The model by D. Hu and D. Cai [Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 138701 (2013). doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.111.138701] describes the self-organization of vascular networks for transport of fluids from source to sinks. Diameters, and thereby, conductances, of vessel segments evolve so as to minimize a cost functional E . The cost is the trade-off between the power required for pumping the fluid and the energy con
BACKGROUND: An unhealthy diet is a major contributor to several noncommunicable diseases, including cardiovascular diseases (CVD), the leading cause of death worldwide. Additionally, our food system has significant impacts on the environment. The EAT-Lancet Commission has recommended a healthy diet that preserves global environmental resources.OBJECTIVE: This prospective study evaluated the associ
This chapter responds to the following question: what substantive positive obligations did the Court formulate in Verein KlimaSeniorinnen Schweiz under Article 8 ECHR that can actually guide the future conduct of States? To frame it even more specifically, what is the content of these positive obligations? More precisely, this content is clarified through the lens of the standard of causation. Cau
Design problems in aerospace engineering often require numerous evaluations of expensive-to-evaluate high-fidelity models, resulting in prohibitive computational costs. One way to address the computational cost is through building surrogates, such as deep neural networks (DNNs). However, DNNs may only be an effective surrogate when sufficient evaluations of the high-fidelity model are required suc
Over the past decade, the healthcare industries have been facing the issue of resource scarcity due to socio-political wars, the COVID-19 pandemic, the luxury lifestyles of people, and the prevalence of single-use medical devices. The circular economy (CE) can be vital in accommodating the evolving patient and provider demands. The CE defies the conventional take-make-dispose process and advocates
Objective: We investigated diagnostic utility of phosphorylated tau 217 and 181 (ptau217, ptau181), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), amyloid beta 42 and 40 (Aβ42, Aβ40), and neurofilament light (NfL) to distinguish biomarker-defined Alzheimer disease (AD) from non-AD conditions, in a heterogenous clinical cohort of younger people. Methods: Plasma biomarkers were analysed using ultrasensitiv
In this study, a combined workflow of computational methodologies is introduced to explore the transformative landscape of the ancient city of Savatra (Central Anatolia Region, Türkiye), which faces long-term risks stemming from natural and anthropogenic threats. Emphasis was placed on regional and local scale landscape analysis, employing aerial and ground-based remote-sensing techniques to unrav
Background: Compared to negative experiences and ill health, little attention has been paidto positive experiences connected to being transgender and gender diverse (TGD).Aim: The aim of the current study was to explore TGD people’s positive experiences in depth.Methods: In total, 33 TGD people were interviewed. Transcripts were analyzed using reflexivethematic analysis.Results: Results show that
The nonvolatile cryogenic memories can play an important role in realizing energy-efficient and scalable low-temperature electronics for quantum computing and future high-performance computing systems. In this article, we evaluate he cryogenic performance of HfOx-based resistive random access memory (RRAM) and demonstrate that the addition of extremely thin ∼0.5-nm AlOx barrier layers enables a h

ECHOES OF THE OIL SPILL OF 2019: ASSESSMENT OF THE PRESENCE OF PAH AND BTEX IN PRODUCTS FROM FISHING. The 2019 oil spill in Brazil caused widespread contamination in the Brazilian coast, posing risks to both animal and human health through seafood consumption. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate seafood samples from different locations impacted by the oil spill. For this purpose, 44 samples un
Metal-halide perovskites (MHPs) have gained substantial interest in the energy and optoelectronics field. MHPs in nanostructure forms, such as nanocrystals and nanowires (NWs), have further expanded the horizons for perovskite nanodevices in geometry and properties. A partial anion exchange within the nanostructure, creating axial heterojunctions, has significantly augmented the potential applicat
