AND‐Logic‐Gated Aptamer Switch for Precise Targeting and Regulation of RNA G‐Quadruplexes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An AND‐logic‐gated aptamer switch enables tumor‐selective activation of RNA G‐quadruplex (rG4)‐targeting function. By combining cell‐surface recognition and intracellular redox sensing, the system achieves precise regulation of disease‐relevant RNA structures exclusively in tumor cells, with minimal off‐target effects in normal cells, offering a ...

How does the Kids SIPsmartER program impact the sugar‐sweetened beverage intake of students: An investigation beyond total treatment effect in randomized controlled trial

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study develops and empirically estimates a structural framework to decompose the causal pathways of multilevel behavioral interventions targeting adolescent health behaviors. We apply this framework to the Kids SIPsmartER (KSS) program, a 6‐month, school‐based intervention evaluated through a clustered randomized controlled trial in rural

Abstract If sexual assault survivors report the assault to the criminal legal system, they often need informal support from family and friends throughout the long and frequently retraumatizing process of investigation and prosecution. This study is part of a long‐term community‐based participatory action research project in a predominately Black ...

Method for Generating Indoor 3D Scene Graphs Based on Instance Features and Relationship Encoding [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
A 3D scene graph is a compact and explicit representation in scene analysis. In today’s 3D scene graph prediction methods, the feature encoding method of nodes and edges is relatively simple, which essentially hinders the network from fully ...

Using photovoice to understand community perceptions of firearm risks and protective factors among Asian Americans

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study used photovoice methodology to explore Asian Americans' perspectives on the root causes and protective factors of firearm violence in their communities. Photovoice provided a participatory platform for community members to document lived experiences and identify priorities for change.

B/ordering and healthcare access for migrants with precarious status: The role of healthcare workers in counteracting restrictive policies

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In Canada, precarious migration is largely invisibilized. Nonetheless, b/ordering greatly affects people's realities by limiting access to social rights. In Quebec, migrants with precarious status (MPS) do not have access to healthcare, although Quebec has a “universal” healthcare coverage.
