Background Systematic reviews of health interventions are increasingly incorporating evidence
outside of randomized controlled trials (RCT). While non-randomized study (NRS) types …

Background Specific genetic contributions for preeclampsia (PE) are currently unknown.
This genome-wide association study (GWAS) aims to identify maternal single nucleotide …

The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed social inequities that rival biological inequities in
disease exposure and severity. Merely identifying some inequities without understanding all of …

Background Asthma is a phenotypically diverse disease with genetic susceptibility. A single
nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the CD14 gene at position -260 (also known as -159) C>…

Following the wisdom of nature to assemble functional candidates into exquisite
nanoarchitectures is emerging as a promising field of research and has been widely applied in …

Protein nanostructures are of great interest in the field of bionics, owing not only to their
biocompatible and biodegradable properties, but also to their high structural durability, which …

The precise detection of atherosclerosis has been a research hot point since its importance
in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. Here we synthesized a near-infrared fluorescent …

The elegant elasticity and toughness of muscles that are controlled by myofilament sliding,
highly elastic springlike properties of titin, and Ca 2+ -induced conformational change of the …

A controllable protein nanostructures-based “On/Off” switchable artificial light-harvesting
system (LHS) with sequential multistep energy transfer and photocatalysis was reported herein …

Stable protein one (SP1) has been demonstrated as an appealing building block to design
highly ordered architectures, despite the hybrid assembly with other nano-objects still being a …
