Background/Objectives: Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) is an antibody–drug conjugate targeting Trop-2 that has demonstrated clinical benefits in randomised trials for patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) and metastatic hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative (HR+/HER2− mBC) disease. However, real-world data on its effectiveness and safety are limited, especially in patients with poor performance status or central nervous system (CNS) involvement. This study aimed to evaluate the real-world outcomes of SG in these two subtypes. Methods: We conducted a retrospective, multicentre, observational study across three tertiary hospitals in Spain. Patients with mTNBC or HR+/HER2− mBC treated with SG between June 2022 and March 2025 were included. Clinical data, treatment history, adverse events (AEs), and survival outcomes were also recorded. The median progression-free survival (mPFS) and median overall survival (mOS) were estimated using Kaplan–Meier analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the factors influencing outcomes. The association between granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) prophylaxis and neutropenia was assessed using Fisher’s exact test. Results: A total of 56 patients were included in this study (33 with mTNBC and 23 with HR+/HER2− mBC). In the mTNBC group, mPFS was 4.0 months (95% CI: 1.94–5.98) and mOS was 11.0 months (95% CI: 4.80–17.12). In the HR+/HER2− mBC group, mPFS was 3.7 months (95% CI: 2.02–5.44) and mOS was 20.2 months (95% CI: 3.9–36.5). Fatigue, neutropenia, and gastrointestinal toxicity were the most common AEs. Primary G-CSF prophylaxis was not associated with a reduced incidence of neutropenia (p = 0.434). Conclusions: In routine practice, SG shows effectiveness comparable to that of randomised trials across both subtypes, with a safety profile consistent with pivotal studies. The observed toxicity profile was consistent with that described in pivotal clinical trials and other studies. The prophylactic use of G-CSF was not associated with an impact on the occurrence of neutropenia, but the incidence of neutropenia was lower than that in clinical trials and other studies that did not administer G-CSF prophylactically.

The anaerobic co-digestion of agricultural residues emerges as a promising strategy for energy recovery and nutrient recycling within circular agricultural systems. This study aimed to optimize co-digestion parameters for vinegar residue (VR) and cattle manure (CM) using an orthogonal experimental design. Three key variables were investigated which are the co-substrate ratio (VR to CM), feedstock-to-inoculum (F/I) ratio, and total solids (TS) content. Nine experimental combinations were tested to evaluate methane yield, feedstock degradation, and digestate characteristics. Results showed that the optimal condition for methane yield comprised a 2:3 co-substrate ratio, 1:2 F/I ratio, and 20% TS, achieving the highest methane yield of 267.84 mL/g volatile solids (VS) and a vs. degradation rate of 58.65%. Digestate analysis indicated this condition generated the most nutrient-rich liquid digestate and solid digestate, featuring elevated N, P, and K concentrations, acceptable seed germination indices (GI), and moderate humification levels. While total nutrient content did not meet commercial organic fertilizer standards, the digestate is suitable for direct land application in rural settings. This study underscores the need to balance energy recovery and fertilizer quality in anaerobic co-digestion systems, providing practical guidance for decentralized biogas plants seeking to integrate waste treatment with agricultural productivity.

Following the trend of food waste valorization to produce innovative bio-based materials, this study proposes the conversion of brewer’s spent grain (BSG) into added value edible, high oxygen barrier, flexible, active packaging films via an extrusion molding compression method. Gelatin (Gel) was used as both a reinforcement and barrier agent and glycerol (Gl) as a plasticizer. Eugenol was nanoencapsulated on natural zeolite (EG@NZ), and pure clove powder (ClP) was used as an active agent to obtain BSG/Gel/Gl/xEG@NZ and BSG/Gel/Gl/xClP (x = 5, 10, and 15 %wt.) active films. Both BSG/Gel/Gl/xEG@NZ and BSG/Gel/Gl/xClP films show enhanced tensile, oxygen barrier, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties, and low toxicity and genotoxicity values. All BSG/Gel/Gl/xEG@NZ films presented a higher oxygen barrier, higher total phenolic content (TPC) values, higher antioxidant activity according to a 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, higher inhibition zones against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, and lower toxicity and genotoxicity than all BSG/Gel/Gl/xClP films. Thus, the superiority of the nanoencapsulated EG in NZ as compared to the physical encapsulated EG in ClP is proved. Briefly, BSG/Gel/Gl/15EG@NZ active film exhibited ~218% higher tensile strength, ~93% higher TPC value, and ~90% lower effective concentration for a 60% antioxidant activity value (EC₆₀) as compared to the pure BSG/Gel/Gl film. The zones against S. aureus and E. coli were 45 and 30 mm, respectively, and the oxygen barrier was zero. The use of this film extended the shelf life of fresh minced meat by two days and exhibited the high potential to be used as active packaging material. Full article

Soils act as sources or sinks for three major greenhouse gases (CO₂, CH₄, and N₂O). Approximately 20% of global CO₂ emissions are released from soils through the soil respiration process. Soil respiration (soil CO₂ emission) can account for over 85% of ecosystem respiration. The aim of this study was to compare managed and unmanaged stands of pedunculate oak (Quercus robur L.) in order to investigate the impact of forest management on soil CO₂ emissions. We selected one managed and two unmanaged stands. The first stand (S1) represents a managed middle-aged stand, which is the optimal stage of development. The second stand (S2) belongs to the over-mature stage of development in an old-growth oak forest, while the third stand (S3) belongs to the decay stage of development in an old-growth oak forest. The closed chambers method was used for air sampling and the air samples were analyzed using gas chromatography (GC). Multiple regression models that include soil temperature (ST), soil moisture (SM), and their interaction provide a better explanation for variation in soil CO₂ emission (SCDE) (higher R² values) compared to regression models that only involve two variables (ST and SM). The study showed that SCDE in the decay stage of old-growth forest (S3) was significantly lower (p < 0.001) compared to the other two stands (S1 and S2). S3 is characterized by very low canopy cover and intensive natural regeneration, unlike S1 and S2. However, there were no significant differences in SCDE between the managed middle-aged stand (S1) and the over-mature (old-growth) stand (S2). Over a long-term rotation period in pedunculate oak forests, forest management practices that involve the periodic implementation of moderate silvicultural interventions can be deemed acceptable in terms of maintaining the carbon balance in the soil.

This paper is aimed at landscape managers and designers. It looks at 123 real-world coastal landscape projects and organizes them into clear design categories, i.e., wetland restoration, hybrid infrastructure, or urban green spaces. We looked at how these projects were framed (whether they focused on climate adaptation, flood protection, or other goals) and how they tracked performance. We are hoping to bring some clarity to a very scattered field, helping us to see patterns in what is actually being carried out in terms of landscape interventions and increasing sea levels. We are hoping to provide a practical reference for making better, more climate-responsive design decisions. Coastal cities face escalating climate-driven threats from increasing sea levels and storm surges to urban heat islands. These threats are driving increased interest in nature-based solutions (NbSs) as green adaptive alternatives to traditional gray infrastructure. Despite an abundance of individual case studies, there have been few systematic syntheses aimed at landscape designers and managers linking design typologies, project framing, and performance outcomes. This study addresses this gap through a meta-synthesis of 123 implemented coastal landscape interventions aimed directly at landscape-oriented research and professions. Flood risk reduction was the dominant framing strategy (30.9%), followed by climate resilience (24.4%). Critical evidence gaps emerged—only 1.6% employed integrated monitoring approaches, 30.1% provided ambiguous performance documentation, and mean monitoring quality scored 0.89 out of 5.0. While 95.9% of the projects acknowledged SLR as a driver, only 4.1% explicitly integrated climate projections into design parameters. Community monitoring approaches demonstrated significantly higher ecosystem service integration, particularly cultural services (36.4% vs. 6.9%, $p<0.001$), and enhanced monitoring quality (mean score 1.64 vs. 0.76, $p<0.001$). Implementation barriers spanned technical constraints, institutional fragmentation, and data limitations, each affecting 20.3% of projects. Geographic analysis revealed evidence generation inequities, with systematic underrepresentation of high-risk regions (Africa: 4.1%; Latin America: 2.4%) versus concentration in well-resourced areas (North America: 27.6%; Europe: 17.1%).

Background: This study investigated whether diaphragmatic breathing intervention could lead to acute improvements in trunk and shoulder mobility and pulmonary function in healthy young adults. Methods: Twenty-six physically active males (aged 24.3 ± 2.0 years, body height of 182.9 ± 6.4 cm, and body weight of 82.8 ± 10.4 kg) were randomly assigned to either an experimental or a control group. The experimental group underwent a 22 min diaphragmatic breathing intervention in a lying position. The control group lay passively, breathing naturally. Mobility assessments (chest expansion, thoracic spine rotation, lateral trunk flexion, and shoulder girdle mobility) and pulmonary function tests (forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in one second and their ratio) were conducted before and after the intervention. Results: Only experimental group showed significant improvements after the intervention (p ≤ 0.01) in the chest expansion (+22.2%, ES = 0.62), thoracic spine rotation (+21.7%, ES = 0.76 on the left and +23.3%, ES = 0.84 on the right side), lateral trunk flexion (+11.7%, ES = 0.62 on the left and +15.4%, ES = 1 on the right side), shoulder girdle mobility (+20.2%, ES = 0.44 on the left and +21.5%, ES = 0.38 on the right side), forced vital capacity (+4.7%, ES = 0.39) and reduction (p ≤ 0.01) in ratio between forced expiratory volume in one second and forced vital capacity (−4.6%, ES = 0.47). Conclusion: The results revealed that a 22 min diaphragmatic breathing intervention could immediately improve trunk and shoulder mobility and pulmonary function, likely due to anatomical relationships and more efficient use of respiratory muscles, especially the diaphragm.

Background/Objectives: Pediatric episodic vestibular syndrome (EVS) is increasingly recognized, with recurrent vertigo of childhood (RVC) and vestibular migraine of childhood (VMC) being the most prevalent disorders. In 2021, the Bárány Society and the International Headache Society proposed new diagnostic criteria for RVC, VMC, and probable VMC (pVMC), replacing the older term benign paroxysmal vertigo (BPV). This study aimed to evaluate the clinical applicability of these new criteria. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study at a pediatric neurotology clinic within a tertiary hospital, including patients under 18 years with episodic vestibular symptoms evaluated between 2018 and 2025. All patients underwent a standardized neuro-otological assessment. Diagnoses were assigned using both the 2018 ICHD-3 and the 2021 Bárány criteria. Patients who did not fulfill any of the three new diagnostic categories, nor met criteria for any other specific vestibular disorder, were grouped into an undetermined category referred to as episodic vestibular syndrome without hearing loss (EVSw/oHL). Demographic and clinical variables were compared across diagnostic groups using non-parametric and chi-squared tests. Results: Among the 202 children evaluated, 109 met the inclusion criteria and were classified as RVC (n = 55), VMC (n = 23), pVMC (n = 13), or EVSw/oHL (n = 18). All patients previously diagnosed with BPV met the new criteria for RVC. Application of the Bárány criteria significantly reduced the proportion of unclassified EVS cases (from 35.78% to 16.51%). Significant clinical differences were observed among the groups in terms of episode duration, presence of vomiting, migraine and headache, and family history of migraine. Conclusions: The new Bárány criteria provide a more inclusive and clinically meaningful framework for classifying pediatric EVS. They improve diagnostic clarity, reduce the proportion of unclassifiable cases, and support earlier and more tailored management strategies. Full article

Introduction: Gut dysbiosis has been associated with the development of autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Although previous studies suggest microbial alterations in SLE, evidence at the species level and its clinical relevance remain limited. This study aimed to characterise the gut microbiota at species level in SLE patients and evaluate its association with clinical features. Materials and methods: A total of 57 SLE patients and 57 matched controls were included. Faecal samples were collected using the OMNIgene-GUT kit, and microbial DNA was extracted with the Maxwell RSC PureFood GMO kit. Metagenomic sequencing was performed using the Illumina MiSeq platform, and the data was analysed with QIIME2. Microbial diversity and relative abundance were assessed using the phyloseq package, and differentially abundant taxa were identified using DESeq2. Clinical subgroups among SLE patients were identified via k-means clustering. Results: SLE patients exhibited significantly different beta diversity compared to controls (p = 0.001), with increased abundance of Pseudomonadota (3.81% vs. 6.80%, p < 0.05) and decreased Bacteroidota (53.42% vs. 38.04%, p < 0.05). Only 10 bacterial species were consistently present across all SLE samples, including Akkermansia muciniphila, Bacteroides dorei, and Lactobacillus gasseri. Hypertensive patients and those treated with corticosteroids presented a marked depletion of key microbial taxa. Conversely, Belimumab-treated patients displayed a distinct microbiota enriched in species such as Alistipes shahii and Prevotella corporis. Conclusions: This study confirms significant gut microbiota alterations in SLE and pinpoints microbial profiles associated with clinical subgroups. These findings suggest gut dysbiosis may contribute to SLE pathogenesis and indicate biomarkers for disease stratification. Full article

Automated container terminals can achieve precise matching of equipment and space, thus forming the foundation for the terminals’ efficient operation. However, the increase in container volume requires the construction of more ACTs. Existing studies lack dynamic assessment of the deep coupling between the P-shaped layout and the terminal’s system performance verification under peak operating conditions. To solve these problems, this paper aims to evaluate the system performance of the process layout in the application of ACTs through simulation methods. We have identified the differences in indicators among various schemes, thereby providing decision support for the construction of the port. In this paper, a simulation method for the configuration based on a P-shaped process layout is proposed at ACTs. The port system is constructed as a discrete event simulation model consisting of five core modules. Then two P-shaped process layout schemes and one mixed process layout scheme are proposed and the terminal models are established, respectively. Finally, by conducting numerous simulation experiments under different layout schemes, the influence of traffic organization on the efficiency of the terminal system was analyzed. The results demonstrate that on the premise of the maturity of the mixed-traffic technology at the terminal, when the proportion of cross-berth operations is low, the system efficiency of the mixed layout scheme is the highest. This article takes a new type of P-shaped process layout as the research object, reveals the correlation between its traffic organization characteristics and system performance through a customized simulation method. It provides a new theoretical perspective and quantitative tool for the optimization of automated terminal layouts. Full article

Background: Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) is a putative biomarker for neuropsychiatric disorders, including major depressive disorder (MDD). Methods: Here, we show that rCBF can be predicted from resting-state functional MRI (rsfMRI) at the voxel level while correcting for partial volume averaging (PVA) artifacts. Cortical patterns of MDD-related CBF differences decoded from rsfMRI using a PVA-corrected approach showed excellent agreement with CBF measured using single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and arterial spin labeling (ASL). A support vector machine algorithm was trained to decode cortical voxel-wise CBF from temporal and power-spectral features of voxel-level rsfMRI time series while accounting for PVA. Three datasets, Amish Connectome Project (N = 300; 179 M/121 F, both rsfMRI and ASL data), UK Biobank (N = 8396; 3097 M/5319 F, rsfMRI data), and Amen Clinics Inc. datasets (N = 372: N = 183 M/189 F, SPECT data), were used. Results: PVA-corrected CBF values predicted from rsfMRI showed significant correlation with the whole-brain (r = 0.54, p = 2 × 10⁻⁵) and 31 out of 34 regional (r = 0.33 to 0.59, p < 1.1 × 10⁻³) rCBF measures from 3D ASL. PVA-corrected rCBF values showed significant regional deficits in the UKBB MDD group (Cohen’s d = −0.30 to −0.56, p < 10⁻²⁸), with the strongest effect sizes observed in the frontal and cingulate areas. The regional deficit pattern of MDD-related hypoperfusion showed excellent agreement with CBF deficits observed in the SPECT data (r = 0.74, p = 4.9 × 10⁻⁷). Consistent with previous findings, this new method suggests that perfusion signals can be predicted using voxel-wise rsfMRI signals. Conclusions: CBF values computed from widely available rsfMRI can be used to study the impact of neuropsychiatric disorders such as MDD on cerebral neurophysiology. Full article

Germplasm resources embody the genetic diversity of plants and form the foundation for breeding and the ongoing improvement of elite cultivars. The establishment of germplasm banks, along with their systematic evaluation, constitutes a critical step toward the conservation, sustainable use, and innovative utilization of these resources. Liriodendron, a rare and endangered tree genus with species distributed in both East Asia and North America, holds considerable ecological, ornamental, and economic significance. However, a standardized evaluation system for Liriodendron germplasm remains unavailable. In this study, 297 Liriodendron germplasm accessions were comprehensively evaluated using 34 phenotypic traits and whole-genome resequencing data. Substantial variation was observed in most phenotypic traits, with significant correlations identified among several characteristics. Cluster analysis based on phenotypic data grouped the accessions into three distinct clusters, each exhibiting unique distribution patterns. This classification was further supported by principal component analysis (PCA), which effectively captured the underlying variation among accessions. These phenotypic groupings demonstrated high consistency with subsequent population structure analysis based on SNP markers (K = 3). Notably, several key traits exhibited significant divergence (p < 0.05) among distinct genetic clusters, thereby validating the coordinated association between phenotypic variation and molecular markers. Genetic diversity and population structure were assessed using 4204 high-quality single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers obtained through stringent filtering. The results indicated that the Liriodendron sino-americanum displayed the highest genetic diversity, with an expected heterozygosity (He) of 0.18 and a polymorphic information content (PIC) of 0.14. In addition, both hierarchical clustering and PCA revealed clear population differentiation among the accessions. Association analysis between three phenotypic traits (DBH, annual height increment, and branch number) and SNPs identified 25 highly significant SNP loci (p < 0.01). Of particular interest, the branch number-associated locus SNP_17_69375264 (p = 1.03 × 10⁻⁵) demonstrated the strongest association, highlighting distinct genetic regulation patterns among different growth traits. A minimal set of 13 core SNP markers was subsequently used to construct unique DNA fingerprints for all 297 accessions. In conclusion, this study systematically characterized phenotypic traits in Liriodendron, identified high-quality and core SNPs, and established correlations between key phenotypic and molecular markers. These achievements enabled differential analysis and genetic diversity assessment of Liriodendron germplasm, along with the construction of DNA fingerprint profiles. The results provide crucial theoretical basis and technical support for germplasm conservation, accurate identification, and utilization of Liriodendron resources, while offering significant practical value for variety selection, reproduction and commercial applications of this species.

Background and Objectives: Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) substantially increases cardiovascular risk; beyond the well-recognized left-ventricular involvement in diabetic cardiomyopathy, emerging data indicate subclinical right-ventricular (RV) dysfunction may also be present. This study aimed to evaluate whether speckle-tracking echocardiography identifies subclinical right-ventricular systolic dysfunction in type 2 diabetes, despite normal conventional indices and preserved global systolic function. Materials and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional, single-center study in accordance with STROBE recommendations, enrolling 77 participants, 36 adults with T2DM, and 41 non-diabetic controls, between December 2024 and July 2025. All participants underwent comprehensive transthoracic echocardiography, including conventional parameters (tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), tricuspid annular systolic velocity (TV S’), right ventricular fractional area change (RVFAC)) and deformation imaging (right ventricular global longitudinal strain (RV GLS), right ventricular free wall longitudinal strain (RVFWS)) using speckle-tracking echocardiography. Biochemical and clinical data, including glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), were recorded. Correlation and ROC curve analyses were performed to explore associations and predictive value. Results: The mean age was comparable between the two groups (62.08 ± 9.54 years vs. 60.22 ± 13.39 years; p = 0.480). While conventional RV parameters did not differ significantly between groups, diabetic patients had significantly lower RV GLS (−13.86 ± 6.07% vs. −18.59 ± 2.27%, p < 0.001) and RVFWS (−15.64 ± 4.30% vs. −19.03 ± 3.53%, p < 0.001). HbA1c levels correlated positively with RV strain impairment (RVFWS r = 0.41, p < 0.001). Both RV GLS and RVFWS were independent predictors of RV dysfunction in logistic regression analysis. ROC analysis showed good diagnostic performance for RV GLS, AUC = 0.84 with an optimal cut-off −17.2% (sensitivity 86.1% and specificity 80.5%) and RVFWS, AUC = 0.76 with cut-off −17.6% (sensitivity 77.8; specificity 80.5%) in identifying early myocardial involvement. Conclusions: RV systolic dysfunction may occur early in T2DM, even when traditional echocardiographic indices remain within normal limits. Speckle-tracking echocardiography, particularly RV GLS and RVFWS, offers sensitive detection of subclinical myocardial impairment, reinforcing its value in early cardiovascular risk stratification among diabetic patients.

Negative air ions (NAI) represent an important ecological value indicator for green tree species. Flow of sap is a crucial indicator for water utilization and physiological state of trees. Although there have been some advancements in studies on the correlation between the release of NAI by plants and sap flow in recent years, it is still unclear how the release of NAI by plants changes during drought stress and recovery processes, as well as the coupling effect between the release of NAI by plants and sap flow under drought stress. In this context, four typical green tree species, Robinia pseudoacacia, Quercus variabilis, Pinus tabulaeformis, and Platycladus orientalis, were selected as experimental materials. A drought stress and recovery control experiment was conducted based on OTC. The dynamic data of negative air ion concentration (NAIC) and sap flow rate during the process of drought stress and recovery were monitored to clarify the characteristics and correlations of NAI and sap flow changes in the experimental tree species under drought stress and recovery. The main research results are as follows: (1) At the end of the drought period, the NAI and sap flow in the drought treatment group significantly decreased (p < 0.01), compared with the control group (CK), and the reduction rate of sap flow (77.73 ± 4.96%) for each tree species was higher than that of NAI (47.78% ± 4.96%). (2) At 1 day after rehydration, the recovery amplitudes of NAI and sap flow for all tree species were the greatest; at 7 days after rehydration, the NAI and sap flow of the drought treatment group recovered to the levels of the control group (p > 0.05). (3) During different stages of drought rehydration, the response degree of NAI to sap flow varied. The study found that in the drought-rehydration stage, the correlation between the NAI released by each tree species and sap flow was the lowest at the drought endpoint. In conclusion, this research clarifies the changing patterns of plant NAI release and sap flow during drought-rehydration, as well as the response changes of NAI to sap flow. It provides a theoretical basis for selecting drought-tolerant tree species in arid regions. Full article

Soil desertification control is a global challenge, and the barrenness of sandy soil limits the growth of plants. To enhance the vegetation growth capacity of sandy soils, the preparation of soil amendments and the experiment of improving desertified soil were conducted. The soil amendment is prepared by mixing polyacrylamide (2.7%), biochar (16.2%), sodium bentonite (16.2%), straw fibers (5.4%), corn straw (2.7%), sheep manure organic fertilizer (54.1%), and composite microbial agents (2.7%). The laboratory experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of varying rates (0, 1.5%, 3%, 4.5%, 6%) of composite soil amendments on the properties of sandy soil and the Lolium perenne L. with a growth period of 30–60 days. The results indicated that the application of composite amendments at different rates maintained the soil pH between 7.0 and 7.5, increased the electrical conductivity, and significantly improved the soil moisture content, soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN), and total phosphorus contents. Under the condition of 3% amendment, the soil TN content increased from 0.74 to 1.83 g·kg⁻¹. The composite amendments remarkably promoted L. perenne growth, as evidenced by increased plant height, dry weight, and nitrogen and phosphorus nutrient content, while the SOC content increased by 1–4 times. The application of composite amendments, prepared by mixing materials such as biochar, organic fertilizer, crop straw, microbial agents, bentonite, and water-retaining agents, enhanced the physicochemical properties of sandy soil and promoted L. perenne growth, and 3% was the most suitable application rate. These findings are expected to advance desertification-controlling technologies and enhance soil carbon sequestration capacity. Full article

Gastrodiae Rhizoma (tianma, TM), a traditional medicine that has food and medicine homology, faces controversy over retaining its epidermis (tianma pi, TP) during processing due to unclear phytochemical value. This study presents the first integrated approach combining GC–IMS, UHPLC–MS, and Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) aging models to compare TP with the tuber core (tianma xin, TX). The results include the following: (1) A total of forty-seven volatile compounds were identified by GC–IMS, including 12 key aroma substances via relative odor activity value (ROAV ≥ 1), of which seven ((Z)-4-heptenal, β-citronellol, hexanal, 1-pentanol, 1-octen-3-one, 2-methylpropanol, and 2-butanone) were enriched in TP. (2) Non-targeted metabolomics revealed 1025 metabolites via UHPLC–MS, highlighting phenylpropanoid biosynthesis as the primary differential pathway (p < 0.05). Phenylpropanoids and polyketides exhibited predominant enrichment in TP (|log2FC| > 2, VIP > 1, p < 0.01). (3) In C. elegans models, TP outperformed TX in pharyngeal pumping (4.16%, p < 0.05), while both extended stress-resistant lifespan (p < 0.01). In conclusion, TP plays an essential role in establishing the characteristic odor profile of TM and retaining bioactive components, particularly phenylpropanoids. Preserving TP during processing optimally maintains the distinctive aroma profile and pharmacological value of TM, which provides valuable guidance for industrial utilization. Full article
