Amorphous Hydrogenated Silicon Carbide Interlayers: Chemical, Optical, and Tribological Behavior for Improving Adhesion of Carbon‐Based Films to Ferrous Alloy

open access: yesSurface and Interface Analysis, Volume 58, Issue 4, Page 246-261, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Diamond‐like carbon thin films have been gaining attention in the last years due to their unique properties, such as low friction coefficient and high wear resistance. However, the lack of adhesion between DLC coatings and ferrous alloys complicates their wider industrial application.

Patient‐reported outcomes, postoperative pain and pain relief after day‐case surgery (POPPY): baseline data from day surgery practice in the UK

open access: yesAnaesthesia, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 477-488, April 2026.
Summary Introduction Most patients undergoing elective surgery in the UK are discharged from hospital on the same day. Despite this, there is a lack of UK patient‐centred outcome measures relating to quality of recovery, pain and analgesic use. The POPPY study was a UK‐wide prospective, observational study measuring short‐ and longer‐term patient ...

Toward an understanding of the nonlinear nature of atmospheric photochemistry: Origin of the complicated dynamic behaviour of the mesospheric photochemical system [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2000
The methods of nonlinear dynamics are used to reveal the origin of complicated dynamic behaviour (CDB) of a dynamic model of the mesospheric photochemical system (PCS) perturbed by diurnal variations in photolysis rates.

Janus field theories from multiple M2 branes

open access: yes, 2008
Based on the recent proposal of N=8 superconformal gauge theories of the multiple M2 branes, we derive (2+1)-dimensional supersymmetric Janus field theories with a space-time dependent coupling constant.

Patient‐reported outcomes, postoperative pain and pain relief after day‐case surgery (POPPY): chronic post‐surgical pain prevalence and associations*

open access: yesAnaesthesia, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 489-499, April 2026.
Summary Introduction Day‐case surgical activity is increasing in the UK yet there is a lack of data on the prevalence of chronic post‐surgical pain in this population. This study uses data from the POPPY study to estimate the prevalence of chronic post‐surgical pain after day‐case surgery, its relationship with quality of life and also explores ...

Sleep and Rhythmic Profile After Pineal Gland Removal in Humans

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Melatonin, a hormone produced by the pineal gland, is classically described as a central circadian modulator. However, the impact of its absence on circadian rhythmicity in humans remains poorly understood. Pinealectomised patients, in whom melatonin secretion is chronically suppressed, represent a valuable clinical model to investigate the ...

Adaptation to dietary conditions by trehalose metabolism in Drosophila

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Trehalose is a non-reducing disaccharide that serves as the main sugar component of haemolymph in insects. Trehalose hydrolysis enzyme, called trehalase, is highly conserved from bacteria to humans. However, our understanding of the physiological role of
