Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Transitioning from pediatric to adult care is a high‐risk period for individuals with sickle cell disease (SCD). An initial observation at one academic medical center suggested a sex‐based disparity in clinic populations, prompting a national investigation.

Reinforcement learning for active matter
Biophysics ReviewsActive matter refers to systems composed of self-propelled entities that consume energy to produce motion, exhibiting complex non-equilibrium dynamics that challenge traditional models. With the rapid advancements in machine learning, reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a promising framework for addressing the complexities of active matter. This

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is a common condition among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) and is the leading cause of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in this population. Growing evidence suggests that social determinants of health (SDOH) influence menstrual bleeding patterns, access to care, and treatment. However, no studies have

Defect interactions in the non-reciprocal Cahn–Hilliard model
New Journal of PhysicsWe present a computational study of the pairwise interactions between defects in the recently introduced non-reciprocal Cahn–Hilliard model. The evolution of a defect pair exhibits dependence upon their corresponding topological charges, initial ...

The role of fluid flow in the dynamics of active nematic defects
New Journal of Physics, 2021 We adapt the Halperin–Mazenko formalism to analyze two-dimensional active nematics coupled to a generic fluid flow. The governing hydrodynamic equations lead to evolution laws for nematic topological defects and their corresponding density fields.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Catalytic enzymes are active matter
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018 Significance Catalysis and mobility of reactants in fluid are normally thought to be decoupled. Violating this classical paradigm, this paper presents the catalyst laws of motion. Comparing experimental data to the theory presented here, we conclude that part of the free energy released by chemical reaction is ...
