From dysbiosis to precision therapy: decoding the gut-bladder axis in bladder carcinogenesis.

The gut-bladder axis (GBA), a bidirectional network connecting gastrointestinal and urinary systems, has recently emerged as a pivotal focus in bladder cancer research. Beyond conventional risk factors, gut dysbiosis, aberrant microbial metabolites, and neuro-immune pathway disruptions have been implicated in tumorigenesis and progression. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), microbial-derived metabolites, are shown to indirectly modulate tumor behavior through immune microenvironment regulation and inflammatory response attenuation.

Study on the Transverse Properties of T800-Grade Unidirectional Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymers.

This paper focuses on the transverse tensile and compressive mechanical properties of T800-grade unidirectional (UD) carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRPs). Firstly, transverse tensile and compressive tests were conducted on UD composite laminates, yielding corresponding stress-strain curves. The results indicated that, for tension, the transverse tensile modulus, strength, and failure strain were 8.
