    Abstract Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is caused by many factors, and most newborns with IUGR are small for gestational age (SGA). SGA infants have a relatively high risk of death and disease in the perinatal period, and the nervous system already has structural changes in the uterus, including the reduction of brain volume and gray matter volume, accompanied by abnormal imaging and pathological changes. IUGR fetuses undergo intrauterine blood flow redistribution to protect brain blood supply, and there are still controversies over the clinical effect of brain protection mechanism. SGA infants have a relatively high risk of abnormal cognitive, motor, language, and behavioral functions in the neonatal period and childhood, and preterm infants tend to have a higher degree of neurological impairment than full-term infants. Early intervention may help to improve the function of the nervous system.

    Abstract Scholars have documented the transformation of modern motherhood, as mothering practices have been a target of medical knowledge that comes to define correct modes of conduct for women caring for their pregnant bodies, undergoing childbirth and childrearing. Such accounts usually set scientific knowledge and medical authority in opposition to women's autonomy. Drawing on the interviews with immigrant Chinese mothers in Canada, we offer a different account of knowledge and agency in new motherhood. These women's often-intense experiences of intergenerational care-giving associated with the practice of zuo yuezi reveal a more fluid relationship between medical authority and mothering agency. We find that the central tension during the postpartum experience lies in intergenerational and family relationships. In this context, new mothers draw on alternative sources of knowledge-and medical professionals are one such key source-to demonstrate within the family their competence to make care decisions for themselves and their babies. These women's use of medical knowledge to counter a familial and intergenerational authority complicates dominant accounts about medicalisation, demonstrating that women's relationship to medical knowledge and authority maybe be far more fluid and complex than a standard account of medicalisation and loss of women's agency would predict.

    Abstract Protein complexes, as the fundamental units of cellular function and regulation, play a crucial role in understanding the normal physiological functions of cells. Existing methods for protein complex identification attempt to introduce other biological information on top of the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network to assist in evaluating the degree of association between proteins. However, these methods usually treat protein interaction networks as flat homogeneous static networks. They cannot distinguish the roles and importance of different types of biological information, nor can they reflect the dynamic changes of protein complexes. In recent years, heterogeneous network representation learning has achieved great success in processing complex heterogeneous information and mining deep semantics. We thus propose a temporal protein complex identification method based on Dynamic Heterogeneous Protein information network Representation Learning, DHPRL. DHPRL naturally integrates multiple types of heterogeneous biological information in the cellular temporal dimension. It simultaneously models the temporal dynamic properties of proteins and the heterogeneity of biological information to improve the understanding of protein interactions and the accuracy of complex prediction. Firstly, we construct Dynamic Heterogeneous Protein Information Network (DHPIN) by integrating temporal gene expression information and GO attribute information. Then we design a dual-view collaborative contrast mechanism. Specifically, proposing to learn protein representations from two views of DHPIN (1-hop relation view and meta-path view) to model the consistency and specificity between nearest-neighbour bio information and deeper biological semantics. The dynamic PPI network is thereafter re-weighted based on the learned protein representations. Finally, we perform protein identification on the re-weighted dynamic PPI network. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that DHPRL can effectively model complicated biological information and achieve state-of-the-art performance in most cases. The source code and datasets for DHPR are available at https://github.com/LI-jasm/DHPRL.

    Abstract Traditional drug development is often high-risk and time-consuming. A promising alternative is to reuse or relocate approved drugs. Recently, some methods based on graph representation learning have started to be used for drug repositioning. These models learn the low dimensional embeddings of drug and disease nodes from the drug-disease interaction network to predict the potential association between drugs and diseases. However, these methods have strict requirements for the dataset, and if the dataset is sparse, the performance of these methods will be severely affected. At the same time, these methods have poor robustness to noise in the dataset. In response to the above challenges, we propose a drug repositioning model based on self-supervised graph learning with adptive denoising, called SADR. SADR uses data augmentation and contrastive learning strategies to learn feature representations of nodes, which can effectively solve the problems caused by sparse datasets. SADR includes an adaptive denoising training (ADT) component that can effectively identify noisy data during the training process and remove the impact of noise on the model. We have conducted comprehensive experiments on three datasets and have achieved better prediction accuracy compared to multiple baseline models. At the same time, we propose the top 10 new predictive approved drugs for treating two diseases. This demonstrates the ability of our model to identify potential drug candidates for disease indications.

    Abstract This article examines mediated performances of emotions by Chinese international students in their transnational journeys returning to China during the COVID-19 pandemic with a focus on the role of mobile media in helping students cope with their cross-border (im)mobility and symbolic immobility. By thematically analyzing 36 self-representational videos produced by returning Chinese students on a burgeoning mobile media platform Douyin, we identify 5 overarching themes of emotional performance: fear, pride, gratitude, shame, and solidarity. We propose that mobile media has the potential to create a hybrid space that witnesses and elicits empathy for the hardship experienced by marginalized mobile groups during the global pandemic. Mobile media, by enabling simultaneous communication, amplifies the sensation of belonging in times of isolation and ambiguity and offers dialogic venues for disparate groups across geographical and socioemotional distances. Our findings suggest the vulnerability of mobile communities in the event of a global pandemic, and the affordances of mobile media in confronting and resolving such precarity. We call attention to the intersections of mobile communities and mobile media amid the global pandemic, particularlyon the experiences and performances of emotions in hybrid spaces.

    Abstract Inonotus obliquus is a medicinal fungus with potential for use in various health applications. To better utilize this fungus, this study focused on epidermis and internal tissues of five sclerotia from different regions in Jilin, Inner Mongolia, and Heilongjiang, examining their polyphenols, polysaccharides, flavonoids, and total triterpenes contents. And evaluated the extracts from sclerotia for their total antioxidant capacity and scavenging ability of DPPH free radicals. The study also isolated the associated fungi from the epidermis and internal tissues of three sclerotia. Results revealed that the polyphenol content was higher in the epidermis than in internal tissue of every sclerotium. However, flavonoid and total triterpenoid content was lower in the epidermis of every sclerotium. The polysaccharide content was no significant in different parts of three sclerotia, but the epidermal polysaccharide content in two sclerotia was significantly higher than in internal tissues. The internal tissue extracts from tested sclerotia exhibited better scavenging ability of DPPH free radicals than those from the epidermis. There was no significant difference in total antioxidant capacity among different parts of three sclerotia, and the internal tissues' total antioxidant capacity in two sclerotia was higher than the epidermis. The number and species of associated fungi in the internal tissues were far less than that in the epidermis. The study suggests separating the epidermis and internal tissue for medicinal use. The research provides insights into the bioactive components and associated fungi of I. obliquus to inform its practical application in medicine.
