We present high-throughput screening （HTS） data for 3 762 distinct global gene knockout （KO） mouse lines with viable adult homozygous mice generated using either gene-trap or homologous recombination technologies. Bone mass was determined from DEXA scans of male and female mice at 14 weeks of age and by microCT analyses of bones from male mice at 16 weeks of age. Wild-type （WT） cagemates/littermates were examined for each gene KO. Lethality was observed in an additional 850 KO lines. Since primary HTS are susceptible to false positive findings, additional cohorts of mice from KO lines with intriguing HTS bone data were examined. Aging, ovariectomy, histomorphometry and bone strength studies were performed and possible non-skeletal phenotypes were explored. Together, these screens identified multiple genes affecting bone mass： 23 previously reported genes （Calcr, Cebpb, Crtap, Dcstamp, Dkkl, Duoxa2, Enppl, Fgf23, Kissl/Kisslr, Kl （Klotho）, Lrp5, Mstn, Neol, Npr2, Ostml, Postn, Sfrp4, S1c30a5, Sic39a13, Sost, Sumf1, Src, Wnt10b）, five novel genes extensively characterized （Cldn18, Fam20c, Lrrkl, Sgpll, Wnt16）, five novel genes with preliminary characterization （Agpat2, RassfS, Slc10a7, Stc26a7, Slc30a10） and three novel undisclosed genes coding for potential osteoporosis drug targets.展开更多

Ameloblastin(AMBN, also named "amelin" or "sheathlin") is the second most abundant enamel matrix protein known to have a key role in amelogenesis. Amelogenesis imperfecta(AI [MIM: 104500]) refers to a genetically and phenotypically heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by inherited developmental enamel defects. The hereditary dentin disorders comprise a variety of autosomal-dominant genetic symptoms characterized by abnormal dentin structure affecting either the primary or both the primary and secondary teeth. The vital role of Ambn in amelogenesis has been confirmed experimentally using mouse models. Only two cases have been reported of mutations of AMBN associated with non-syndromic human AI. However, no AMBN missense mutations have been reported to be associated with both human AI and dentin disorders.We recruited one kindred with autosomal-dominant amelogenesis imperfecta(ADAI) and dentinogenesis imperfecta/dysplasia characterized by generalized severe enamel and dentin defects. Whole exome sequencing of the proband identified a novel heterozygous C-T point mutation at nucleotide position 1069 of the AMBN gene, causing a Pro to Ser mutation at the conserved amino acid position 357 of the protein. Exfoliated third molar teeth from the affected family members were found to have enamel and dentin of lower mineral density than control teeth, with thinner and easily fractured enamel, short and thick roots, and pulp obliteration. This study demonstrates, for the first time, that an AMBN missense mutation causes non-syndromic human AI and dentin disorders.展开更多

文摘Smart grid substation operations often take place in hazardous environments and pose significant threats to the safety of power personnel.Relying solely on manual supervision can lead to inadequate oversight.In response to the demand for technology to identify improper operations in substation work scenarios,this paper proposes a substation safety action recognition technology to avoid the misoperation and enhance the safety management.In general,this paper utilizes a dual-branch transformer network to extract spatial and temporal information from the video dataset of operational behaviors in complex substation environments.Firstly,in order to capture the spatial-temporal correlation of people's behaviors in smart grid substation,we devise a sparse attention module and a segmented linear attention module that are embedded into spatial branch transformer and temporal branch transformer respectively.To avoid the redundancy of spatial and temporal information,we fuse the temporal and spatial features using a tensor decomposition fusion module by a decoupled manner.Experimental results indicate that our proposed method accurately detects improper operational behaviors in substation work scenarios,outperforming other existing methods in terms of detection and recognition accuracy.
文摘The Chinese government promotes smoking cessation through smoking cessation clinics(SCCs).This study aimed to identify factors associated with relapse and provide evidence to inform interventions that reduce relapse risk.Participants were SCC patients aged≥18 years who enrolled between June 2019 and December 2021,completed follow-up assessments at one and three months,and reported abstinence at one month.Short-term relapse was defined as self-reported smoking at the three-month follow-up.Treatments included counseling,first-line cessation medications,and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).Logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with short-term relapse.Among 10,724 eligible SCC patients,11.6%experienced short-term relapse.Factors positively associated with relapse included the number of previous quit attempts(1–5 attempts:OR=1.422,95%CI:1.254–1.613,>5 attempts:OR=1.382,95%CI:1.057–1.808),high perceived difficulty in quitting(OR=1.297,95%CI:1.061–1.586),and moderate(OR=1.383,95%CI:1.174–1.629)or weak(OR=1.517,95%CI:1.251–1.841)willingness to quit.Factors negatively associated with relapse included having a college degree or higher(OR=0.796;95%CI:0.650–0.973),high confidence in quitting(OR=0.786;95%CI:0.629–0.983),and use of TCM(OR=0.276;95%CI:0.158–0.482).Enhancing self-efficacy in quitting appears crucial for preventing short-term relapse.The use of TCM may reduce relapse risk and warrants further investigation.

文摘Clarifying the system structure of various influencing factors is a crucial prerequisite for identifying the key action point to address the“Energy Trilemma”in China’s natural gas industry.Based on the three-dimensional system of“safety and stability-economic feasibility-low-carbon and environmental protection,”an influencing factor system for the“Energy Trilemma”in the natural gas industry is constructed.

文摘Identifying the active compounds in complex herbal medicines remains a critical topic in medical research and development.Traditional screening methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive,significantly hindering the advancement of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)[1].For instance,Angong Niuhuang pills(AGNHP),a widely used TCM formulation,has emerged as a prominent treatment for stroke,demonstrating significant thera-peutic effects[2].
