    Abstract In this paper, the non-Markovian dynamics of an optomechanical system is analyzed by using the non-Markovian quantum state diffusion (NMQSD) method. An exact solution is obtained for the system composed of a Fabry-Pérot (F-P) cavity with two movable mirrors without the linearization of the Hamiltonian. Based on the solution, we find that the memory effect of the non-Markovian environment can be used to generate macroscopic entanglement between two mirrors. In order to achieve the maximum entanglement generation, the non-Markovian properties of the environment have to be chosen carefully depending on the properties of the system. Then, we also show that the coherence (superposition) in the initial state may produce entanglement in the evolution. At last, we show the entanglement sudden death and revival significantly depend on the strength of the memory effect, and the entanglement revival can be only observed in non-Markovian case. Our treatment, as an example, paves a way to exactly solve a large category of optomechanical systems without the linearization of the Hamiltonian.

    Abstract Study objectives: Psychiatric comorbidities are relatively common among patients with epilepsy; however, the underlying mechanisms of this association remain largely unknown. The objective of this Mendelian randomization (MR) study was to analyze the genetic correlations and causality underlying these reciprocal associations.
    Methods: Single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with epilepsy (29,677 controls and 15,212 cases) and seven psychiatric comorbidities (485,436 controls and 269,495 cases) were identified from genome-wide association studies. Causal significance was estimated using inverse variance weighting. Sensitivity analyses included the weighted median, MR-Egger, and MR-PRESSO. The psychiatric comorbidities analyzed in this study included attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder, major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and anorexia nervosa.
    Results: Both forward and reverse genetic associations were observed for the selected psychiatric disorders. Notably, ADHD was significantly associated with an increased risk of generalized epilepsy (odds ratio [OR], 1.09; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.01-1.18; p = 0.013). However, MR-PRESSO detected the existence of pleiotropy (p = 0.001). Additionally, focal epilepsy was significantly associated with a higher risk of OCD (OR, 1.44; 95 % CI, 1.08-1.92; p = 0.013), and all sensitivity tests yielded favorably nonsignificant results. There was no significant genetic association between epilepsy and other examined psychiatric disorders. However, due to the detection of pleiotropy by MR-Egger and considerations related to the threshold for genetic instruments, a cautious approach is warranted in interpreting some of the results.
    Conclusions: This study revealed significant genetic causality between focal epilepsy and OCD, as well as between ADHD and generalized epilepsy. However, no casual significance was observed with other psychiatric comorbidities examined. Considering the inherent limitations of MR studies, further research is warranted to definitively clarify these genetic causal associations.

  3. Article ; Online: Ultra-Wide-Field Optical Coherence Tomography and Gaussian Curvature to Assess Macular and Paravascular Retinoschisis in High Myopia.

    Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the severity and related factors of macular retinoschisis (MRS) and paravascular retinoschisis (PVRS) in high myopia (HM) using ultra-wide-field optical coherence tomography (UWF-OCT) and a novel Gaussian curvature (K).
    Design: A cross-sectional study.
    Methods: Patients diagnosed with HM in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were recruited between January 2022 and November 2022. The presence and severity of retinoschisis, along with the three highest K values, were assessed using UWF-OCT and en face images. Logistic regressions were employed to identify factors associated with MRS, PVRS, and the severity of retinoschisis in the 24 × 20 mm scan region.
    Results: A total of 108 HM eyes from 55 patients were recruited. The highest Gaussian curvature (K1) was predominantly found in the vascular arcade (43, 40%). Multivariable logistic regression found that age and PVRS were significant risk factors for MRS occurrence (P < .05), while MRS and higher K1 were significantly associated with the presence of PVRS in HM patients (P < .05). The axial length (AL) and spherical equivalent were associated with the severity of MRS, while AL and K1 values were associated with the severity of retinoschisis in the 24 × 20 mm scan region (P < .05).
    Conclusions: An association existed between large Gaussian curvature and the presence of MRS and PVRS, as well as the severity of retinoschisis in a wide field of view. UWF-OCT, which enables visualization of the central and peripheral retinal areas, holds promise as an imaging technique for the early detection of extrafoveal retinoschisis.

    Abstract The main disposal method for municipal solid waste (MSW), including the growing worldwide volumes of kitchen waste, involves transport to landfills. Because kitchen waste is mainly composed of organic matter and has a high moisture content, large amounts of leachate and landfill gas are generated when it is sent to landfills. Therefore, rapid waste stabilization is essential. In this study, four semi-aerobic bioreactors (named NS, SS, MS, and LS) were established with void fractions of 33.76%, 39.84%, 44.62%, and 41.31%, respectively. The results showed that the void fractions of landfill directly affected the gas flow path. When the landfill void fraction was small (e.g., NS), most airflow traveled directly through the pipeline and minimal airflow entered the waste layer. When the landfill void fraction was large (e.g., MS), air easily entered the waste layer and some air flowed into the gas vent with the landfill gas. As the reaction proceeded, the void fraction gradually decreased due to gravity-induced sedimentation. During the water addition experiment, the voids were occupied by water, leading to formation of an anaerobic area. Among the four bioreactors, only MS had negligible formation of an anaerobic zone in the center. Methane (CH

    Abstract Conjugated polymers are commonly adopted to develop electro- and photoresponsive materials due to their superior electronic conductivity and phototothermal convertibility. However, they are usually homogeneously polymerized within the network, which makes their functionalities challenging to spatiotemporally modulate.

    Abstract Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is a neurodevelopment disorder characterized by cognitive impairment, behavioral challenges, and synaptic abnormalities, with a genetic basis linked to a mutation in the FMR1 (Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein 1) gene that results in a deficiency or absence of its protein product, Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein (FMRP). In recent years, mass spectrometry (MS) - based proteomics has emerged as a powerful tool to uncover the complex molecular landscape underlying FXS. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the proteomics studies focused on FXS, summarizing key findings with an emphasis on dysregulated proteins associated with FXS. These proteins span a wide range of cellular functions including, but not limited to, synaptic plasticity, RNA translation, and mitochondrial function. The work conducted in these proteomic studies provides a more holistic understanding to the molecular pathways involved in FXS and considerably enhances our knowledge into the synaptic dysfunction seen in FXS.

    Abstract Extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA), derived from chromosomes, is a cancer-specific circular DNA molecule. EcDNA drives tumor initiation and progression, which is associated with poor clinical outcomes and drug resistance in a wide range of cancers. Although ecDNA was first discovered in 1965, tremendous technological revolutions in recent years have provided crucial new insights into its key biological functions and regulatory mechanisms. Here, we provide a thorough overview of the methods, bioinformatics tools, and database resources used in ecDNA research, mainly focusing on their performance, strengths, and limitations. This study can provide important reference for selecting the most appropriate method in ecDNA research. Furthermore, we offer suggestions for the current bioinformatics analysis of ecDNA and provide an outlook to the future research.
