Diagnostic Performance of Ultrasound in Adult Appendicitis. A Retrospective Review of 331 Cases

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
The sensitivity of ultrasound in the detection of appendicitis had a prevalence of 16% in our predominantly young female cohort, with alternative gynaecological and abdominal diagnoses identified approximately 2:1. The sensitivity for ultrasound to detect appendicitis was 60%, with specificity of 98% and negative predictive value (NPV) of 93%.

Probing Metal Tip‐Induced Bond Weakening of a Reactive Alkyne Center Aligned via a Rigid Triphenylmethane‐Based Tripod on Au(111) by TERS and DFT

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
We investigate tip‐induced bond weakening of a single alkyne center immobilized and aligned upright on Au(111) using a rigid triphenylmethane‐based tripod. By varying the tip–molecule distance, we observe shifts in the ≡C–H and –C≡C– vibrational bands via ultrahigh vacuum low‐temperature tip‐enhanced Raman scattering (TERS).

Recent Advances in Photonic Bound States in the Continuum: From Fundamentals to Engineering and Implementation

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This review summarizes recent progress in meta‐photonics with a focus on bound states in the continuum (BICs) as a powerful platform for light confinement and control. It covers fundamental concepts, design strategies across optical regimes, symmetry breaking for practical quasi‐BICs, tunable and AI‐assisted BIC devices, and emerging applications in ...

Inverse Design of Mirror‐Symmetric Disordered Systems for Broadband Perfect Transmission

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work introduces an inverse design approach to achieve broadband perfect wave transmission in mirror‐symmetric disordered media. Leveraging symmetry simplifies optimization and enables control of multiple reflectionless states. Experiments in microwave waveguides confirm the design of exceptional points, bandpass filters, and broadband quasi ...

Germanium‐Based Mid‐Infrared Integrated Photonics

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
The mid‐infrared (mid‐IR) spectral range is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum in which most of the molecules have vibrational and rotational resonances. Photonics integration in this wavelength range have thus seen a burst of interest in the recent years, mainly driven by applications related with the detection of chemical and biological ...
