Chronic visceral pain is a persistent and debilitating condition arising from dysfunction or sensitization of the visceral organs and their associated nervous pathways. Increasing evidence suggests that imbalances in central nervous system function play an essential role in the progression of visceral pain, but the exact mechanisms underlying the neural circuitry and molecular targets remain largely unexplored. In the present...

The rapid climatic fluctuations and geographical factors during the Quaternary glacial period, particularly in the Pleistocene epoch, play a pivotal role in shaping intraspecific genetic diversity. We conducted an investigation into the genetic structure and speciation mechanisms of a small mammal species, Asiatic Short‐Tailed Shrew ( Blarinella quadraticauda ), which is mainly distributed in the mountains surrounding the Sich...

The drying‐rewetting of soil can increase the release of greenhouse gases over a short time period and is one of the key pathways for greenhouse gas emissions in many terrestrial ecosystems, particularly in drylands. The mechanisms underlying this pulse of greenhouse gas emissions remain nearly unknown. Here, we conducted simulated soil rewetting experiments using typical cover of dryland soils (bareland, cyanobacteria/lichen‐...
