for nutrition [1,2,3,4]. NTF in Orbiliomycetes are considered the core representatives of NTF due to their rich species diversity, and intricate and diverse trapping structures, as well as their important role in maintaining ecological balance and their potential value in the bio-control of harmful nematodes [4,5,6,7].
MarkerDetector: A method for robust fiducial marker detection in electron micrographs using wavelet-based template
Electron tomography (ET) is an important tool for investigating the internal organization of cells at a resolution of a few nanometers (McIntosh et al., 2005). To create a 3D volume, a series of micrographs are captured from the sample at various tilt angles and then reconstructed using tomographic algorithms (Fernandez, 2012).

trRosettaRNA: automated prediction of RNA 3D structure with transformer network - Nature Communications
Abstract RNA 3D structure prediction is a long-standing challenge. Inspired by the recent breakthrough in protein structure prediction, we developed trRosettaRNA, an automated deep learning-based approach to RNA 3D structure prediction. The trRosettaRNA pipeline comprises two major steps: 1D and 2D geometries prediction by a transformer network; and 3D structure folding by energy minimization. Benchmark tests suggest that trRosettaRNA outperforms traditional automated methods.
Factor Structure of Student Science-Learning Motivation: Evidence from TIMSS U.S. Data
1. Introduction Student motivation, or the drive that sustains students’ attention and engagement in learning [] (Schunk and DiBenedetto, 2020), continues to be a major focus of national and international research and policy. A large body of literature demonstrates motivation as a crucial antecedent to students’ academic achievement in science [,,] (Pintrich, 2003; Wigfield and Eccles, 2002; and Zhang et al., 2021).
Conidia Fusion: A Mechanism for Fungal Adaptation to Nutrient-Poor Habitats
Abstract : Conidia fusion (CF) is a commonly observed structure in fungi. However, it has not been systematically studied. This study examined 2457 strains of nematode-trapping fungi (NTF) to explore the species specificity, physiological period, and physiological significance of CF. The results demonstrated that only six species of Arthrobotrys can form CF among the sixty-five tested NTF species.

Postbuckling behavior and failure prediction of large‐size composite C‐beam under bending‐shear coupling load
Abstract In this article, a novel experimental device that combines bending and shearing was proposed to investigate the load-bearing performance of large-size C-beam structures against bending-shear buckling, allowing for the adjustment of bending-shearing ratio. Three different bending-shear coupling conditions were performed for test loading, and the strain gauges were carried out to detect the strain distribution for postbuckling performance of the large-size C-beam.

PGAR-Zernike: an ultra-fast, accurate and fully open-source structure retrieval toolkit for convenient structural database construction
New Results doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.03.18.533250 Abstract With the release of AlphaFold2, protein model databases are growing at an unprecedented rate. Efficient structure retrieval schemes are becoming more and more important to quickly analyze structure models. The core problem in structural retrieval is how to measure the similarity between structures. Some structure alignment algorithms can solve this problem but at a substantial time cost.
Analysis of tensile damage characteristics of single filled bolt hole in laminate
Abstract The strength of filled bolt holes of composites is an important parameter in developing the bearing bypass envelope curves for bolted joint structures in engineering design. This paper presents the procedures of tensile failure strengths and damage for a laminate with a filled bolt hole. Tests of two different cases, open-hole tension (OHT) and filled-hole tension (FHT), were performed and repeated seven times, respectively.
Frontiers | Automatic Detection of Fiducial Landmarks Toward the Development of an Application for Digitizing the Locations of EEG Electrodes: Occipital Structure Sensor-Based Work | Neuroscience
Introduction An important goal for electroencephalography (EEG)-based functional brain studies is to estimate the locations of brain sources produced by scalp-recorded signals. The localization of such sources requires precise knowledge of the EEG sensors coordinates, while the employed method should be accurate, fast, reproducible, and cheap (Koessler et al., 2007). The coordinates of EEG electrodes are highly relevant to the solution of the inverse problem.
