The dynamics of soil organic carbon (SOC) play a critical role in the global carbon cycle. In context of global warming, numerous experimental studies have reported temperature-sensitive responses of SOC. However, the limited temporal frequency and spatial density of repeated sampling and whole-profile SOC observations have hindered the understanding of large-scale, long-term spatiotemporal patterns of SOC and their responses to environment changes under global warming, thereby constraining the ability to accurately predict the global carbon cycle.

Global warming accelerates glacier melting, which releases antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) into downstream ecosystems, poses a threat to ecological security and human health. Revealing the distribution and potential risks of ARGs in glaciers is crucial for assessing the impact of glacier melting caused by climate change on downstream ecosystems. Based on the above background, a research team of the Center for Pan-third Pole Environment of Lanzhou University published “Profiles and risk assessment of antibiotic resistome between Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and Polar Regions”.

This study analyzes 20 years of data from the Food and Drug Administration’s Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) to reveal trends in drug-induced fatty liver disease (DIFLD), identifying high-risk drug classes and vulnerable populations, and highlighting the need for region-specific pharmacovigilance and tailored interventions.

The dental pulp is susceptible to microbial infection, which often results in inflammation, necrosis, and defects in the pulp-dentin complex. Traditional treatment strategies suffer from multiple limitations and do not promote neural regeneration. In a new International Journal of Oral Science study, researchers have now developed an injectable composite hydrogel containing bioceramics and gelatin methacrylate matrix with photo-crosslinking properties that promote neural differentiation and odontogenesis, opening doors to a new strategy for pulp-dentin complex repair.

Acute sepsis alters how intravenous fluids and vasoactive drugs function in the body. Using a sheep model, researchers examined how sepsis affects the distribution of crystalloid fluids and the effectiveness of vasoactive drugs. Results showed that sepsis reduced urine output, weakened drug responses, and caused fluid to accumulate in the interstitial “third fluid space.” These findings highlight how sepsis disrupts normal fluid regulation, complicating effective fluid and drug management during treatment.

Researchers in China developed a 'one-pot' Cas12i3/Cas13d-based assay, designated OBServe.v2, to discriminate between ASFV genotype I and II. This method demonstrates complete concordance with the PCR-sequencing method within 45 min.

Researchers developed DeepMet, a new AI system that sharply improves long-range weather forecasting across the U.S. The model predicts key temperature and humidity patterns up to 45 days ahead with far greater accuracy than current systems, helping identify extreme heat and cold events earlier. DeepMet offers faster, more reliable guidance for climate preparedness and public-health protection.
