Abstract With the rapid development of smart manufacturing, intelligent safety monitoring in industrial workshops has become increasingly important. To address the challenges of complex backgrounds, target scale variation, and excessive model parameters in worker violation detection, this study proposes ADCP-YOLO, an enhanced lightweight model based on YOLOv8. Here, “ADCP” represents four key improvements: Alterable Kernel Convolution (AKConv), Dilated-Wise Residual (DWR) module, Channel Reconstruction Global Attention Mechanism (CRGAM), and Powerful-IoU loss. These components collaboratively enhance feature extraction, multi-scale perception, and localization accuracy while effectively reducing model complexity and computational cost. Experimental results show that ADCP-YOLO achieves a More >

Abstract To address the issue that hybrid flow shop production struggles to handle order disturbance events, a dynamic scheduling model was constructed. The model takes minimizing the maximum makespan, delivery time deviation, and scheme deviation degree as the optimization objectives. An adaptive dynamic scheduling strategy based on the degree of order disturbance is proposed. An improved multi-objective Grey Wolf (IMOGWO) optimization algorithm is designed by combining the “job-machine” two-layer encoding strategy, the timing-driven two-stage decoding strategy, the opposition-based learning initialization population strategy, the POX crossover strategy, the dual-operation dynamic mutation strategy, and the variable neighborhood search… More >

Abstract Background: Interpersonal alienation has increasingly been recognized as a salient risk factor affecting university students’ psychological adjustment and life satisfaction. Guided by Social Identity and Self-Categorization theories, this study examines how alienation influences life satisfaction through the mediating roles of social identity and hope. Methods: This study surveyed 492 Taiwanese undergraduate students (53.7 percent female, mean age 21.08 years) from 60 universities using convenience sampling in May 2023. Data were collected through an online questionnaire distributed via faculty-managed teaching media platforms. Measures included perceived social identity, state hope, interpersonal alienation, and life satisfaction. All instruments were… More >

Abstract The electrical and structural characteristics of Bi_xSe_100-x glasses (where x=5, 10, 15, and 25 at. %) were systematically investigated. Using the traditional Quenching of melts process, the amorphous Bi_xSe_100-x materials were created. Thin films of Bi_xSe_100-x have formed onto ultrasonically glass substrates that have been cleaned using thermal evaporation in a vacuum of approximately 10^-5 Torr. Here we show and discuss the results of four bulk glasses of Bi_xSe_100-x (where x=5, 10, 15, and 25 at. %) that were subjected to differential thermal analysis (DTA) under non-isothermal conditions. For the compositions under consideration, five separate methods were used More >

Abstract Four Se₇₀Ge₂₀Sb₁₀ alloy samples were prepared using the melt quenching technique. To improve the energy states of the mobility gap, the samples were exposed to gamma radiation from 60Co source at various doses of 600, 1200, 1500, and 2000 Gy. The electrical characteristics were examined both before and after irradiation. The conductivity analysis revealed that all of our samples were impacted by gamma radiation. The reorganization of the amorphous lattice and the degree of radiation-induced disorder have been involved in the changes that occurred in the electrical characteristics of the irradiated samples. All irradiated and non-irradiated… More >

Abstract Elevated homocysteine is a clinically relevant metabolic signal in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Higher circulating levels track with oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, mitochondrial impairment, and pulmonary vascular remodeling, rise with disease severity, and may contribute to the excess cardiovascular risk—although effect sizes and causality remain uncertain. This review centers on the homocysteine–carnitine relationship in COPD pathophysiology. Carnitine deficiency, prevalent in COPD, can worsen mitochondrial bioenergetics, promote accumulation of acyl intermediates, and reduce nitric oxide bioavailability via endothelial nitric oxide synthase uncoupling (eNOS). Conversely, restoring carnitine status in experimental and early clinical settings has been… More >

Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI), particularly deep learning algorithms utilizing convolutional neural networks, plays an increasingly pivotal role in enhancing medical image examination. It demonstrates the potential for improving diagnostic accuracy within dental care. Orthopantomograms (OPGs) are essential in dentistry; however, their manual interpretation is often inconsistent and tedious. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive application of YOLOv5m for the simultaneous detection and classification of six distinct dental pathologies using panoramic OPG images. The model was trained and refined on a custom dataset that began with 232 panoramic radiographs and was later… More >

Abstract Hematological cancer stem cells (HCSCs) is a subpopulation of cells within hematological cancers that, through their characteristics, enhance malignancy and render their therapy more challenging. By uncovering the underlying mechanisms behind characteristic properties such as self-renewal, immune evasion, and conventional therapy resistance, as well as the major differences between other cancers and physiological cells, new and alternative targets can be assessed for use in existing and novel immunotherapeutic interventions. Through the evaluation of the existing literature, one can realize that there have already been several studies addressing the use of stem cell transplantation (SCT), monoclonal More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a serious complication of diabetes mellitus and are associated with high morbidity, risk of amputation, and increased mortality. Although DFUs typically remain a chronic, non-healing wound, a small portion of DFUs may undergo malignant transformation. The subsequent malignancies are skin cancers such as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), basal cell carcinoma, or melanoma. Understanding the pathophysiology of DFUs and the molecular and clinical determinants that contribute to their potential malignant transformation if crucial for clinical management. Chronic inflammation, dysregulation of cytokine signaling, faulty immune surveillance, and impaired wound healing all play… More >

Abstract Objectives: The phytochemical investigation of traditional herbal medicines holds significant promise for modern drug discovery, particularly in cancer therapy. This study aimed to evaluate the cytotoxicity, apoptosis induction, and immune-modulatory activities of extracts from three herbal medicines with historical use in traditional medicine—Acanthopanax sessiliflorus, Phragmites communis, and Pinus densiflora, as well as their combined extract (GMAS 01/COM), on human lung cancer cells (A549) and normal cell lines, including murine macrophages (RAW 264.7) and human keratinocytes (HaCaT). Methods: Plant extracts were prepared using aqueous extraction, sonication, and rotary evaporation. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents were quantified using the… More >
