Summary: We developed two prognostic nomograms for predicting recurrence and long-term survival in patients with ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) after primary treatment, and validated them in patients from the same center. This tool, which uses variables specifically related to OCCC, was more accurate than the FIGO system, making it relatively easy to use in clinic for patient counseling, postoperative management, and follow-up for individual patients.

Summary: This study investigated the association between malignant peritoneal cytology and survival outcomes in patients with stage I uterine serous or clear cell carcinoma who underwent primary staging surgery. The results showed that patients with malignant cytology had a higher likelihood of peritoneal recurrence and shorter time to relapse compared to those with negative cytology. Malignant cytology and serous histology were associated with worse progression-free survival and overall survival. This detrimental effect was more prominent in older patients, those with serous histology, stage IB disease, and those who received hysteroscopy as a diagnostic test.

Summary: This study found that hepcidin expression is upregulated in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and is correlated with patient age, T stage, and pathologic stage. Hepcidin promoter methylation is significantly associated with poor clinical parameters and hepcidin may serve as an independent prognostic factor. Mechanistically, hepcidin is involved in immune-related and metabolism-related pathways.

Summary: Our study revealed that LRRK2 plays a crucial role in the tumorigenesis and progression of ccRCC, and may serve as a potential predictor and therapeutic target for this type of cancer. The up-regulation of LRRK2 in ccRCC was found to be correlated with DNA methylation and associated with a better prognosis in patients with ccRCC.

Summary: This study evaluated the prognostic factors of disease relapse and overall survival in patients with clear cell carcinoma (CCC) of the endometrium. It found that known predictors of survival rates in endometrioid carcinoma patients had moderate effect on CCC patients, except for the disease stage. Further research is needed to assess whether molecular profiling can help predict survival outcomes.

Summary: Our study found a correlation between OIP5 expression and immune cell infiltration level in ccRCC. Analysis based on RNA-seq data showed that OIP5 has an impact on immune activity. Additionally, OIP5 was associated with several immunomodulators and involved in multiple immune signaling pathways. We constructed a multiple-gene risk prediction signature, providing a potential target for immunotherapy in ccRCC.

Summary: In this study, the researchers found that Arabidopsis MAPK3 and MPK6 play important roles in plant immunity and growth/development. YDA, along with MAPKKK3 and MAPKKK5, serves as an upstream regulator of the MAPK cascade, regulating plant growth and development. The study also demonstrated the involvement of YDA in plant immune signaling, and the contribution of MAPKKK3 and MAPKKK5 to gamete function and embryogenesis.

Summary: This paper studies a practical scheme to reduce mutual coupling interference (MCI) between two extremely adjacent multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna elements. By using special two-dimensional metamaterial units, the surface wave interference is successfully suppressed. The proposed scheme is validated through experimental and simulation results, which show that the MCI of the antenna array is effectively reduced and exhibits good performance at the interested frequencies.

Summary: Given the intrinsic and potential resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to antibiotics, it is crucial to develop new therapeutic options for infections caused by this bacterium. Bacterial metabolic pathways are being explored as potential targets for new antibiotics. This study investigates the metabolic mechanisms of glycerol and its intermediate glycerol 3-phosphate (G3P) in P. aeruginosa PAO1. The results reveal the importance of G3P homeostasis for the growth and virulence factor production of P. aeruginosa PAO1. The enzyme GlpD, involved in G3P catabolism, is identified as a potential therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of P. aeruginosa infections.

Summary: This paper presents a novel nonlinear frequency domain equalization algorithm for SC-FDE systems. The algorithm improves the classical iterative block decision feedback equalization (IBDFE) algorithm by replacing ZF equalization with MMSE equalization and eliminating the iteration of the correlation factor. Delta estimation is also applied to improve equalization accuracy. Simulation results show that the performance of the novel algorithm is better or the complexity is lower than the IBDFE algorithm with similar complexity or performance.

Summary: Newton's rings are interference patterns consisting of concentric rings, commonly observed in classic optics experiments. In this study, we demonstrate the generation of generalized Newton's rings using vortex beams. Unlike conventional Newton's rings, the generalized ones exhibit spiral arms instead of concentric rings, accompanied by fork-shaped dislocations. Notably, the number of spiral arms and dislocations corresponds to the topological charge of the incident vortex beams. Experimental results confirm our theoretical predictions. This novel interference pattern can be utilized for measuring the topological charge of vortex beams.
