The construction of ammonia gas sensors with wide detection ranges is important for exhalation diagnosis and environmental pollution monitoring. To achieve a wide detection range, sensitive materials must possess excellent spatial confinement and large active surfaces to enhance gas adsorption. In this study, an ammonia microwave gas sensor with a wide detection range of 10 ppb-0.55 v/v% at room temperature was fabricated by incorporating hollow multishelled-structured BaTiO (HoMS-BaTiO). The effect of the number of shells and the quantity of the sensitive material on the gas-sensing performance was investigated, and two-layered HoMS-BaTiO demonstrated the best response at high concentrations (0.15-0.55 v/v%). Conversely, single-layered HoMS-BaTiO displayed outstanding performance at low concentrations (10 ppb-0.15 v/v%). The lower the quantity of the sensitive material, the higher the response. This study offers a method for preparing room-temperature ammonia sensors with a wide detection range and reveals the link between the structure and quantity of sensitive materials and gas-sensing performance.

Symphonia globulifera (Clusiaceae) has emerged as a model organism in tropical forest ecology and evolution due to its significant ecological role and complex biogeographical history. Originating from Africa, this species has independently colonized Caribbean, Central and South America three times, becoming a key component of tropical ecosystems across these regions. Despite the ecological importance of S.

The Sea of Japan is an intriguing area because of its connection to neighboring seas via shallow straits (< 140 m deep) and the occurrence of deep-water anoxic events during glacial periods. Despite repeated anoxic events, species with low dispersal capabilities have been reported at depths deeper than the straits in both the Sea of Japan and the Pacific Ocean.

Mast cell tumors (MCTs) are the most common skin neoplasms in dogs and exhibit highly variable biological behavior. Metastasis primarily affects the lymph nodes, though less frequently, MCTs can infiltrate the spleen, liver, peripheral blood, and bone marrow. Flow cytometry of fine needle aspirate samples represents a non-invasive diagnostic procedure that has shown promise for detecting and quantifying mast cells in primary tumors and lymph nodes.

Background: There is growing evidence that Sjögren's syndrome (SS) and atherosclerosis (AS) might share underlying immunological and inflammatory processes. Observational data have pointed toward a potential association between SS and a heightened likelihood of developing AS, though the causal direction and specific dynamics of this relationship have not been clearly verified. This Mendelian randomization (MR) investigation opts to investigate potential bidirectional causality between SS and three types of AS: coronary, cerebral, and peripheral.

Aims: Psychological resilience refers to an individual's capacity to adapt to adverse events. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in regulating post-transcriptional processes, while small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) act as transport vehicles. This study aimed to employ genome-wide profiling to identify and validate differences in the expression of resilience-associated sEV-miRNAs between low resilience (LR) and high resilience (HR) in young adults.
