Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.This study retrospectively analyzed two types of respiratory phase CT and PET/CT images of 20 lung cancer patients. After DIR and functional grading, three lung function images were developed, and their correlations and differences were evaluated. Abstract Background Pulmonary ventilation–perfusion function plays a crucial role in both radiotherapy ...

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Anaerobic ammonium‐oxidizing (anammox) bacteria employ a unique, hydrazine‐based pathway to obtain energy from nitrite and ammonium. These organisms possess distinct Rieske/cytochrome b complexes whose precise role in anammox metabolism remains unclear, but which have been proposed to include the generation of NAD(P)H.

Covariance of the intertropical discontinuity and African easterly jet in Sahelian wet and dry years
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Intertropical discontinuity and African easterly jet (AEJ) positions are strongly correlated, with a more pronounced linear relationship across wet years. Surface heat flux anomalies modify low‐level temperature and sensible heat flux gradients that shift the AEJ core south of the gradient maxima in both composites.

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Internal oxidation has been identified as an effective method for enhancing the strength of AgMg alloys. However, the concurrent occurrence of embrittlement remains inadequately understood, thus limiting their broader application. This study investigates the oxidation behavior of AgMg alloys with Mg concentrations ranging from 1 at% to 7 at ...

On the Damage Tolerance of Diffusion Bonded Titanium–Aluminum Phase Biomimetic Composites
Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The biomimetic design principles of natural structures involve the strategic integration of stiff and compliant phases to synergistically enhance strength and toughness. Its evolutionary refined natural armor, characterized by a specialized microarchitecture, enables superior damage tolerance.
