Pesticide use in integrated pest and pollinator management framework to protect pollinator health

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1691-1696, April 2025.
Integrated pest management (IPM) emphasizes non‐chemical methods, with pesticides as a last resort, while integrated pest and pollinator management (IPPM) integrates pollinator health into pest control strategies. Abstract Agricultural pesticides have historically been a critical tool in controlling pests and diseases, preventing widespread suffering ...

Experimental study on diesel engine exhaust gas recirculation performance and optimum exhaust gas recirculation rate determination method [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2019
In order to study the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) performance of marine diesel engines, a venturi high-pressure EGR device was established to overcome the exhaust gas reflow problem based on a certain type of turbocharged diesel engine.

Negative Stiffness Induced and Controlled by Constriction

physica status solidi (b), EarlyView.
Structures with negative stiffness can be stabilized by constriction of external displacement. Furthermore, constriction can make a conventional positive stiffness material exhibit negative stiffness, either bidirectional or unidirectional (shown in the figure).

Estimating Mediterranean Cyclone Activity via Explainable Machine Learning

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Intense cyclones in the Mediterranean drive most of the region's rainfall and wind‐wave extremes, exerting a significant socio‐economic impact. Currently there are no established analytical tools for estimating Mediterranean cyclone activity from climatological fields.

All‐Season Analysis of Extratropical and Arctic Cyclones Over the Northern Hemisphere Oceans During 1940–2024

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Extratropical and Arctic cyclones regulate mid‐to‐high‐latitude climate through the transport of heat, moisture, and momentum; however, their long‐term behavior during spring and autumn seasons remains poorly understood. Using an 85‐year (1940–2024) cyclone climatology derived from ERA5 reanalysis, we identified substantial seasonal and basin ...

Attribution of Interdecadal Changes in the Spatial Structure of the Spring AO

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The Arctic Oscillation (AO) is one of the key atmospheric circulation modes in the mid‐to‐high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere. The spatial structure of the spring AO exhibits pronounced interdecadal variation, primarily characterized by a shift of the midlatitude circulation center from the North Pacific Center (NPC) to the North ...

Senescent Synovial Intimal Fibroblasts Aggravate Osteoarthritis by Regulating Macrophage Polarization and Chondrocyte Phenotype Through ANGPTL4‐α5β1 Axis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 13, 3 March 2026.
Senescent synovial intimal fibroblasts (SIF) are identified as key drivers of osteoarthritis. They promote M1 macrophage polarization and cartilage degeneration via the ANGPTL4–α5β1 axis, regulated by transcription factors EGR1 and ATF3. Pharmacological inhibition of this pathway alleviates disease, revealing SIF senescence as a promising therapeutic ...

Metformin Improves Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition Induced by TGF-β1 in Renal Tubular Epithelial NRK-52E Cells via Inhibiting Egr-1

Journal of Diabetes Research, 2018
The early growth response- (Egr-) 1 has been found to play a key role in organ fibrosis. Metformin has been shown to be effective in attenuating renal tubular epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which is involved in renal fibrosis. However, it is
