ABSTRACT Purpose Although not always achieved, complete chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) control is the conventional goal of CINV prophylaxis. In this two‐center, mixed‐methods study, we sought to understand the preferences of adolescent patients and family caregivers for CINV control endpoints.

Symmetry-breaking phase-transitions in highly concentrated semen [PDF]
New experimental evidence of self-motion of a confined active suspension is presented. Depositing fresh semen sample in an annular shaped micro- fluidic chip leads to a spontaneous vortex state of the fluid at sufficiently large sperm concentration.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Smartphones and Semen Analysis [PDF]
In March 1876, when the telephone pioneer Alexander Graham Bell made his historic call to his assistant, Thomas Watson, it is unlikely that either one of them envisaged other applications for a phone, let alone the medical application of a phone that was published in March 2017 by Shafiee and colleagues in Science Translational Medicine (1) (Figure 1).
