Artificial van der Waals (vdW) heterojunctions assembled by atomically-thin two-dimensional (2D) materials have demonstrated new physical phenomena and unusual properties, thus triggering new electronic, optoelectronic, valleytronic and photocatalytic application. Herein, the electronic band structures of different vdW heterojunctions based on ternary Mo W Y (Y = S, Se; x = 0-1) monolayer with five stacking orders (AA, AA[Formula: see text], A[Formula: see text]B, AB, AB[Formula: see text]) have been investigated using first principle calculations. The direct/indirect band gap has been obtained in the AA[Formula: see text] stacking type-II heterojunctions, ranging from 0.538 eV to 1.260 eV, that are determined by the interlayer distances and stoichiometries. The estimated power conversion efficiency of the AA[Formula: see text] stacking type-II heterojunction varied from 9.1% to 23.4%. The type-I heterojunctions have also been predicted when semiconducting 2H-MoTe monolayer stacks with the specific Mo W Se monolayer, which are MoTe/MoWSe and MoTe/MoWSe. The reported theoretical results can provide broader 2D materials design possibility for the functional devices.

Background: In clinical practice, digital subtraction angiography (DSA) often suffers from misregistration artifact resulting from voluntary, respiratory, and cardiac motion during acquisition. Most prior efforts to register the background DSA mask to subsequent postcontrast images rely on key point registration using iterative optimization, which has limited real-time application.
Purpose: Leveraging state-of-the-art, unsupervised deep learning, we aim to develop a fast, deformable registration model to substantially reduce DSA misregistration in craniocervical angiography without compromising spatial resolution or introducing new artifacts.

Background: Emerging evidence suggests vitamin D plays a dual role in immune regulation, yet its interplay with genetic susceptibility in early-life allergy development remains poorly understood. This prospective cohort study investigated whether cord blood 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels interact with immunoregulatory gene variants to influence childhood food allergy risk.
Methods: A total of 1,049 mother-infant pairs from the Shanghai Allergy Cohort were stratified by cord blood 25(OH)D concentrations (<15, 15-25, >25 ng/mL).

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a rare but well-recognized complication of treatment with antiresorptive agents. Medication-related osteonecrosis of the external auditory canal (MROEAC), on the other hand, is even rarer and mostly reported during bisphosphonate exposure. Its pathophysiology is thought to involve complex multifactorial processes, including inhibition of bone remodeling, altered angiogenesis, infection, and inflammation.

This study introduces a Drought Adaptation Index (DAI), derived from Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (BLUP), as a method to assess drought resilience in switchgrass ( L.). A panel of 404 genotypes was evaluated under drought-stressed (CV) and well-watered (UC) conditions over four consecutive years (2019-2022).

Background: Coagulation disorders are potentially one of the most important pathogeneses of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) following acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). This study aimed to determine whether aortic dissection singularly and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery can activate coagulation pathways, promoting ARDS development in patients with ATAAD.
Methods: A total of 450 patients who received treatment at Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, between March 2023 and February 2024 were consecutively enrolled in this prospective cohort study.
