Neuropeptide Y (NPY) intranasal delivery alleviates Machado–Joseph disease
Machado–Joseph disease (MJD) is the most common dominantly-inherited ataxia worldwide with no effective treatment to prevent, stop or alleviate its progression. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a neuroprotective agent widely expressed in the mammalian brain.

Background There are no evaluated family‐based mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) interventions for adolescents in Southwest Asia (known as the Middle East), and few whole‐family interventions in low‐ and middle‐income countries, despite consistent evidence for the impact of family support on mental health and well‐being. This study aims to

Reinforcement Learning for Jump‐Diffusions, With Financial Applications
ABSTRACT We study continuous‐time reinforcement learning (RL) for stochastic control in which system dynamics are governed by jump‐diffusion processes. We formulate an entropy‐regularized exploratory control problem with stochastic policies to capture the exploration–exploitation balance essential for RL.

De‐Coupled Water and Nitrogen Translocation From Subsoil to Canopy of Temperate Forest Trees
ABSTRACT Water and nitrogen (N) transport from soil to canopy play a central role in tree functioning, yet direct evidence for their timing and coupling in mature forests remains scarce. We report results from a paired dual‐isotope (2H, 15N) tracer experiment in a temperate forest, comparing water and nitrate uptake patterns across tree species ...

Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) remains a clinical challenge, as therapies modifying disease trajectory are lacking. Increasing evidence implicates gut microbiota dysbiosis in epilepsy pathophysiology, with short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) emerging as key microbial metabolites with neuroprotective and anti‐inflammatory properties.
