Reconstitution of RAGE promotes the remission of replication stress-associated defects. (A) The graphical presentation of the total number of colonies formed from the assay is shown in Supplementary Figure 24 A. Data represent mean ± SD, ****P < 0.0001; n = 6. Panel EV represents the cells transfected with an empty vector, FL represents full-length RAGE, ΔCTD or ΔNTD represents the deletion constructs, and MNBR represents Mcm2 non-binding RAGE. Details of these constructs were described in Supplementary Figure 2 A. (B) The graphical presentation of the total number of OPT domain associated large 53BP1 foci is shown in Figure 8C. Data represent mean ± SD, ****P < 0.0001; n = 3; >300 cells were analyzed for each condition. (C) Representative images of the OPT domain associated single large 53BP1 foci observed in HU (2 mM, 4 h) treated WT or RAGE−/− Hela cells reconstituted with the various RAGE constructs. The areas marked in dotted boxes are shown in the zoomed window. The abbreviations for EV, FL, ΔNTD, ΔCTD, and MNBR are mentioned in (A) (scale 25 μm). (D) Quantitative analysis of the frequency of micronuclei in WT and RAGE−/− HeLa cells shown in Supplementary Figure 25. Data represent mean ± SD, ****P < 0.0001; n = 3; >240 cells were analyzed for each condition.

Mobile measurements of CH4 across emitted plume from plant W011 in August for 11 downwind transects along the far downwind (north) side of the highway (a) and associated posterior PDF for all 22 transects (b) colored by transect number. The PDF measured after the first transect processed using an initial uninformative uniform prior distribution is shown as a dotted black line in (b). Measured CH4 concentrations are averaged over the north and south transects (c), and insets provide a comparison of the modeled (orange) and measured (cyan) enhancements. Significant enhancements are observed downwind of the anaerobic digesters toward the north end of the plant (pink cross). For reference, ERA5 model wind direction was 167° east of north.

Ratio of measured CH4 emissions to IPCC-based estimates for 63 domestic wastewater treatment plants plotted by flow rate (MGD). Both axes are plotted on a logarithmic scale. Colors/markers indicate the type of treatment used by each plant. Values lying above the one-to-one line (black dotted horizontal line) are shaded blue, representing measurements that are greater than IPCC-based estimates. Conversely, values lying below the one-to-one line are shaded orange, suggesting that true emissions are overestimated when using the IPCC guidelines. The median ratio of 2.9 across all measured sites is presented (red line). For clarity, error bars in the x-direction are omitted.

Before reaming, the size of the smallest medullary cavity file should be compared according to the preoperative CT results. First, use a hand drill to ream the medulla, then circulate the wire 2cm below the osteotomy surface to avoid bursting, and then use a pendulum saw to split it vertically. End the femoral cortex to the steel wire, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the direction and extent of iatrogenic fractures during the operation. CT = computed tomography.

Shared Decision Making Model. Shared Decision Making is a model through which clinicians collaborate with families to reach evidence-informed and value-congruent decisions regarding medical interventions. When multiple of the available choices are ethically equivalent and there exists uncertainty regarding outcomes, an emphasis is placed on value-congruent care and family participation in decision making.
