A Canine Musculoskeletal Robot for Investigating Biomechanical Functions During Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this study, a dog limb musculoskeletal robot was developed using thin McKibben artificial muscles to investigate the effects of the dog's musculoskeletal structure on walking. Walking experiments were conducted in both indoor and outdoor environments, suggesting that the flexible structure of the dog's shoulders contributes to an increase in stroke ...

Geomechanical model test for analysis of surrounding rock behaviours in composite strata

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2021
Due to the large differences in physico-mechanical properties of composite strata, jamming, head sinking and other serious consequences occur frequently during tunnel boring machine (TBM) excavation.

The first Neanderthal remains from an open-air Middle Palaeolithic site in the Levant [PDF]

, 2017
The late Middle Palaeolithic (MP) settlement patterns in the Levant included the repeated use of caves and open landscape sites. The fossil record shows that two types of hominins occupied the region during this period - Neandertals and Homo sapiens ...

BioCNTs Mediated Delivery of Systemically Mobile Small RNAs via Leaf Spray to Control Both Tomato DNA and RNA Viruses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A carbon nanotube‐based biopesticide system (BioCNTs) enables efficient delivery and systemic movement of RNAi molecules to control major tomato viruses. By integrating shRNA and tRNA‐like structures (TLS) with BioCNTs, this green and scalable approach achieves long‐term silencing and high antiviral efficacy through simple foliar spraying.

Machinery Transportation Management: Case Study of 'Plant-trailer' H&S Incidents [PDF]

, 2014
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate causal agents of health and safety (H&S)incidents among “plant-trailers” (as used by construction and utility contractors to transport mechanical machinery); including the relationship(s) of such ...

NFS1 Regulates IDH2 to Attenuate Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms via Interacting With SP2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The loss of NFS1 leads to its reduced binding with the transcription factor SP2, resulting in decreased expression of the downstream gene Idh2. This causes a shift in energy supply toward glycolysis in VSMCs, ultimately contributing to the occurrence and progression of AAA.

Novel Foraging Mechanisms in Atypical Excavate Flagellates

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology
ABSTRACTMost excavates, a paraphyletic assemblage of flagellates, typically present an active vaned flagellum that drives a feeding current through a ventral groove for predation. However, some have “atypical” morphologies. Here, we describe the foraging mechanisms in heteroloboseid flagellates (Discoba) that have a groove but lack the seemingly ...

Foundation Model‐Enabled Multimodal Deep Learning for Prognostic Prediction in Colorectal Cancer with Incomplete Modalities: A Multi‐Institutional Retrospective Study

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
FLARE, a multimodal AI framework, combines pathology slides, radiology scans, and clinical reports to predict colorectal cancer outcomes, even when some tests are missing. Evaluated retrospectively in 1679 patients from four medical centers, it consistently achieved the best prognostic accuracy and clearly separated high‐ and low‐risk groups.

Versatile CRISPR‐Cas Tools for Gene Regulation in Zebrafish via an Enhanced Q Binary System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces CRISPR‐Q, a transgenic CRISPR‐Cas system leveraging the QFvpr/QUAS binary expression platform in zebrafish. CRISPR‐Q overcomes previous challenges in achieving stable and efficient gene regulation. By enabling precise spatiotemporal control of transcript knockdown (CRISPR‐QKD) and gene activation (CRISPR‐Qa), it provides a ...
