Mitigating the seductive details effect by topic and irrelevance signals
Abstract Background Seductive details (interesting digressions in learning materials) are often integrated into learning units to make them more appealing to learners. However, studies indicate that this tends to overload students cognitively and impairs their learning performance. Aims The present study investigated whether these negative consequences

Clathrins Are Involved in the Endocytosis of Host Cytosol in the Malaria Parasite
This study characterized clathrin function in hemoglobin uptake from host red blood cells via the malaria parasite's specific endocytosis machinery, cytostome. Clathrin heavy chain, clathrin light chain, and AP‐1 γ subunit were found associated with certain proteins known to be involved in cytostome function, and they were localized at the collars of ...

Abstract In May 2024, extraordinary solar activity triggered a powerful solar storm, impacting Earth and producing the extreme geomagnetic storm of 10‐11 May, the most intense since 2003. This had significant effects on the magnetosphere, leading to the creation of a new long‐lasting component of relativistic electrons and to flux changes in the South ...

Observations of Fine‐Scale Structures During the Pause Period of Positive Leader Discharge
Abstract In positive leader discharge, the channel evolution process during pause period significantly impacts the subsequent discharge behavior accompanied by sudden elongation and intense reillumination of the discharge channel. The discontinuous discharge phenomenon is widely observed in the intermittent positive leader of natural lightning and ...

What's new? Cervical cancer screening is challenging in postmenopausal women, partly due to physiological changes that reduce the sensitivity of cytology and colposcopy. This study evaluated the diagnostic performance of combined PAX1 and JAM3 gene methylation testing in a large cohort of postmenopausal women undergoing colposcopy. Compared to cytology

A general model for analysis of linear and hyperbolic enzyme inhibition mechanisms
We developed a general enzyme kinetic model that integrates these six basic inhibition mechanism onto a single one. From this model, we deduced a general enzyme kinetic equation that through modulation of simple parameters, γ (the relative inhibitor affinity for two binding sites) and β (the reactivity of the enzyme–substrate–inhibitor complex), is ...

This work shows, for the first time, that the stereocilia membrane in cochlear hair cells is dynamically regulated by the mechanotransduction channel to impact the membrane mechanical properties. This work provides direct evidence that the opening and closing associated with the MET channel is regulating the membrane viscosity suggesting that the MET ...

Designing Memristive Materials for Artificial Dynamic Intelligence
Key characteristics required of memristors for realizing next‐generation computing, along with modeling approaches employed to analyze their underlying mechanisms. These modeling techniques span from the atomic scale to the array scale and cover temporal scales ranging from picoseconds to microseconds. Hardware architectures inspired by neural networks

Three-dimensional time domain model of lightning including corona effects [PDF]
A new 3-D lightning model that incorporates the effect of corona is described for the first time. The new model is based on a Thin Wire Time Domain Lightning (TWTDL) Code developed previously.
