Abstract Background: Childhood leukemia, a malignant proliferative disorder of the hematopoietic system and the most common childhood cancer, poses a significant threat to the lives and health of affected children. For parents, a leukemia diagnosis in their child is a profoundly traumatic event. As primary caregivers, they endure immense psychological distress and caregiving stress throughout the prolonged and demanding treatment process, which can adversely affect their own well-being and caregiving capacity. However, the psychological mechanisms, such as the role of mindfulness, linking caregiver stress to parental coping strategies remain underexplored, and evidence-based interventions to support these parents… More >

Abstract In data communication, limited communication resources often lead to measurement bias, which adversely affects subsequent system estimation if not effectively handled. This paper proposes a novel bias calibration algorithm under communication constraints to achieve accurate system states of the interested system. An output-based event-triggered scheme is first employed to alleviate transmission burden. Accounting for the limited-communication-induced measurement bias, a novel bias calibration algorithm following the Kalman filtering line is developed to restrain the effect of the measurement bias on system estimation, thereby achieving accurate system state estimates. Subsequently, the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) implementation More >

Abstract We report the rational design and synthesis of a novel trifunctional catalyst comprising atomically dispersed copper single-atom (Cu-SAC) sites and Cu₉S₅ nanoparticles co-loaded onto a highly crystalline carbon nitride (CCN) support for the photothermal conversion of methane to ethanol. The distinct active sites operate in synergy: the Cu-SAC sites, coordinated to the nitrogen-rich CCN framework, serve as highly efficient centers for the initial activation of methane’s C-H bond to form methyl radicals, while the plasmonic Cu₉S₅ nanoparticles act as dedicated sites for the subsequent C-C coupling and partial oxidation steps, driven by a combination of photochemical More >

Abstract Objective: Leucine-rich alpha-2 glycoprotein 1 (Lrg1) could regulate diverse cells in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion. Our study seeks to uncover Lrg1’s impact on endothelial cell heterogeneity via differentiation pathways and transcription factors. Method: The CSOmap model measured cell-to-brain-center distances using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data in middle cerebral artery occlusion reperfusion (MCAO/R). Monocle2 mapped endothelial differentiation paths. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) analyzed endothelial subcluster variations. Database searches revealed a zinc finger MIZ-type containing 1 protein-frizzled 3 (Zmiz1-Fzd3) promoter interaction. Endothelial cells were transfected with a Fzd3 promoter-luciferase plasmid. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and western blotting assessed… More >

Abstract Electrical and electronic devices face significant challenges in heat management due to their compact size and high heat flux, which negatively impact performance and reliability. Conventional cooling methods, such as forced air cooling, often struggle to transfer heat efficiently. In contrast, thermoelectric coolers (TECs) provide an innovative active cooling solution to meet growing thermal management demands. In this research, a refrigerant based on mono ethylene glycol and distilled water was used instead of using gases, in addition to using thermoelectric cooling units instead of using a compressor in traditional refrigeration systems. This study evaluates the… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The development of underground gas storage (UGS) systems is vital for maintaining stability between energy supply and demand. This study explores the dynamic response mechanisms of carbonate reservoirs subjected to intense injection–production cycling during UGS operations. By integrating three-dimensional digital core technology with a coupled poro-mechanical model, we simulate the pore-scale behavior of a representative Huangcaoxia UGS carbonate core. The results demonstrate that fluid–solid coupling effects markedly amplify permeability reduction, far exceeding the influence of porosity variations alone. More significantly, gas production leads to a pronounced decline in permeability driven by rising effective stress, arising More >

Abstract Background: With growing concerns about the abuse of prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) medications, such as medications for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), diet pills, and sleep aids, among adolescents in South Korea, this study aimed to investigated how these substances affect key aspects of adolescent well-being, specifically school satisfaction, body image, and sleep quality, and their association with mental health outcomes. Methods: A two-wave longitudinal survey was conducted with Korean female high school students (Wave 1: n = 494; Wave 2: n = 189). Linear regression analyses were used to evaluate the effects of ADHD medications, diet pills, and… More >

Abstract Background: Platform algorithms driving content presentation are profoundly shaping the experience of younger users. While prior research has examined anxiety stemming from young adults’ social media usage, the link between upward social comparison and anxiety remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the mediating role of upward social comparison in this relationship and determine the moderating role of psychological resilience. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 562 young Chinese adults aged 18–35 (53% female). Data were collected via an online questionnaire employing validated measurement instruments, including scales for social media usage patterns, upward comparator behaviour… More >

Abstract Background: Chinese elementary students face mental health challenges due to excessive academic pressures. Previous research has indicated that resilience is crucial for improving their mental health, which is fostered by a supportive family environment. This study, therefore, explored the impact of family organization on children’s resilience and examined whether proactive coping and mindfulness mediate this relationship. Methods: Data were collected from 702 elementary school students (grades 3–6) in 3 cities in China using a multi-stage sampling procedure. Validated scales measured family organization, proactive coping, mindfulness, and resilience. The hypothesized model was tested using Structural Equation Modeling… More >

Abstract In this paper we describe a surgical technique for achieving safe ureteral stent placement in cases of severe obstruction. Although retrograde endoscopic stenting is often the preferred method for ureteral drainage, the existing literature offers limited insight into innovative surgical methods made possible by recent technological advancements. In this report, we present a method that employs a ureteral dilator as an anchor to facilitate precise and effective stent insertion. The technique involves positioning a ureteral dilator in close contact with the tip of the obstructing stone. In this position, the dilator not only functions to More >
