Concurrent fibrinogen Aα-chain amyloidosis and AA amyloidosis in a Humboldt penguin (Spheniscus humboldti)

Abstract Amyloidosis is a disease characterized by the deposition of abnormally folded proteins as amyloid fibrils in tissues and occurs in various mammals and birds. In some cases, amyloids derived from two different precursor proteins may coexist in the same individual, a condi...

Climate warming amplifies coastal hypoxia response to extreme river discharge

Extreme hydrological events are critical drivers of coastal hypoxia, yet their impacts remain poorly constrained under future warming. Coastal oxygen depletion occurs when physical oxygen supply fails to offset biological oxygen demand, with stratification, nutrient enrichment, a...

Machine Learning and Blockchain in Peer-to-Peer Energy Trading: A Cross-Layer Review of Functional Roles, Market Operation, Trust, and Privacy

Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading combines local energy resources, market coordination, data-driven decisions, and transaction management. This review examines how machine learning (ML) and blockchain are used across these functions and separates market and ledger processes from...

Safety design approach for sodium-cooled fast reactor coupled to thermal energy storage system with sodium-molten salt heat exchanger improving heat transfer performance

A sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR) can make flexibility with variable renewable energy by coupling a thermal energy storage (TES) system with molten salt. One of technical issues for the SFR coupled with TES is a heat exchanger (HX) between sodium and molten salt. In particular,...

Whole-body depth camera gait analysis with artificial intelligence for recognizing anterior cruciate ligament deficient gait compared with healthcare professionals

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury can be missed during the initial evaluation because compensatory strategies may conceal subtle gait abnormalities. We evaluated the accuracy with which healthcare professionals recognize ACL deficient gait from brief visual observation and...

Stringy Constraints on Modular Flavor Models

Abstract We investigate stringy constraints on moduli spaces in modular flavor models by analyzing moduli-dependent threshold corrections in heterotic string vacua. While moduli play a crucial role in determining the flavor structure of fermions predicted by modular flavor models...

Cerebral Oxygen Saturation Responsiveness During Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation After Prolonged Ventricular Fibrillation: A Porcine Study

Background/Objectives: Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) enables the monitoring of cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (ScO2) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). In this study, we aimed to investigate ScO2 responsiveness during CPR initiated 14 min following the induction o...
