Markov Blanket Density and Free Energy Minimization

open access: yesCoRR
This paper presents a continuous, information-theoretic extension of the Free Energy Principle through the concept of Markov blanket density, i.e., a scalar field that quantifies the degree of conditional independence between internal and external states at each point in space (ranging from 0 for full coupling to 1 for full separation). It demonstrates

Tracheal chambers as a key innovation for high‐frequency emission in bat echolocation

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Key innovations are pivotal for biodiversity and facilitating evolutionary success, enabling organisms' adaptation to various ecological niches through the diversification of phenotypic traits. In mammals, notable adaptations include evolving hypsodonty for grazing on grasses and, for bats, evolving echolocation and wing acquisition.

Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

A Rare RIPK3 Variant Enhances Necroptosis and Promotes Inflammation in a Still Disease–Like Autoinflammatory Syndrome

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Still disease represents a prototypical polygenic systemic autoinflammatory disease, characterized by recurrent systemic inflammation and dysregulation of innate immunity. Despite extensive clinical characterization, familial clustering Still disease remains unreported.

Cost‐utility analysis of nusinersen–risdiplam switch in patients with spinal muscular atrophy in Croatia: A discrete event simulation model

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Introduction In recent years, the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a rare disease, has significantly progressed, improving patients' survival and overall quality of life. However, current SMA treatments are expensive, and some (nusinersen) are very inconvenient for patients.

Efficacy, safety and cost‐effectiveness of CAR‐T therapy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
CAR T‐cells demonstrate high efficacy in blood cancers, including ALL, MM and DLBCL. Innovations target solid tumours despite challenges such as antigen escape. Combination therapies enhance the delivery and infiltration of CAR T cells. Toxicity, cost and resistance remain major barriers to clinical use.

Quantitative prediction of intravenous drug interactions caused by cytochromes P450 inhibitors and inducers

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background Aims Pharmacokinetic interaction studies typically focus on oral administration, but intravenous (IV) administration bypasses intestinal degradation and hepatic first‐pass metabolism, leading to distinct drug–drug interaction (DDI) magnitude. This study aimed to develop a predictive model for DDIs involving IV‐administered drugs.

Causality-driven feature selection and domain adaptation for enhancing chemical foundation models in downstream tasks

open access: yesMachine Learning: Science and Technology
Recent advancements in large foundation models have revealed impressive capabilities in mastering complex chemical language representations. These models undergo a task-agnostic learning phase, characterized by pre-training on extensive unlabeled corpora
