Investigating the effects of diurnal and nocturnal pollinators on male and female reproductive success and on floral trait selection in Silene dioica by Barbot, Estelle, Dufaÿ, Mathilde, Godé, Cécile, De Cauwer, Isabelle

“…In this study, we investigated how selection gradients on floral traits in Silene dioica were affected by (i) the pollinator community the plants were exposed to (diurnal versus nocturnal pollination) and (ii) the level of emission of a volatile organic compound typically linked to pollinator attraction (natural versus enhanced phenylacetylaldehyd (PAA) emission) in a fully crossed design. …”

Deep learning for predicting prognostic consensus molecular subtypes in cervical cancer from histology images by Ruoyu Wang, Gozde N. Gunesli, Vilde Eide Skingen, Kari-Anne Frikstad Valen, Heidi Lyng, Lawrence S. Young, Nasir Rajpoot

“…In addition, our extensive tumour microenvironment analysis reveals differences between the two CMS subtypes, with CMS-C1 tumours exhibit increased lymphocyte presence, while CMS-C2 tumours show high nuclear pleomorphism, elevated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and higher malignancy, correlating with poor prognosis. This study introduces a potentially clinically advantageous Digital-CMS score derived from digitised WSIs of routine H&E-stained tissue sections, offers new insights into TME differences impacting patient prognosis and potential therapeutic targets, and identifies histological patterns serving as potential surrogate markers of the CMS subtypes for clinical application.…”

Modulation of Sustained Attention by Theta-tACS over the Lateral and Medial Frontal Cortices by Jinwen Wei, Zhiguo Zhang, Ziqing Yao, Dong Ming, Peng Zhou

“…Results showed that phase-based connectivity between pMFC and LPFC significantly decreased in the tACS group compared with the sham group during the first five minutes of the poststimulation period. Moreover, a marginal trend existed that sustained attention was downregulated by tACS in the same time interval, suggesting that theta phase synchronization between pMFC and LPFC may play a causal role in sustained attention.…”
