    Series title Compendium of plant genomes
    Abstract This book presents comprehensive information on genetics, genomics and breeding in Brassica oleracea, an agriculturally important species that includes popular vegetable crops such as cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, kale, collard greens, savoy, kohlrabi, and gai lan. The content spans whole genome sequencing, assembly and gene annotation for this global vegetable species, along with molecular mapping and cloning of genes, physical genome mapping and analyses of the structure and composition of centromeres in the B. oleracea genome. The book also elaborates on asymmetrical genome evolution and transposable elements in the B. oleracea describes gene family differentiation in comparison to other Brassica species and structural and functional genomic resources and data bases developed for B. oleracea. Useful discussions on the impact of genome sequencing on genetic improvement in the species are also included.

    Abstract At present, the occurrence of a large number of infectious and non-communicable diseases poses a serious threat to human health as well as to drug development for the treatment of these diseases. One of the most significant challenges is finding new drug candidates that are therapeutically effective and have few or no side effects. In this respect, the active compounds in medicinal plants, especially flavonoids, are potentially useful compounds with a wide range of pharmacological activities. They are naturally present in nature and valuable in the treatment of many infectious and non-communicable diseases. Flavonoids are divided into fourteen categories and are mainly derived from plant extraction, chemical synthesis and structural modification, and biosynthesis. The structural modification of flavonoids is an important way to discover new drugs, but biosynthesis is currently considered the most promising research direction with the potential to revolutionize the new production pipeline in the synthesis of flavonoids. However, relevant problems such as metabolic pathway analyses and cell synthesis protocols for flavonoids need to be addressed on an urgent basis. In the present review, new research techniques for assessing the biological activities of flavonoids and the mechanisms of their biological activities are elucidated and their modes of interaction with other drugs are described. Moreover, novel drug delivery systems, such as nanoparticles, bioparticles, colloidals, etc., are gradually becoming new means of addressing the issues of poor hydrophilicity, lipophilicity, poor chemical stability, and low bioavailability of flavonoids. The present review summarizes the latest research progress on flavonoids, existing problems with their therapeutic efficacy, and how these issues can be solved with the research on flavonoids.

    Abstract Introduction: Epilepsy is the third most common neurological disorder in elderly people. Patients with epilepsy (PWEs) are more likely to have comorbidities. Social support is very important for PWEs. However, there are many gaps in the research on social support in older PWEs, especially the correlation between social support and comorbidities.
    Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in three hospitals in China. Social support was assessed using the Social Support Rate Scale. The burden of physical comorbidities was assessed using the CCI, and global disability was assessed using the mRS. The NDDIE was used to assess depression, the GAD7 was used for anxiety, the CDR was used for cognitive status, and the NPI was used for psychotic symptoms.
    Results: A total of 154 older PWEs participated in the study. There were 97 patients with at least one physical comorbidities. The burden of physical comorbidities was negatively correlated with overall social support (Adj. r = -0.35, P < 0.001) and global disability (Adj. r = -0.45, P < 0.001). In terms of psychiatric comorbidities, anxiety, depression, and cognitive status were not correlated with overall social support (Adj. r = -0.03, -0.02, and -0.11, P > 0.05). Psychotic symptoms were correlated with overall social support (Adj. r = -0.20, P < 0.05). The overall burden of psychiatric comorbidities was associated with overall social support (r = 0.30, P < 0.01).
    Discussion: Neurologists and social workers should consider more personalized biopsychosocial care to improve the quality of life of older PWEs.

    Abstract Numerical simulations of the eight major tidal constituents (M 2 , S 2 , K 1 , O 1 , N 2 , K 2 , P 1 , and Q 1 ) in the Bohai, Yellow and East China Seas (BYES) were conducted using the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) based on altimeter products from X-TRACK. Tidal harmonic constants and two-dimensional tidal current data with a spatial resolution of 1/12° were obtained. To validate the simulation results (SRs), harmonic constants from altimeters and tide gauges, two sea level anomaly time series, and velocity observations from 12 current meters were utilized. Additionally, data from five tidal models were used for comparison. The validation and comparison results demonstrated the accuracy of SR, especially when compared with coastal tide gauge data where SR performs exceptionally well. The cotidal charts and tidal current ellipses obtained through SR exhibited good continuity and consistency with the previous studies, effectively reflecting the tidal characteristics of the BYES. The SR can serve as a valuable reference and support for tidal-related fields in the BYES, including the supplement and verification of ocean measurements and the calculation of reference planes for ocean engineering.

    Abstract Objective: Recently, deep learning models have been used to reconstruct parallel magnetic resonance (MR) images from undersampled k-space data. However, most existing approaches depend on large databases of fully sampled MR data for training, which can be challenging or sometimes infeasible to acquire in certain scenarios. The goal is to develop an effective alternative for improved reconstruction quality that does not rely on external training datasets.
    Approach: We introduce a novel zero-shot dual-domain fusion unsupervised neural network (DFUSNN) for parallel MR imaging reconstruction without any external training datasets. We employ the Noise2Noise (N2N) network for the reconstruction in the k-space domain, integrates phase and coil sensitivity smoothness priors into the k-space N2N network, and uses an early stopping criterion to prevent overfitting. Additionally, we propose a dual-domain fusion method based on Bayesian optimization to enhance reconstruction quality efficiently.
    Results: Simulation experiments conducted on three datasets with different undersampling patterns showed that the DFUSNN outperforms all other competing unsupervised methods and the one-shot Hankel-k-space generative model (HKGM). The DFUSNN also achieves comparable results to the supervised Deep-SLR method.
    Significance: The novel DFUSNN model offers a viable solution for reconstructing high quality MR images without the need for external training datasets, thereby overcoming a major hurdle in scenarios where acquiring fully sampled MR data is difficult.

    Abstract Objective: Observational studies have shown an association between COVID-19 and epilepsy. However, causality remains unproven. This study aimed to investigate the causative effect of genetically predicted COVID-19 phenotypes on epilepsy risk using a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.
    Methods: We retrieved summary-level datasets for three COVID-19 phenotypes (COVID-19 susceptibility, COVID-19 hospitalization, and COVID-19 severity) and epilepsy from the genome-wide association studies conducted by the COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative (COVID-19 HGI) and International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) consortium, respectively. To analyze the final results, nine MR analytic methods were utilized. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was chosen as the primary approach for data analysis to evaluate the potential causal effect. Other MR analytic methods (MR-Egger regression, weighted median estimator, mode based-estimator, and MR-PRESSO) were used as a supplement to IVW to ensure the robustness of the results.
    Results: The IVW approach demonstrated no causal association between any genetically predicted COVID-19 phenotype and the risk of epilepsy [COVID-19 susceptibility: odds ratio (OR) = 0.99, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.86-1.14, p = 0.92; COVID-19 hospitalization: OR = 1.00, 95% CI = 0.96-1.04, p = 0.95; COVID-19 severity: OR = 0.99, 95% CI = 0.96-1.01, p = 0.25]. Other MR complementary methods revealed consistent results. Additionally, no evidence for heterogeneity and horizontal pleiotropy was found.
    Significance: This MR study revealed no genetically predicted causal relationship between COVID-19 phenotypes and epilepsy.
