Unraveling Groundwater Challenges in Iran’s Jazmurian Basin—A GIS and Statistical Odyssey
Arid regions globally face a dual crisis: shrinking groundwater and declining quality. Our study in Scientific Reports explores 18 years of data in Iran’s Jazmurian Basin, using GIS and advanced statistics to reveal salinity spikes, drought risks, and degradation drivers.
Unlocking the Reservoir: A Practical Guide to Geological Core Analysis

RNF112 facilitates ubiquitin-mediated degradation of c-Myc, suppressing proliferation, migration and lipid synthesis in bladder cancer
This study revealed that RNF112 is significantly downregulated in bladder cancer (BLCA) and demonstrated that the RNF112/c-Myc/ACLY axis drives BLCA progression by regulating cell proliferation, metastasis and lipid synthesis.
