Almost Public Quantum Coins [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 In a quantum money scheme, a bank can issue money that users cannot counterfeit. Similar to bills of paper money, most quantum money schemes assign a unique serial number to each money state, thus potentially compromising the privacy of the users of quantum money.

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.Rigid, lightweight foams for thermal insulation are produced using a universal and scalable method: results are compared between pilot plant trials, four wood residues, pulp, ocean water, and a biosurfactant. Two guidelines for using this method are suggested: use a distribution of rigid wood microparticle sizes and shapes and match the average ...

arXiv, 2008 This review is about the convenience, the benefits, as well as the destructive capacities of money. It deals with various aspects of money creation, with its value, and its appropriation. All sorts of money tend to get corrupted by eventually creating too much of them. In the long run, this renders money worthless and deprives people holding it.

On the Relentless Pursuit of an Oral Insulin Delivery System: How Far is Too Far?
Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.Injectable insulin preparations have far outpaced oral ones by virtue of adequate bioavailability and are driven by innovations, including insulin pumps, real‐time blood glucose monitoring, and artificial intelligence. In contrast, oral insulin delivery systems, including nanomedicines, continue to struggle and lag due to varied reasons.

An Attempt at Analyzing the Information Nature of Money [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Money was invented to address the difficulty in the double coincidence of wants between the supply and demand when people exchanged their goods and services. There are two information states in society: one is the initial state that people have goods and services due to division of labor; the other is the final state that people have different goods ...

Neural Patterns of Social Pain in the Brain‐Wide Representations Across Social Contexts
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Empathy arises from both physiological and social pain, yet their shared and context‐specific neural mechanisms remain unclear. Combining fMRI and multivariate pattern analysis, this study decodes overlapping empathy networks and distinct representations for social exclusion versus separation.

Cost‐effectiveness of second‐line therapies in adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia
American Journal of Hematology, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 122-130, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Major options for second‐line therapy in adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) include splenectomy, rituximab, and thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TRAs). The American Society of Hematology guidelines recommend rituximab over splenectomy, TRAs over rituximab, and splenectomy or TRAs while noting a lack of evidence on the cost ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study presents a novel portable grasp‐assist glove, weighing only 47 g. The glove integrates smart adhesive pads and a hands‐free control interface based on IMU, designed to aid rheumatic patients with impaired hand function. The system enables switchable adhesion with independent control and detection of user release intent.
