Integrated follicular fluid multi-omics identifies steroidogenic dysregulation and a candidate SHBG-associated rescue framework in poor ovarian response
Abstract Introduction: Poor ovarian response (POR) remains a major obstacle in assisted reproductive technology, yet the follicular microenvironmental determinants of impaired ovarian sensitivity are poorly understood. This study aimed to characterize the multi_omics landscape of the follicular fluid in POR and to explore potential therapeutic candidates and underlying mechanisms.

Spin-noise-induced synchronization between non-overlapping laser beams
Noise-induced synchronizations have led to diverse phenomena and applications. Here, we propose and demonstrate an approach towards inducing synchronizations between non-overlapping laser beams by intrinsic spin noise. Two linearly polarized and non-overlapping laser beams propagate through a vapor of flying unpolarized alkali atoms and capture their correlated noise properties by the atom-light interaction, resulting in synchronization between the two laser beams.

Cu@Co with Dilatation Strain for High‐Performance Electrocatalytic Reduction of Low‐Concentration Nitric Oxide
Electrocatalytic reduction of nitric oxide (NO) to ammonia (NH3) is a clean and sustainable strategy to simultaneously remove NO and synthesize NH3. However, the conversion of low concentration NO to NH3 is still a huge challenge. In this work, the dilatation strain between Cu and Co interface over Cu@Co catalyst is built up and investigated for electroreduction of low concentration NO (volume ratio of 1%) to NH3.

Tribological Properties of Groove-Textured Ti-6Al-4V Alloys with Solid Lubricants in Dry Sliding against GCr15 Steel Balls
1. Introduction Titanium alloys are widely used in engineering fields, including in energy components, aerospace, and automotive engineering, because of their low density, high specific strength, and corrosion resistance [1,2,3]. Among the numerous titanium alloy materials, the Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy is the most widely used. However, its low hardness and low wear resistance limit its high performance in engineering applications [4,5,6,7].

All sows were randomly divided into a control (CON) group (basal diet) and a YC group (basal diet with 0.5% YC during gestation and 0.8% YC during lactation) with 30 replicates in each.
A Review of Nitrogen-Doped Graphene Aerogel in Electromagnetic Wave Absorption
2. Synthesis of Nitrogen-Doped Graphene Aerogel Nitrogen can be incorporated into carbon through three main methods: in situ doping (or pre-doping), post-doping, and direct pyrolysis []. In the in situ doping method, nitrogen is introduced during the growth of carbon materials, typically through vapor deposition techniques like chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Ammonia (NH3) is commonly used as the nitrogen dopant in this method.

Self-supervised learning for single-pixel imaging via dual-domain constraints
Abstract Deep-learning-augmented single-pixel imaging (SPI) provides an efficient solution for target compressive sensing. However, the conventional supervised strategy suffers from laborious training and poor generalization. In this Letter, we report a self-supervised learning method for SPI reconstruction. It introduces dual-domain constraints to integrate the SPI physics model into a neural network.

Coupling Fe(II)/Fe(III) Redox Mediated SO2 Conversion with Hydrogen Production
Abstract Water electrolysis is recognized as a green hydrogen production technology, but the high voltage required for anodic oxygen evolution reaction restricts the practical application. In this work, a Fe(II)/Fe(III) redox mediated SO2 conversion is proposed to couple the cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction to achieve sulfur dioxide conversion and hydrogen production at low voltage.

A meta-analysis of serum lipid profiles in premature ovarian insufficiency
Abstract Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), defined as loss of normal ovarian functions before the age of 40 years, occurs in at least 1% of all women. POI not only affects the reproductive system but also causes many health problems and psychological stress. Abnormal serum lipid profile leads to cardiovascular diseases that are strongly associated with the mortality of POI. To date, several studies have examined the levels of different serum lipids in patients with POI.

Abstract The invention of the maser stimulated revolutionary technologies such as lasers and atomic clocks. Yet, realizations of masers are still limited; in particular, the physics of masers remains unexplored in periodically driven (Floquet) systems, which are generally defined by time-periodic Hamiltonians and enable observation of many exotic phenomena such as time crystals.
