Transient Cytoskeletal Anisotropy Encodes Short‐Term Mechanical Memory in Glioblastoma Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The same mechanical deformation can produce distinct cytoskeletal states depending on loading history. Experiments and constitutive modeling reveal that transient actin–vimentin anisotropy stores mechanical information and governs short‐term mechanical memory in glioblastoma cells.

Semiparametric outcome regression-based estimator of Mann–Whitney-type causal effect

BMC Medical Research Methodology
We introduce a novel semiparametric estimator for Mann–Whitney-type causal effects based on the cumulative probability model (CPM). CPMs are rank-based, invariant to monotone transformations of the outcome, and offer flexible outcome regression under ...

Electropolymerized Aptasensor for Femtogram‐Level Cytokine Detection

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electropolymerization of 3‐amino‐ʟ‐tyrosine creates ultrathin, smooth, and chemically robust pALT nanofilms with accessible carboxyl functionalities for direct aptamer immobilization. Integrated with fiber‐optic SPR and OECT platforms, these interfaces enable IL‐6 detection down to 100 fg mL−1 and provide a versatile route to bioelectronic sensing ...

The Penalty for Assuming that a Monotone Regression is Linear

The Annals of Statistics, 1987
For jointly distributed random variables (X,Y) having marginal distributions F and G with finite second moments and F continuous, the proportion of Var(Y) explained by linear regression is \([Corr(X,Y)]^ 2\) while the proportion explained by E(Y\(| X)\) can be arbitrarily near 1.

Cities, factories, and energy: How urbanization and industrialization shape renewable and fossil fuel use. Evidence from a developing economy

World Development Sustainability
As cities expand and industries grow, energy demand surges, but what fuels this transformation? Do urbanization and industrialization in developing economies accelerate a shift toward renewables, or do they deepen reliance on fossil fuels?

Textile‐Based Capacitive Pressure Sensors Enabled by Ultrasonic Spray‐Coated Carbon Black Electrodes and Electrostatic Flocking

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A 4‐layer Kevlar‐based composite is fabricated by combining ultrasonic spraying and electrostatic flocking. Carbon black dispersion is first deposited onto Kevlar fabric to create a conductive electrode. Nylon fibers are then electrostatically flocked onto the coated fabric, forming a dielectric layer.

Microscale 3D‐Printed Digital Strain Switches for Embedded Mechanical Computation

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Microscale 3D‐printed strain switches on flexible films convert deformation into native digital signals at geometry defined thresholds. A closed form model predicts switching from 3000 to 15 000 microstrain and is validated across 110 devices. Reliable ohmic closure and strain activated AND, OR, and XOR logic point toward low‐power mechanical ...

A Generalized Topology Approach to Trajectory Convergence in Nonautonomous Evolution Equations With Monotone Operators

Abstract and Applied Analysis
This paper investigates the application of β-open sets to the convergence analysis of nonautonomous evolution equations governed by maximal monotone operators in Hilbert spaces. β-open sets are a class of generalized open sets introduced by Njåstad (1965)
