Engineering In Vitro Models of Skeletal Muscle With Neuromuscular Junctions Using Hierarchical Micro‐Nano Biomaterials: Cooperative Effect of Adhesion Ligand Nanoclustering and Surface Anisotropy

Small, EarlyView.
This study investigates the cooperative effects of adhesive ligand distribution, density, and biomaterial morphology for innervated skeletal muscle tissue engineering. Ligand nanoclusters were created in aligned micropatterns by electrospinning of a RAFT‐synthesized polymer with controlled ligand presentation.

Optically Driven AuCu Alloying in Single Nanoparticles Revealed by In Situ TEM

Small, EarlyView.
In situ transmission electron microscopy with picosecond laser illumination reveals how single gold nanorods reversibly take up and release copper from their carbon support, forming homogeneous AuCu alloys. Laser fluence and illumination time serve as control parameters, making composition dynamically tunable, and with it the functional properties it ...

A 4D‐STEM Tomographic Framework Assisted by Object Tracking for Nanoparticle Structure Determination

Small Methods, EarlyView.
4D‐STEM tomography is used as a new methodology for 3D ED data acquisition to solve structures. Object tracking and segmentation methods are applied for the extraction of 3D ED datasets from regions of interest in a 4D‐STEM tomogram. Owing to its nanometric resolution, 4D‐STEM tomography can tackle challenging samples being too small for 3D ED, have ...

Tailored Hardening and Isothermal Bainitizing of Additively Manufactured Nitrogen‐Enhanced Martensitic Chromium Steel

steel research international, EarlyView.
Tailored heat treatments transform additively manufactured high‐nitrogen martensitic Cr steel from austenitic as‐built condition to high‐hardness states. Isothermal bainitizing at 250°C generates an ultrafine nanostructure and achieves higher hardness than conventional hardening and tempering, highlighting a promising postprocessing route for laser ...

Facility Type Predicts Treatment Regimen for Human Papillomavirus Positive Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Treatment landscapes are changing for HPV+ oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) without compromising oncologic outcomes. We aim to analyze treatment trends of HPV+ OPC at academic (ACs) and nonacademic centers (NACs). Methods The National Cancer Database was queried, and multinomial logistic regression was used to predict treatment trends ...

Comparative Analysis of Machine Learning Algorithms for Automated Hydrophobicity Classification in Composite Insulators Using Contour Features

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a comparative analysis of six machine learning algorithms for automated hydrophobicity classification in composite insulators using contour‐based image features. A robust image‐processing pipeline was developed to extract statistical features from water droplet patterns on insulator surfaces, enabling objective ...

Species Distribution Models Reveal the Resilience of Protected Areas for Conserving an Endemic Amazonian Canid

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the impacts of climate change on the distribution of the Amazon‐endemic canid Atelocynus microtis, highlighting projected habitat loss under future scenarios (SSP2–4.5 and SSP5–8.5). Despite substantial reductions in suitable habitat, a significant proportion remains within Protected Areas, emphasizing their critical

Conservation Priority Areas for Endemic and Threatened Bird Species in the Brazilian Amazon Under Climate Change: A Multifaceted Approach

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Climate change is projected to substantially erode taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional diversity of endemic and threatened birds in the Brazilian Amazon by 2100. Integrating these dimensions with climate refugia revealed priority conservation areas, particularly in the eastern Amazon, highlighting where conservation efforts can best safeguard ...

Regional growth kinetics of geographic atrophy in age‐related macular degeneration with and without fovea‐sparing

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Fovea‐sparing geographic atrophy (GA) patients retain near‐normal central vision. To better understand GA progression in relation to the fovea, we performed a semi‐automated image analysis of regional atrophy growth in a long‐term GA natural‐history cohort. Methods Prospective‐observational, single‐centre‐study (02/2013–07/2025) at the
