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 Core Self-Evaluations are linked to career success, yet the person-environment factor mechanisms underlying this relationship remain unclear. This meta-analysis (N = 135,809) synthesized the evidence on whether person task performance and LMX environment mediate the effects of CSE on career success both objective (salary) and subjective (job satisfaction) indicators. This study employed meta-analytic structural equation modeling (MASEM) to test direct and indirect pathways. Results integrating tournament theory and LMX theory show that CSE positively relates to task performance and LMX, both of which in turn relate to salary and job satisfaction. A significant sequential mediation More >

Abstract This research investigates the behavior of sandwich glued laminated bamboo (Glubam) structures with a core formed by biodegradable plastic fibers, specifically polylactic acid (PLA), fabricated using 3D printing technology. The influence of various fiber printing orientations (0° and 45/135°) on tensile and compressive properties was investigated. The experimental results indicated that polylactic acid with calcium carbonate (PLA+) printed unidirectionally and aligned with the loading direction (0°) exhibits superior tensile and compressive strengths compared to specimens printed bidirectionally at 45/135°. Furthermore, the effect of additives on bioplastics of carbon fiber (PLA-CF) and glass fiber (PLA-GF) additives… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Background: Low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is a frequent and serious complication after pediatric cardiac surgery. Endothelial glycocalyx (EG) degradation, indicated by elevated syndecan-1, contributes to microvascular dysfunction and postoperative instability. The relationship between syndecan-1 dynamics and surgical risk categories remains unclear. Objective: To examine the association between perioperative syndecan-1 levels and clinical outcomes across Risk Adjustment for Congenital Heart Surgery (RACHS-1) categories. Methods: We analyzed 106 children (RACHS-1 categories 2–4) undergoing elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Syndecan-1 was measured at baseline (T0), 4 h (T4), and 72 h (T72). Outcomes included LCOS, vasoactive inotropic… More >

Abstract Background: E26 transformation-specific (ETS) family transcription factors have confirmed roles in several types of cancers. This study aimed to clarify the role of ETS family transcription factor alterations in gastric cancers. Methods: This study examines molecular alterations of ETS transcription factors in gastric adenocarcinomas based on an analysis of publicly available cohorts from the Protein Atlas and the Cancer Genome Atlas. The expression and relationships of members of the ETS transcription factor family with other important factors in the process of gastric carcinogenesis were evaluated using the same resources. Results: mRNA expression levels of ETS family… More >

Abstract Roaming in 5G networks enables seamless global mobility but also introduces significant security risks due to legacy protocol dependencies, uneven Security Edge Protection Proxy (SEPP) deployment, and the dynamic nature of inter-Public Land Mobile Network (inter-PLMN) signaling. Traditional rule-based defenses are inadequate for protecting cloud-native 5G core networks, particularly as roaming expands into enterprise and Internet of Things (IoT) domains. This work addresses these challenges by designing a scalable 5G Standalone testbed, generating the first intrusion detection dataset specifically tailored to roaming threats, and proposing a deep learning based intrusion detection framework for cloud-native environments.… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Background: Social anxiety is prevalent among adolescents and severely impacts their mental health and social functioning. This study aims to explore the underlying mechanisms and subgroup differences in adolescent social anxiety to provide a theoretical basis for targeted interventions. Methods: 3025 Chinese adolescents (Mean_age = 13.91 ± 1.60 years; 47% male) completed self-report measures of physical activity, core self-evaluation, and social anxiety. Variable-centered analyses employed PROCESS Model 4 with 5000 bootstrap samples; covariates were gender, grade, and place of residence. Person-centered analyses used latent profile analysis in Mplus 8.3 to identify subgroups based on social anxiety… More >

Abstract Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major cause of cancer-related deaths. The Nod-like receptor (NLR) family is involved in innate immunity and tumor progression, but its role in HCC remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value and biological function of NLR genes in HCC. Methods: Transcriptomic and clinical data from The Cancer Genome Atlas were analyzed using nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) to classify HCC into molecular subtypes. Differentially expressed genes were used to build an NLR-based prognostic model (NLR_score) through univariate Cox, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and multivariate Cox… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The YOLO (You Only Look Once) series, a leading single-stage object detection framework, has gained significant prominence in medical-image analysis due to its real-time efficiency and robust performance. Recent iterations of YOLO have further enhanced its accuracy and reliability in critical clinical tasks such as tumor detection, lesion segmentation, and microscopic image analysis, thereby accelerating the development of clinical decision support systems. This paper systematically reviews advances in YOLO-based medical object detection from 2018 to 2024. It compares YOLO’s performance with other models (e.g., Faster R-CNN, RetinaNet) in medical contexts, summarizes standard evaluation metrics (e.g.,… More >

Abstract Objectives: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is among the most frequently occurring malignant tumors of the digestive tract and is associated with an increased mortality rate worldwide. This study aimed to develop and validate a prognostic model based on immunogenic cell death (ICD)-related genes to predict patient survival and guide individualized treatment strategies for HCC. Methods: ICD-related genes were identified from the GeneCards database using a relevance score threshold of >10. A combination of least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and multivariate Cox analysis was used to screen prognostic genes and construct a risk score… More >
