Distinct contributions and sensorimotor encoding of PV and FoxP2 neurons in the external globus pallidus during perceptual decision-making Open
SUMMARY The external globus pallidus (GPe), a central nucleus of the basal ganglia (BG), comprises diverse cell types, including PV and FoxP2 neurons. While previous studies have delineated their distinct roles in movement regulation and s…

Effect of intraoperative oesophageal pressure-guided PEEP on postoperative pulmonary complications in elderly patients undergoing major laparoscopic surgery: study protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled clinical trial in China Open
Introduction Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) induced by mechanical ventilation in general anaesthesia are related to poor clinical outcomes. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is a key component of the lung protective ven…

Regulation of PDGFRα+ cells and ICC in progesterone-mediated slow colon transit in pregnant mice Open
Under the regulation of progesterone, the relaxation function of PDGFRα+ cells is enhanced and the contraction function of ICC is weakened, leading to the slow colon transit of pregnant mice.

Insulin-like growth factor-1 regulates follicle selection of hens by promoting proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis of granulosa cells in prehierarchical follicles in vitro Open
During the reproduction stage of poultry, a single follicle is selected from a cohort of 6-8 mm small yellow follicles to initiate rapid growth and final ovulation almost daily. In the process, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) plays a pi…

Integrated Multi-Omics Analysis Reveals the Effect of Maternal Gestational Diabetes on Fetal Mouse Hippocampi Open
Growing evidence suggests that adverse intrauterine environments could affect the long-term health of offspring. Recent evidence indicates that gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with neurocognitive changes in offspring. How…

Efficient Classification of Darknet Access Activity with Partial Traffic Open
In this paper we propose a novel approach to classify darknet-access traffic with only partial traffic data, which significantly reduces resource consumption and is as accuracy as prior work. Besides, in order to keep up with the users’ re…

Elevated plasma pentraxin-3 in polycystic ovary syndrome is associated with hyperandrogenism: a case-control study Open
Background Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) - a crucial humoral innate immunity component – is related to obesity and cardiovascular complications in women who suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, the circulating PTX3 level in PCOS is …
