Article Abstract

The research objective of our group is to improve the intrapartum detection of cardiotocography tracings associated with an increased risk of developing fetal acidosis and subsequent hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). The detection methods that we aim to develop must be sensitive to abnormal tracings without causing excessive unnecessary interventions. Past studies showed that the dynamic response of fetal heart rate (FHR) to uterine pressure (UP) during the intrapartum could be modelled using linear systems. In this study, we examined the assumption of linearity by comparing the performance of linear dynamic and nonlinear dynamic models of the UP-FHR system. The linear systems were defined by second-order state-space models. The nonlinear systems were defined by Hammerstein models: a cascade of a static nonlinearity and a linear second-order state-space model. Our results showed that nonlinear dynamic models were better than linear systems in 81.8% of UP-FHR segments.

The interplay between subcellular adhesion dynamics and cellular-scale deformations under shear flow drives key physiological and pathological processes. While both bond kinetics and fluid-cell interactions have been extensively studied in rolling adhesion, how bond characteristics quantitatively determine cellular velocity distributions remains unclear. In this study, we systematically investigate how force-free bond kinetics and intrinsic mechanical properties govern rolling adhesion dynamics, using macroscopic velocity distributions as a reference.

Polymorphic two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) exhibit diverse properties for optoelectronic applications. Here, utilizing phase-engineered MoTe as a prototypical platform, we comprehensively explored its ultrafast and nonlinear optical properties to complete the fundamental framework of phase-dependent optical phenomena in 2D TMDCs. Starting with the phase-selective synthesis of 2H- and 1T'-MoTe with tailored thicknesses, we revealed their distinct photocarrier relaxation mechanisms using intensive power-/temperature-/thickness-dependent transient absorption spectra (TAS).

Background: New-onset atrial fibrillation, a condition associated with adverse outcomes in the short and long term, is common in patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs). Identifying patients at high risk could inform trials of preventive interventions and help to target such interventions. We aimed to develop and externally validate a prediction model for new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients admitted to ICUs.

BackgroundDuring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), goal-directed perfusion (GDP) seeks to match oxygen delivery to metabolic demand, but the dynamics of oxygen extraction and intraoperative oxygen demand remain poorly understood, especially in paediatric populations. Existing models rely on limited data and assume, for example, a linear relationship between log oxygen demand and temperature.MethodsWe developed GARIX (Global AutoRegressive Integrated model with eXogenous variables and an equilibrium force) to predict minute-by-minute changes in oxygen extraction ratio (OER) using high-resolution intraoperative data.

α-Amylase is a high-value enzyme widely applied in food, feed, textile, and bioenergy industries, yet achieving stable high-level production in Aspergillus niger remains difficult due to nonlinear fermentation dynamics and limited real-time control. To this end, an AI-driven fermentation optimization framework was established by combining multivariate machine learning, Raman spectroscopy-based glucose monitoring, and time-series transcriptomics. Twelve algorithms were benchmarked, with Random Forest showing the best predictive power, while SHAP interpretation highlighted glucose as the dominant regulatory factor.
