    Abstract VR headsets have limited rendering capability, which limits the size and detail of the virtual environment (VE) that can be used in VR applications. One solution is cloud VR, where the "thin" VR clients are assisted by a server. This paper describes Cio VR, a cloud VR system that provides fast loading times, as needed to let users see and interact with the VE quickly at session startup or after teleportation. The server reduces the original VE to a compact representation through near-far partitioning. The server renders the far region to an environment map which it sends to the client together with the near region geometry, from which the client renders quality frames locally, with low latency. The near region starts out small and grows progressively, with strict visual continuity, minimizing startup time. The low-latency and fast-startup advantages of CloVR have been validated in a user study where groups of 8 participants wearing all-in-one VR headsets (Quest 2's) were supported by a laptop server to run a collaborative VR application with a 25 million triangle VE.

    Abstract Infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori or Hp) is associated with an increased susceptibility to gastric diseases, notably gastric cancer (GC). This study investigates the impact of Hp infection on chemoresistance and immune activity in GC cells. Hp infection in AGS and MKN-74 cells promoted proliferation, migration and invasion, apoptosis resistance, and tumorigenic activity of cells under cisplatin (DDP) plus gemcitabine (GEM) treatment. Additionally, it dampened activity of the co-cultured CD8

    Abstract The imaging quality of the Mapping Imaging Spectrometer (IMS) is crucial for spectral identification and detection performance. In IMS, the image mapper significantly influences the imaging quality. Traditional image mappers utilize a single-point diamond machining process. This process leads to inevitable edge eating phenomena that further results in noticeable deficiencies in imaging, impacting spectral detection performance. Therefore, we propose a manufacturing process for the image mapper based on ultra-thin layered glass. This process involves precision polishing of ultra-thin glass with two-dimensional angles, systematically assembling it into an image mapper. The surface roughness after coating is generally superior to 10 nm, with a maximum angle deviation of less than 3'. This results in high mapping quality. Subsequently, a principle verification experimental system was established to conduct imaging tests on real targets. The reconstructed spectrum demonstrates excellent alignment with the results obtained from the Computed Tomography Imaging Spectrometer (CTIS). We thereby validate that this approach effectively resolves the issues associated with edge eating (caused by traditional single-point diamond machining), and leads to improved imaging quality. Also when compared to other techniques (like two-photon polymerization (2PP)), this process demonstrates notable advantages such as simplicity, efficiency, low processing costs, high fault tolerance, and stability, showcasing its potential for practical applications.

    Abstract This paper proposes a general handheld stick haptic redirection method that allows the user to experience complex shapes with haptic feedback through both tapping and extended contact, such as in contour tracing. As the user extends the stick to make contact with a virtual object, the contact point with the virtual object and the targeted contact point with the physical object are continually updated, and the virtual stick is redirected to synchronize the virtual and real contacts. Redirection is applied either just to the virtual stick, or to both the virtual stick and hand. A user study (N = 26) confirms the effectiveness of the proposed redirection method. A first experiment following a two-interval forced-choice design reveals that the offset detection thresholds are [-15cm, +15cm]. A second experiment asks participants to guess the shape of an invisible virtual object by tapping it and by tracing its contour with the handheld stick, using a real world disk as a source of passive haptic feedback. The experiment reveals that using our haptic redirection method participants can identify the invisible object with 78% accuracy.

    Abstract Oocyte vitrification has become a widely adopted method in clinical practice. However, the solidification behavior and its impact on oocytes during the ultrarapid cooling process remain poorly understood. In this study, we established a system and methodology to observe crystallization behavior in oocytes during quench cooling and warming. Subsequently, the threshold concentration of cryoprotective agents (CPAs) required for oocyte vitrification was determined through a visualization method. The results demonstrated that the ice front could not be observed in the image sequence when using 16.5% DMSO +16.5% EG during high-speed quench cooling (2821.58°C/min). Finally, oocytes were encapsulated with an antifreezing hydrogel (7.5% EG +7.5% DMSO +0.5% alginate) and subjected to high-speed quench cooling. No ice crystals appeared in the antifreezing hydrogel-encapsulated oocytes at a low concentration of osmotic CPA (2.4 M). This research opens up new possibilities for oocyte vitrification with a reduced concentration of CPA.

    Abstract Land use and land cover (LULC) will cause large flows of carbon sources and sinks. As the world's largest carbon emitter with a complicated LULC, China's carbon emissions have profound implications for its ecological environment and future development. In this paper, we account for the land-use changes and carbon emissions of 30 Chinese provinces and cities in China from 2000 to 2020. Furthermore, the spatial correlation of carbon emissions among the study areas is explored. Four typical regions with spatial association (Beijing, Hebei, Sichuan, and Anhui) are selected, and their land-use change trends in 2025 and 2030 are simulated to predict the total carbon emissions in the future. The results show that the distribution of land-use in China is mainly cultivated and woodland, but the growth of urban built-up (UBL) land area indirectly leads to the continuous increase of carbon emissions. Total carbon emissions have increased over the past two decades, albeit at a slower growth rate, with some provinces experiencing no further growth. In the typical regional carbon emission simulation, it is found that the carbon emissions of the four provinces would show a downward trend in the future. The main reason is the reduction in indirect carbon emissions from fossil energy in UBL, while the other part is the influx of carbon sinks due to grassland, woodland, etc. We recommended that future carbon reduction measures should focus and prioritize controlling fossil energy and mitigating carbon emissions from UBL. Simultaneously, the significant contribution of forests and other land types as carbon sinks should be acknowledged to better implement China's carbon neutral commitment.

    Abstract Purpose: Analysis of four newborn screening modes using newborn genomic sequencing (nGS) and traditional biochemical screening (TBS).
    Methods: Prospective clinical study with a total of 1,012 newborn samples from retrospective TBS. Three independent groups performed the study under strict double-blind conditions according to the screening modes: independent biochemical (IBS), independent NeoSeq (INS), sequential (SS), and combined (CS) screening. Using targeted sequencing, the NeoSeq panel included 154 pathogenic genes covering 86 diseases.
    Results: Of the 1,012 newborns, 120 were diagnosed were diagnosed with genetic diseases Among them, 52 cases were within the scope of TBS and 68 additional cases were identified through nGS. The number of cases detected per screening mode was 50, 113, 56, and 119 for IBS, INS, SS, and CS, respectively. CS was the most satisfactory screening mode, with the detection rate of 99.17%, the specificity and positive predictive value of 100%, and the negative predictive value of 99.89%. In addition, of the 68 cases identified by nGS (96 variants in 31 pathogenic genes), only four participants (5.9%) had clinical manifestations consistent with the disease. The experimental reporting cycles of CS and INS were the shortest.
    Conclusions: CS was the most satisfactory method for newborn screening, which combined nGS with TBS to improve early diagnosis.
