Isospin Breaking in Heavy-Meson Decay Constants

, 2017
Evaluation of Borelized QCD sum rules in the so-called local-duality limit of infinitely large Borel mass parameter provides an alternate route for extraction of the dependence of the decay constants of heavy-light mesons on the mass $m_q$ of the ...

Association Between Patient‐Specific Factors and the Therapeutic Relationship in Direct Access Physiotherapy for Higher Education Students—An Observational Cross‐Sectional Study

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 30, Issue 4, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain is a common issue among higher education students and is often linked to poor physical function and a high psychosocial burden. In direct access physiotherapy, a patient‐centered approach is essential for building a strong therapeutic relationship.

Do calcium channel blockers applied to cardiomyocytes cause increased channel expression resulting in reduced efficacy?

npj Systems Biology and Applications
In the initial hours following the application of the calcium channel blocker (CCB) nifedipine to microtissues consisting of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs), we observe notable variations in the drug’s efficacy ...

A 3D Printing Strategy for Hard Curved Surfaced Circuits: From Materials to Applications

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 36, September 25, 2025.
Conventional PCB etching (multi‐step) and indirect transfer techniques fail to meet structural electronics’ demands for lightweight, miniaturized, and customized manufacturing. 3D‐printed conformal circuits enable direct integration of conductive traces into substrates or onto surfaces, achieving integrated structural‐functional fabrication.

Facilitating Requirements Inspection with Search-Based Selection of Diverse Use Case Scenarios

EAI Endorsed Transactions on Creative Technologies, 2016
Use case scenarios are often used for conducting requirements inspection and other relevant downstream activities. While working with industrial partners, we discovered that an automated solution is required for optimally selecting a subset of use case ...

Decay Constants of Beauty Mesons from QCD Sum Rules

, 2014
Our recently completed analysis of the decay constants of both pseudoscalar and vector beauty mesons reveals that in the bottom-quark sector two specific features of the sum-rule predictions show up: (i) For the input value of the bottom-quark mass in ...

Intracranial pressure elevation alters CSF clearance pathways

Fluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2020
Background Infusion testing is a common procedure to determine whether shunting will be beneficial in patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus. The method has a well-developed theoretical foundation and corresponding mathematical models that describe ...

Developing epidemiological preparedness for a plant disease invasion: Modelling citrus huánglóngbìng in the European Union

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1403-1423, September 2025.
Huánglóngbìng (HLB) is a bacterial disease of citrus that has significantly impacted Brazil and the United States, although citrus production in the Mediterranean Basin remains unaffected. By developing a mathematical model of spread in Spain, we tested surveillance and control strategies before any future HLB entry in the EU.

Zeroed Out: Cryptanalysis of Weak PRFs in Alternating Moduli

IACR Transactions on Symmetric Cryptology
The growing adoption of secure multi-party computation (MPC) has driven the development of efficient symmetric key primitives tailored for MPC. Recent advances, such as the alternating moduli paradigm, have shown promise but leave room for cryptographic

Charmed Pseudoscalar and Vector Mesons: a Comprehensive QCD Sum-Rule View of Their Decay Constants

, 2014
In spite of undeniable similarities of the applied techniques, somewhat different challenges are encountered when extracting, from QCD sum rules derived from two-point correlators of appropriate interpolating heavy-light quark currents, the decay ...
