A genome-wide metabolic QTL analysis in Europeans implicates two loci shaped by recent positive selection. by George Nicholson, Mattias Rantalainen, Jia V Li, Anthony D Maher, Daniel Malmodin, Kourosh R Ahmadi, Johan H Faber, Amy Barrett, Josine L Min, N William Rayner, Henrik Toft, Maria Krestyaninova, Juris Viksna, Sudeshna Guha Neogi, Marc-Emmanuel Dumas, Ugis Sarkans, MolPAGE Consortium, Peter Donnelly, Thomas Illig, Jerzy Adamski, Karsten Suhre, Maxine Allen, Krina T Zondervan, Tim D Spector, Jeremy K Nicholson, John C Lindon, Dorrit Baunsgaard, Elaine Holmes, Mark I McCarthy, Chris C Holmes

“…Two of the three hit regions lie within haplotype blocks (at 2p13.1 and 10q24.2) that carry the genetic signature of strong, recent, positive selection in European populations. Genes NAT8 and PYROXD2, both with relatively uncharacterized functional roles, are good candidates for mediating the corresponding mQTL associations. …”

Metal and metal oxide nanomaterials for heavy metal remediation: novel approaches for selective, regenerative, and scalable water treatment by David B. Olawade, David B. Olawade, David B. Olawade, Ojima Z. Wada, Bamise I. Egbewole, Oluwaseun Fapohunda, Abimbola O. Ige, Sunday Oluwadamilola Usman, Olawale Ajisafe

“…The review identifies several promising nanomaterials, such as graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, and metal-organic frameworks, which exhibit high surface areas, tunable surface chemistries, and excellent adsorption capacities. Surface functionalization with specific functional groups (e.g., carboxyl, amino, thiol) significantly enhances the selectivity for target heavy metal ions. …”

Real time wire rope detection method based on Rockchip RK3588 by Mengpeng Qian, Yong Wang, Shaoqing Liu, Zhanghou Xu, Zhenshan Ji, Ming Chen, Hailong Wu, Zuchao Zhang

“…To enhance non-destructive wire rope inspection, a Mini-YOLO model was developed by integrating MobileNetV3, the Coordinate Attention (CA) mechanism, and a novel loss function, Inner-IoU, into the YOLOv8 framework. This paper’s innovation lies not in creating algorithmic components from scratch, but in their synergistic integration and targeted optimization to solve the specific challenges of real-time defect detection on resource-constrained edge devices. …”

An enhanced lightweight model for apple leaf disease detection in complex orchard environments by Ge Wang, Wenjie Sang, Fangqian Xu, Yuteng Gao, Yue Han, Qiang Liu

“…However, in complex natural environments, factors such as light variations, shading from branches and leaves, and overlapping disease spots often result in reduced accuracy in detecting apple diseases. To address the challenges of detecting small-target diseases on apple leaves in complex backgrounds and difficulty in mobile deployment, we propose an enhanced lightweight model, ELM-YOLOv8n.To mitigate the high consumption of computational resources in real-time deployment of existing models, we integrate the Fasternet Block into the C2f of the backbone network and neck network, effectively reducing the parameter count and the computational load of the model. …”
