Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

Comparison of Cranial Ultrasound and Amplitude‐Integrated Electroencephalography in Predicting Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in Neonates With Hypoxic–Ischemic Encephalopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
In neonates with hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes (NDO) remain common. Amplitude‐integrated EEG demonstrates strong prognostic value for early prediction, while cranial ultrasound (cUS) provides complementary but less definitive information.

How Does Entrepreneurs' Grit Predict Effectual Decision‐Making?

Strategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Entrepreneurs' grit is one of the most relevant predictors of new venture performance. We investigate whether the “stubbornness” of entrepreneurs' grit negatively relates to their effectual decision‐making abilities. Understanding the underlying mechanisms is relevant because the effectual decision‐making abilities of founders are crucial for ...

Diffraction‐Free Natural Optical Skyrmions and Their Subwavelength Confinement Around Vortices

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diffraction causes waves to spread out as they propagate freely. The tighter the lateral confinement, the faster the spreading. Past research on how to suppress diffraction has been based on wave engineering and has led so far to idealized waves that, in real settings, eventually diffract.
