Article Abstract

Single-cell multi-modal data integration has been an area of active research in recent years. However, it is difficult to unify the integration process of different omics in a pipeline and evaluate the contributions of data integration. In this article, we revisit the definition and contributions of multi-modal data integration and propose a strong and scalable method based on probabilistic deep learning with an explainable framework powered by statistical modeling to extract meaningful information after data integration. Our proposed method is capable of integrating different types of omics and sensing data. It offers an approach to discovering important relationships among biological features or cell states. We demonstrate that our method outperforms other baseline models in preserving both local and global structures and perform a comprehensive analysis for mining structural relationships in complex biological systems, including inference of gene regulatory networks, extraction of significant biological linkages, and analysis of differentially regulatory relationships.

Background: Crop pests cause substantial crop yield and economic losses, food insecurity, and negative impacts on human health and environment globally. Timely provision of pest risk alerts - that is, the optimum time to intervene against key pests before invasion or establishment - to smallholder farmers on pest management could improve farm performance. However, there is little quantitative evidence testing this hypothesis.

In this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of religious attachment in nursing students on their spiritual care competence levels. This cross-sectional study was conducted with Turkish nursing students in 2022 (n = 348). The sociodemographic information form, spiritual health scale-short form (SHS-SF), and spiritual care competence scale (SCCS-T) were used for data collection.

Epigenetic processes, such as DNA methylation, show potential as biological markers and mechanisms underlying gene-environment interplay in the prediction of mental health and other brain-based phenotypes. However, little is known about how peripheral epigenetic patterns relate to individual differences in the brain itself. An increasingly popular approach to address this is by combining epigenetic and neuroimaging data; yet, research in this area is almost entirely comprised of cross-sectional studies in adults.

Concrete production significantly contributes to CO emissions and depletion of natural resources, leading to substantial environmental concerns. The integration of polymers into concrete has emerged as a promising innovative solution aimed at overcoming inherent limitations of traditional concrete, including brittleness, susceptibility to tracking, environmental degradation, and substantial ecological impacts. This systematic review thoroughly investigates the properties, sustainability implications, and practical challenges associated with polymer-based concrete (PBC), particularly focusing on polymer concrete composites (PCC) and polymer-modified concrete (PMC) detailing their composition, mechanical behavior, and durability.

Background And Objective: Sacituzumab govitecan, an anti-trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) antibody-drug conjugate, has been approved by both the US Food and Drug Administration and European Medicines Agency for patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who have received two or more prior systemic therapies, including at least one of them for advanced disease. Although TROP2 evaluation is not required for patient selection, survival data from the ASCENT trial show improved response rates in patients with high TROP2 expression by immunohistochemistry. However, there is no standardized testing assay for these patients.
