Genetic diversity and population structure of the Taigan dog breed

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The Taigan is a rare sighthound from the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. We used DNA markers to study its genetic diversity and compare it with other sighthound breeds. Our findings show that the Taigan shares close genetic ties with the Kazakh Tazy, suggesting a common ancestry shaped by nomadic traditions and regional adaptation.

Agreement of administrative pharmacy dispensing with self‐reported use of oral prednisone in US Veterans with rheumatoid arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Administrative claims are used to evaluate oral glucocorticoid use in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), despite limited evidence to support accuracy. We aimed to evaluate the performance of claims‐based algorithms for glucocorticoid use compared to self‐report in an RA population.

Fast Neutron Detector Based on Hybrid 2D Perovskite Thin Films

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents the direct detection of fast neutrons using flexible hybrid 2D perovskite (PEA2PbBr4) thin‐film detectors. Thanks to their high low‐Z elements content and good charge transport, these materials enable efficient neutron detection. The thin film configuration allowed the operation at low voltage, and offer scalability, flexibility, and

Near‐Field Optical Detection of Defect‐Stabilized Metallic Islands at the Verwey Transition in Fe3O4

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Nanoscale metallic islands emerging across the Verwey transition in thin films of Fe3O4 are imaged using near‐field optical microscopy from mid‐infrared to terahertz frequencies. Recurring across thermal cycles, these disorder‐stabilized islands exhibit distinct transition temperatures.

Superior Adhesion of Monolayer Amorphous Carbon to Copper

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The adhesion energy of monolayer amorphous carbon on copper substrate is 85 J m−2, 13 times higher than that of graphene due to covalent‐like bonding between the sp2 carbon structure to copper. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), near‐edge X‐ray absorption (NEXAFS), and (density functional theory) DFT calculations are used to elucidate the ...

Durable Low‐Interfacial Toughness PDMS/SiO2 Coatings with Superior Anti‐Icing and Large‐Scale Deicing Performance in the Natural Field

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Low‐interfacial toughness PDMS/SiO2 coatings are applied to aluminum substrates and tested under natural high‐altitude conditions. The coatings demonstrate strong anti‐icing, icephobic, and large‐scale deicing performance. Field results highlight delayed freezing, reduced ice adhesion, and stable durability, offering practical insights into the use of ...

Non‐Hermitian Topological Lattice Photonics: An Analytic Perspective

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
This review establishes exact analytical solutions for non‐Hermitian Hatano–Nelson, Su–Schrieffer–Heeger, and generalized Rice–Mele models. We demonstrate non‐Hermitian skin effects via point‐gap topology, hybrid skin‐topological edge states in 2D lattices, and spin‐polarized boundary modes governed by dual bulk‐boundary correspondence.
