    Abstract Weird numbers are abundant numbers that are not pseudoperfect. Since their introduction, the existence of odd weird numbers has been an open problem. In this work, we describe our computational effort to search for odd weird numbers, which shows their non-existence up to $10^{21}$. We also searched up to $10^{28}$ for numbers with an abundance below $10^{14}$, to no avail. Our approach to speed up the search can be viewed as an application of reverse search in the domain of combinatorial optimization, and may be useful for other similar quest for natural numbers with special properties that depend crucially on their factorization.

    Abstract Conjugated polymers (CPs) are solution-processible for various electronic applications, where solution aggregation and dynamics could impact the morphology in the solid state. Various solvents and solvent mixtures have been used to dissolve and process CPs, but few studies have quantified the effect of solvent quality on the solution behavior of CPs. Herein, we performed static light scattering and small-angle X-ray scattering combined with molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to investigate CP solution behaviors with solvents of varying quality, including poly(3-alkylthiophene) (P3ATs) with various sidechain lengths from -C

    Abstract Rubella is a major cause of congenital defects, and the presence of rubella infection in a pregnant woman may lead to fetal death or congenital defects known as congenital rubella syndrome(CRS). Since China has not yet established a national CRS surveillance system, the true incidence cannot be determined. To understand the disease burden and epidemiological characteristics of CRS cases in China, the article reports the first case of CRS in Quzhou, China, and conducts a retrospective analysis of related cases that have been reported in China over the past decade. Because the availability of rubella-containing vaccines (RCV) was not widespread in China before 2008, women of childbearing age born before 2008 are generally unvaccinated against RCV. Due to the lack of routine CRS monitoring and screening, CRS is underreported in China. Vaccination of nonimmune women of childbearing age with RCV and establishing a sensitive and timely case-based CRS surveillance system can accelerate the elimination of rubella and CRS.

    Abstract Currently, purification step in the recombinant protein manufacture is still a great challenge and its cost far outweighs those of the upstream process. In this study, a functionalized cellulose-based monolith was constructed as an efficient affinity adsorbent for one-step purification of recombinant proteins. Firstly, the fundamental cellulose monolith (CE monolith) was fabricated based on thermally induced phase separation, followed by being modified with nitrilotriacetic acid anhydride through esterification to give NCE monolith. After chelating with Ni

    Abstract Introduction Gastric cancer (GC) remains a global health challenge, and H. pylori infection is a main risk factor for non-cardia GC. The present study aimed to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in Mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1 (MST1) and MST2, Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, and the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer (GC). Methods A case-control study was conducted using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Taqman method to detect the titer of anti-H. pylori antibody in normal human serum and genotype 9 SNPs of MST1 and MST2 genes among 808 samples. Unconditional logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between SNPs and H. pylori infection, as well as the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer in codominant, dominant, overdominant, recessive, and log-additive genetic models. Haplotypes were constructed using the Haploview 4.2 software. Results The CC genotype of MST2 SNP rs10955176 was associated with a reduced risk of H. pylori infection compared to the TT+CT genotype. None of other SNPs were associated with H. pylori infection. The TT genotype of MST2 SNP rs7827435 was associated with a reduced risk of non-cardia gastric cancer compared to the AA+AT genotype. None of the SNPs were associated with non-cardia gastric cancer. There were no associations between haplotypes and H. pylori infection or the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer. Conclusions The CC genotype of rs10955176 and the TT genotype of rs7827435 may serve as protective factors against H. pylori infection and non-cardia gastric cancer risk, respectively.

    Abstract Probiotic intervention is a well-established approach for replacing antibiotics in the management of weaning piglet diarrhea, which involves a large number of complex systems interacting with the gut microbiota, including the endocannabinoid system; nevertheless, the specific role of the endocannabinoid system mediated by probiotics in the piglet intestine has rarely been studied. In this study, we used antibiotics (ampicillin) to perturb the intestinal microbiota of piglets. This resulted in that the gene expression of the intestinal endocannabinoid system was reprogrammed and the abundance of probiotic
