Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

A Grid Theorem for Strong Immersions of Walls
ABSTRACT We show that a graph contains a large wall as a strong immersion minor if and only if the graph does not admit a tree‐cut decomposition of small “width”, which is measured in terms of its adhesion and the path‐likeness of its torsos.

Ultrasound Neuromodulation (Low‐Intensity Focused Ultrasound) to Treat Knee Osteoarthritis Pain
Low‐intensity focused ultrasound is a non‐invasive neuromodulation technique that delivers mechanical forces to a deep location within the body through acoustic pressure waves without affecting tissue between the transducer and focal target. Preliminary studies involving healthy volunteers suggest focused ultrasound reversibly prevents action potential

Performance and return to sport outcomes following hip arthroscopy in National Hockey League players
Abstract Purpose Intra‐articular hip disorders, such as femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS), labral tears and chondral damage are common in ice hockey players, particularly in the National Hockey League (NHL). However, evidence on return‐to‐sport (RTS) rates and performance outcomes post‐hip arthroscopy remains limited.

Ultra‐thin, tunable bandpass filters are a pathway to realizing mid‐infrared spectrometers that are compact, low power, and performant. The authors elicit 141 nanometres of passband tunability in the mid‐infrared in silicon on sapphire zero‐contrast gratings by exploiting silicon's high thermo‐optic coefficient.
