Study on the Differentiation of Infiltrating Breast Cancer Molecular Subtypes Based on Ultrasound Radiomics.

Objective: To establish and validate a 2-dimensional ultrasound (US) radiomics model for the noninvasive preoperative differentiation of various molecular subtypes of infiltrating breast cancer (IBC).

Methods: A retrospective analysis of 210 female patients diagnosed with IBC through surgical operation or needle biopsy pathology at our hospital between May 2019 and February 2024 was conducted. Relevant data were collected to establish predictive models for different molecular subtypes of IBC.

Engineered Mutants of a Marine Photosynthetic Purple Nonsulfur Bacterium with Increased Volumetric Productivity of Polyhydroxyalkanoate Bioplastics.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are green and sustainable bioplastics that could replace petrochemical synthetic plastics without posing environmental threats to living organisms. In addition, sustainable PHA production could be achieved using marine photosynthetic purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSBs) that utilize natural seawater, sunlight, carbon dioxide gas, and nitrogen gas for growth. However, PHA production using marine photosynthetic PNSBs has not been economically feasible yet due to its high cost and low productivity.

Gene Expression Data Based Deep Learning Model for Accurate Prediction of Drug-Induced Liver Injury in Advance.

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI), one of the most common adverse effects, leads to drug development failure or withdrawal from the market in most cases, showing an emerging challenge that is to accurately predict DILI in the early stage. Recently, the vast amount of gene expression data provides us valuable information for distinguishing DILI on a genomic scale. Moreover, the deep learning algorithm is a powerful strategy to automatically learn important features from raw and noisy data and shows great success in the field of medical diagnosis.

Genetic manipulation of sex ratio for the large-scale breeding of YY super-male and XY all-male yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco (Richardson)).

Yellow catfish has become one of the most important freshwater aquaculture species in China. The mono-sex male yellow catfish has important application value in aquaculture because the male grows generally faster than the sibling females under the same conditions. This study has screened YY super-male and YY physiological female yellow catfish by sex reversal, gynogenesis, and progeny testing, which can help to achieve the large-scale production of YY super-male and XY all-male.

Systematic synthesis and characterization of single-crystal lanthanide orthophosphate nanowires.

A simple hydrothermal method has been developed for the systematic synthesis of lanthanide orthophosphate crystals with different crystalline phases and morphologies. It has been shown that pure LnPO(4) compounds change structure with decreasing Ln ionic radius: i.e.

A simple method to synthesize Dy(OH)(3) and Dy(2)O(3) nanotubes.

Here we report the first synthesis of Dy(OH)(3) nanotubes by facile hydrothermal treatment of bulky Dy(2)O(3) crystals. Dy(OH)(3) nanotubes were calcined to produce Dy(2)O(3) nanotubes. Ho(OH)(3) and Ho(2)O(3) nanotubes were also obtained by the same method.

Syntheses, crystal structures, and luminescent properties of lanthanide complexes with tripodal ligands bearing benzimidazole and pyridine groups.

Two tripodal ligands, bis(2-benzimidazolylmethyl)(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (L(1)) and bis(2-pyridylmethyl)(2-benzimidazolylmethyl)amine (L(2)), were synthesized. With the third chromophoric ligand antipyrine (Antipy), three series of lanthanide(III) complexes were prepared: [LnL(1)(Antipy)(3)](ClO(4))(3) (series A), [LnL(1)(Antipy)Cl(H(2)O)(2)]Cl(2)(H(2)O)(2) (series B), and [LnL(2)(NO(3))(3)] (series C). The nitrate salt of the free ligand H(2)L(1).
