Octupole deformation in quasiparticle states of odd-mass and odd-odd nuclei

Abstract As a follow up of [Phys. Scr. 99 055305 (2024)], where we studied axial octupole shapes in two-quasiparticle states of even-even nuclei, we investigate this type of shapes in odd-mass and odd-odd well-deformed nuclei, using the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-BCS approach with selfc...

Co‐Ligand‐Induced Electronic Modulation Controls Substrate Adsorption and Selectivity in Biomass Electrooxidation

ABSTRACT The electrooxidation of 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5‐furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is often limited by competitive adsorption between HMF and surface‐bound hydroxyl species (OH ads ), which governs both activity and selectivity, yet independent control over these...

2D Covalent Organic Frameworks as Robust n‐Type Organic Mixed Ionic‐Electronic Conductors for Electrochemical Transistors

ABSTRACT Organic mixed ionic‐electronic conductors (OMIECs) with exclusive electrochemical modulation and coupling between ions and electrons have exhibited intriguing efficiencies in bioelectronics, logic circuits, and wearable devices. However, OMIECs are typically linear polym...

Uncovering scleromyositis: no myth, just missed

Purpose of review Scleromyositis (SM), the muscle-specific manifestation of scleroderma, is increasingly recognized as a distinct myositis subset, yet it remains poorly captured by existing classification criteria and absent from therapeutic guidelines. This review provides recen...

Porous and Permeable Crystalline Basement: Evidence for Large‐Scale Hydraulic Connectivity at Kivetty, Finland

Abstract Porosity and permeability in crystalline shield basement are commonly assumed to be low, yet some fault zones sustain fluid circulation over kilometer scales. Here we quantify multiscale fault‐zone connectivity at Kivetty, central Finland, by integrating legacy deep‐bore...

Severity of Reactions in Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Food Challenges: New Insights From the EuroPrevall Outpatient Clinic Study

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Oral food challenge, particularly double-blind placebo-controlled food challenge (DBPCFC), is the gold standard for diagnosis of food allergy, although safety concerns limit its widespread use. Objectives: To evaluate the severity of reactions during DB...

The Relationship Between Physical Fitness and Physical Literacy: Empirical Evidence Linking Two Physical Activity-Health Concepts

Research on promoting physical activity (PA) primarily revolves around two key concepts: physical fitness (PF), defined as a set of measurable physical capacities (strength, speed, endurance and coordination), and physical literacy (PL), a multidimensional construct encompassing...

Looking back over 20 years of research into ‘parkour and urban space’

Parkour is a lifestyle sport that originated in the Parisian suburbs in the 1990s. It has sparked research in various fields, with studies examining either the activity itself or using it as a stage to discuss broader or relatively distinct topics. As no systematic review of the...

Three‐Dimensional Optical and Computational Reconstruction of Colloidal Electrokinetic Flows via Multiplane Imaging and Multiscale Modeling

ABSTRACT Sorting, filtering, and controlling colloidal particles is crucial in many fields, ranging from chemistry to biology and physics. Dielectrophoresis (DEP) enables selective manipulation of colloids by non‐uniform AC electric fields, yet the associated three‐dimensional na...

Relationships between general practice residents’ level of reflection and their competencies development: results from a pilot cross-sectional study

Reflective practice is a cornerstone for developing professional competence. Despite its importance, the relationship between levels of reflection and competence remains underexplored in medical education. This association was described in trainee teachers. Along with initiating...

From water to land: evolution of tRNA gene repertoires in photosynthetic organisms

Abstract Photosynthetic eukaryotes have undergone evolutionary shifts from aquatic to terrestrial habitats, accompanied by changes in genome organization and gene regulation. Yet, the evolution of transfer RNA (tRNA) gene repertoires has received limited attention despite their c...

Beyond Weight Loss: A Comprehensive Review of Integrated Pharmacotherapy and Metabolic Bariatric Surgery in Endometrial Cancer Care

Backgroundand Objectives: Endometrial cancer ranks among the most prevalent gynecologic malignancies in high-income countries, with increasing incidence and mortality driven by the global obesity epidemic. Evidence suggests that women with early-stage disease face a greater risk...

HighlyTransparent Layer-by-Layer Nanoassembled MulticomponentFilms of TiO2 and Graphene for Increased PhotocatalyticPerformance

Abstract Here, we report novel highly transparent and photoactive multicomponent films for enhanced photocatalytic applications. Some films are based on intimately interfaced TiO2 nanoparticles and few-layer graphene (FLG) assembled through an environmentally friendly aqueous lay...

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...

Neutron elastic scattering at $$\varvec{30.8}$$ MeV on $$\varvec{^{\text {nat}}\textrm{Ce}}$$

Abstract Elastic scattering of fast neutrons at an incident energy of 30.8 MeV on a natural cerium target was measured during an experiment conducted at the Neutrons For Science facility at GANIL-SPIRAL2. This is the first measurement on cerium using incident neutron energy above...
