MusicSwarm: Biologically Inspired Intelligence for Music Composition

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Biologically inspired swarms of frozen foundation models self‐organize to compose complex music without fine‐tuning. By coordinating through stigmergic signals, decentralized agents dynamically evolve specialized roles and adapt to solve complex tasks.

A nanoplatform that induces dual‐amino acid deprivation to reverse tumor immunosuppression and enhance metabolic immunotherapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
ZIF‐8‐based nanoparticles co‐delivering CB‐839 (glutaminase inhibitor) and 1‐MT (IDO1 inhibitor), dual‐targeting glutamine/tryptophan metabolism to induce immunogenic cell death, activate STING, block kynurenine production, reverse immunosuppression, and enhance cancer immunotherapy to suppress primary/distant tumors.

Acupuncture alters cortical and corticomuscular functional connectivity in stroke patients with motor dysfunction

Journal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Stroke is a leading cause of global mortality and disability, often resulting in severe motor dysfunction. Acupuncture has shown promise in stroke rehabilitation, but its neural mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated the immediate effects of acupuncture at GV26, PC6, and SP6 on cortical and corticomuscular functional connectivity ...

Enhancing Study Design and Analysis of MR Imaging Markers Through Measurement Error Modeling

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Measurement error in imaging reduces statistical power and potentially biases parameter estimation, compromising study reliability. Purpose To introduce a dual data collection design (reliability and main datasets) to quantify measurement error and apply regression calibration to correct error‐prone imaging markers, thereby ...

New Series of Hydrogen-Bonded Liquid Crystal with High Birefringence and Conductivity

Molecules
Liquid crystals with high dielectric anisotropy, low operational thresholds, and significant birefringence (Δn) represent a key focus in soft matter research. This work introduces a novel series of hydrogen-bonded liquid crystals (HBLCs) derived from 4-n-

Analysis of balance in adults with chronic axial spinal pain receiving medial branch block or radiofrequency ablation procedures

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Medial branch blocks (MBB) and radiofrequency ablations (RFA) are common diagnostic, prognostic, and interventional procedures performed for the management of cervical and lumbar spine facetogenic pain. Although these procedures have established utility as pain management strategies, it is unclear if the disruption in function of ...

The oscillatory response of the electroretinogram and neuronal adaptation

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract After more than 50 years, there still remains a challenge and an interest to know more as well as extend and deepen our understanding of the small rapid wavelets, the oscillatory potentials (OPs), of the electroretinogram (ERG) and the neuronal adaptation of the retina.

Wintering Barnacle Geese Exhibit an Increased Behavioural Drive for Sleep After Sleep Deprivation Without a Clear EEG‐Based Sleep Rebound

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep is essential for normal physiological functioning, and sleep deprivation is typically compensated by increasing subsequent sleep duration and/or intensity. However, a recent study showed that barnacle geese (Branta leucopsis) exhibit seasonal variation in sleep homeostasis, with full recovery of sleep after sleep deprivation in summer ...

Refined Division of Sleep Stages in the Mouse Based on Distributed Deep Electrodes and Underlying Infra‐Slow Oscillation

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mouse sleep is mostly recorded with only epidural electrodes and divided simply into NREM and REM stages. With the help of distributed intracerebral triplet electrodes, we searched for possible new electrophysiological signatures to characterise more specific sleep substages within the timeframe of seconds to tens of minutes.
