Noncollinear kagome magnet driven by giant antisymmetric exchange

Kagome lattices host exotic phenomena such as quantum spin liquids, topological Weyl nodes, and flat bands. The kagome ferromagnet Co3Sn2S2 has been a focus of debate due to conflicting reports on its magnetic character. Here, using weakly perturbative probes—primarily neutron sc...

Integrated experimental and modeling study of air psychrometry and velocity effects on cooling pad performance

This study presents a combined experimental and modeling investigation of cellulose-based evaporative cooling pads, focusing on the synergistic effects of inlet air psychrometric conditions and air velocity on cooling performance. Unlike conventional studies that examine temperat...

Molecular basis of nick ligation in the nucleosome by DNA Ligase IIIα

Eukaryotic genomic DNA is packaged into chromatin through a fundamental repeating unit known as the nucleosome core particle. Within this chromatin context, genomic DNA is constantly exposed to endogenous and exogenous stress that result in the formation of DNA damage, which must...

Proprioception drives tension wood formation for autotropic straightening and postural control in trees

Postural control in plant shoots relies on gravi- and photo- tropisms, driven by angular sensing and actuated by differential growth or reaction wood formation (tension wood in dicots). Control theory and kinematical models predict that posture stabilization additionally requires...

Type-II-like ultrafast demagnetization behavior in NiCo2O4 thin films

Rare-earth-free ferrimagnetic oxides are emerging as attractive platforms for investigating ultrafast spin dynamics. Here, we study the photoinduced magnetization dynamics of epitaxial NiCo2O4 (NCO) thin films by the time-resolved magneto-optical Faraday effect using two independ...

Haplotype-phased assemblies of the two poplar rust fungi species: Melampsora larici-populina and Melampsora allii-populina

Dikaryotic rust fungi maintain two distinct haploid nuclei for most of their life cycle, making their large, repeat-rich genomes difficult to assemble and phase. Here we present haplotype-phased, near chromosome-scale genome assemblies for the poplar rust pathogens Melampsora lar...

Renormalization of a 1d quadratic Schrödinger model with additive noise

The study is devoted to the interpretation and well-posedness of the stochastic NLS model (ı∂t−Δ)u=|u|2+B˙,u0=0,t∈R,x∈T, where B˙ stands for a space-time fractional noise with index H=(H0,H1) in a subset of (0,1)2. We first establish that in the situation where 0<2H0+H1≤2, the eq...

LFD (v1.0): latent-compression-free generative diffusion with geological priors and geophysical regularization for implicit structural modeling

Abstract. Diffusion models provide a promising way to model the distribution of implicit structural models, potentially improving generalization across surveys. However, existing diffusion Transformer pipelines scale poorly to high-dimensional geophysical data because noise- or v...

Therapies for Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Liver‐Metabolic Syndrome: Reappraisal of Fibrates

ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH) frequently coexist and share overlapping pathophysiology, forming the proposed cardiovascular‐kidney‐liver‐metabolic...

Intraarterial Thrombolysis: Past, Present, Future

Suboptimal clinical outcomes are common after ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion despite current reperfusion treatment with intravenous thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy. Targeting residual distal arterial and microvascular occlusions with intraarterial thrombolys...

Current Use, Monitoring and Reversal of Neuromuscular Block in Pediatric Anesthesia and Intensive Care: A Web‐Based Cross‐Sectional ESAIC Survey

BACKGROUND: Neuromuscular blocking agents are recommended by the European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care (ESAIC) and European Society of Paediatric Anaesthesia (ESPA) for facilitating tracheal intubation in children. Despite these recommendations, real-world data o...

Longitudinal progression, metrics, age-dependence, and modifiers of ataxia severity in SCA27B: a multicentre study of 219 patients

Background Spinocerebellar Ataxia 27B (SCA27B) is a novel, frequent and likely treatable late-onset autosomal-dominant ataxia caused by GAA repeat-expansions in FGF14 . For understanding disease evolution and imminent trial planning, metrics of the most widely used clinical outco...

Influence of atomic vacancies on the electronic and mechanical properties of two-dimensional <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:msub> <mml:mi>AsBiSe</mml:mi> <mml:mn>3</mml:mn> </mml:msub> </mml:math> monolayers

Using first-principles calculations and ab initio molecular dynamics, we investigate the formation of atomic vacancies in the monolayer ${\mathrm{AsBiSe}}_{3}$ and its consecutive effect on electronic and mechanical properties. The calculated formation energies reveal that Se vac...

Cerebrospinal fluid cell-free DNA sequencing in pediatric CNS tumors: towards liquid molecular neuropathology

Pediatric central nervous system tumors remain a leading cause of cancer-related mortality in children, while their diagnosis, risk stratification, and therapeutic management increasingly depend on integrated molecular characterization. However, representative tumor tissue is oft...

Imperfect detection and sampling effort shape ground beetle (Carabidae) diversity indicators in large-scale monitoring

Soil biodiversity indicators are increasingly used to inform environmental assessment and policy, yet their robustness is often constrained by heterogeneous sampling designs and imperfect species detection. Surface-active arthropods, such as ground beetles (Carabidae), are widely...

The Challenge of Adapting a Spatial Accessibility Indicator Developed for Primary Care to the Hemodialysis Context

Background: Access to dialysis facilities greatly affects patients' quality of life and healthcare costs. Transportation alone represents 21% of dialysis-related expenses. Going beyond a simple focus on access, this study aimed to evaluate dialysis care accessibility in France by...

Functional Performance and Patient-Reported Goal Attainment with a Novel Microprocessor-Controlled Knee in Active Transfemoral Amputees: A Multicenter Randomized Crossover Trial

Background/Objectives: Lower-limb amputation significantly impacts autonomy and daily functioning. Microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knees (MPKs) improve mobility, safety, and quality of life compared with non-microprocessor prosthetic knees (nMPKs). Despite general benefits,...

Case report of transoral excision of a right buccal/jugal lipoma

Introduction: Lipomas are benign mesenchymal tumors that rarely occur in the oral cavity. Lesions arising in the jugal region may pose diagnostic and surgical challenges due to their anatomical location. We report a case of a jugal lipoma successfully managed through a transoral...
