A Comprehensive Investigation of the Two-Phonon Characteristics of Heat Conduction in Superlattices

Crystals
The Anderson localization of phonons in disordered superlattices has been proposed as a route to suppress thermal conductivity beyond the limits imposed by conventional scattering mechanisms.

Randomized, Open-Label Phase 3 Study Evaluating Immunogenicity, Safety, and Reactogenicity of RSVPreF3 OA Coadministered with FLU-QIV-HD in Adults Aged ≥ 65

Infectious Diseases and Therapy
Introduction Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza pose major disease burdens in older adults due to an aging immune system and comorbidities; seasonal overlap exists between these infections.

Impact of Radiation Therapy on Physical and Psychosocial Health of Adolescents and Young Adults: A Joint Report From the Children's Oncology Group AYA and Radiation Oncology Committees

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Comment on ‘Evidence of slow-light effects from rotary drag of structured beams’

New Journal of Physics, 2014
The paper Wisniewski-Barker E et al (2013 New J. Phys. 15 083020) is intended to distinguish experimentally between two mechanisms of pulse delay in ruby and to provide evidence in favor of the slow-light model.

Group velocity of the probe light in semiconductor–metal molecules [PDF]

, 2012
The group velocity of light is investigated in a hybrid nanostructure comprised of semiconductor quantum dot (SQD) and metal nanoparticle (MNP). In the presence of MNP, the hybrid absorption of the system can be eliminated and forms a broad transparency ...

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Multifrequency Bessel beams with adjustable group velocity and longitudinal acceleration in free space

New Journal of Physics, 2022
The group velocity of an optical beam in free space is usually considered to be equal to the speed of light in vacuum. However, it has been recently realized that, by structuring the beam’s angular and temporal spectra, one can achieve well pronounced ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.
