Animal coloration plays a fundamental role in communication, camouflage, aposematism, mimicry and thermoregulation, and has strong implications for adaptation and diversification. Phenotypic plasticity of color traits can thus affect social, reproductive, antipredator, or thermoregulatory behavior and determining the causes and consequences of color change helps us understand evolution. In contrast to seasonal or ontogenetic color changes, physiological color change in response to fine-scale changes in environmental conditions has received less attention.

Technological innovations in robot-assisted ultrasound (RAUS) have remarkably advanced the development of precision and intelligent medical imaging diagnosis. This study aims to use bibliometric methods to systematically analyze the technological evolution and research frontiers in the RAUS field, providing valuable insights for future research. This study used the Web of Science Core Collection database to retrieve English-language research papers and reviews related to RAUS published between 2000 and 2024.

The defence systems bacteria use to protect themselves from their viruses are mechanistically and genetically diverse. Yet the ecological conditions that predict when defences are selected for remain unclear, as substantial variation in defence prevalence has been reported. Experimental work in simple communities suggests ecological factors can determine when specific defence systems are most beneficial, but applying these findings to complex communities has been challenging.

Background: Chemotherapy has played an essential role in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) management since the 1980s, when its radiosensitizing effects were first recognized. The landmark Intergroup 0099 trial established concurrent cisplatin-based chemoradiotherapy as the standard for locoregionally advanced NPC, demonstrating significant survival benefits over radiotherapy alone. As an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated malignancy with distinct geographical distribution (endemic in southern China and Southeast Asia), NPC presents unique therapeutic challenges.

Comprehensive control of fine particulate matter (PM) and ozone (O) is essential for improving environmental quality. In this study, spatiotemporal pattern mining methods were used to study the spatiotemporal evolution of PM and O in Shandong Province, and Kolmogorov‒Zurbenko (KZ) filtering and stepwise regression methods were integrated to study their influencing factors. The results revealed that (1) from 2014-2023, the PM concentrations in Shandong were high in winter and low in summer, forming a "U"-shaped pattern, and the O concentration showed a seasonal pattern of summer > spring > fall > winter, revealing an inverted "U"-shaped pattern.
