Integration of fluidic channels and total internal reflection excitation with supercritical angle fluorescence detection [PDF]
In many diagnostic applications, there is a growing demand for small cost effective portable devices that enable fast on-site analysis. For this target, we are developing an integrated approach of a previously reported surface-sensitive measurement ...

In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

The Role of Calcitonin Gene‐Related Peptide in High‐Altitude Headache: A Prospective Field Study
ABSTRACT Objective High‐altitude headache (HAH) is a common neurological condition associated with rapid ascent to high altitude. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying HAH remain incompletely understood. Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide implicated in migraine pathophysiology, may play a key role in the pathophysiology of ...

Silicon Waveguide Optical Isolator with Directly Bonded Magneto-Optical Garnet
Silicon waveguide optical isolators were fabricated by direct bonding of magneto-optical (MO) garnet. The technique allowed efficient MO phase shift owing to the use of single-crystalline garnet and negligibly thin interlayer on the silicon core layer. A

The use of liquid crystal adaptive optics devices in astronomy [PDF]
Images obtained from large astronomical telescopes are distorted and blurred by the effects of the atmosphere. In order to compensate for this, an adaptive optics system can be incorporated downstream from the telescope focus.

Added Prognostic Value of EEG Reactivity in Comatose Patients Following Cardiac Arrest
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the added prognostic value of EEG reactivity for favorable outcome compared with background analysis during and after targeted temperature management (TTM). Methods Prospective observational cohort study of comatose post–cardiac arrest patients admitted to a single academic center between 2017 and 2022, all undergoing ...

Mid‐Infrared Optoelectronic Waveguide Devices with 2D Materials
Mid‐infrared (Mid‐IR) integrated optics has tremendous applications in spectroscopic sensing, imaging, and ranging. Compared with visible light and near‐IR wavelengths, the study of mid‐IR photonic integrated devices is limited due to the need for more ...

Enhanced microwave-atom coupling via quadrupole transition-dressed Rydberg atoms
The power broadening of a coupling laser can be converted into two-photon detuning by electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT), resulting in a residual Doppler effect.

Resonant Graphene-Based Tunable Optical Delay Line
The design of a new graphene-based continuously tunable optical delay line formed by two vertically stacked microring resonators coupled to a straight waveguide is proposed. High values of delay time (τg = 360 ps) and a wide tuning range (Δ&

A Two‐Stage Questionnaire and Actigraphy Screening for iRBD in a Multicenter Retrospective Cohort
ABSTRACT Objective Isolated rapid‐eye‐movement sleep behavior disorder is a prodromal marker of synucleinopathies. However, most cases remain undiagnosed due to the insufficient predictive value of questionnaires and limited access to confirmatory video‐polysomnography. We assessed a two‐stage screening strategy combining a brief questionnaire on rapid‐
