AbstractThe exploration of new properties and functionality of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) rely mostly on the covalent modification of the starting building blocks or linkages. Noncovalent forces that guide the assembly and adhesion of layers to develop two‐dimensional (2D) COFs and improve their bulk properties and functionalities, however, are rarely explored. Herein, the “conformational lock” (CL) effect in 2D hydrazine‐linked COFs with intralayer F–H interaction is discovered and regulated to stabilize interlayer adhesion and develop a facile strategy to increase their stability, promote selectivity and efficiency in reactive singlet oxygen (1O2)‐triggered photocatalytic transformation when acting as photocatalysts. The CL strategy endows the fluorinated COFs with an efficient intersystem crossing process for 1O2 generation and strong interlayer π–π stacking interaction. The 4F‐COF with the strongest F–H noncovalent interaction exhibits the highest photocatalytic conversion and selectivity (exceeding 98%) in typical 1O2‐dependent transformations, even over 7 continuous photocatalytic cycles. This work demonstrates that promoting intralayer noncovalent interaction in 2D‐COFs can impart high photocatalytic activity and stability, and would vigorously inspire their developments in heterogeneous catalysis.
Organic Thiolate as Multifunctional Salt for Rechargeable Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Published: September 2024

AbstractThe practical application of lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries is hindered by the severe shuttle effect of soluble polysulfide intermediates and the unstable lithium anode interface. Conventional lithium salts (e.g., LiPF6, LiTFSI) just serve as conducting salts to provide necessary free lithium cations for internal ion transport, lacking full utilization of the anions. Herein, lithium 4‐fluorobenzenethiolate (F‐PhSLi) as a multifunctional salt for rechargeable Li–S batteries, which is able to chemically react with sulfur to alter the redox pathway of sulfur cathode, accelerate the sulfur redox kinetics, and inhibit the shuttle effect of polysulfides is reported. Meanwhile, due to the redox activity of F‐PhSLi, the reactive electrolyte can offer additional capacity. In addition, it also can construct a stable LiF‐rich solid electrolyte interface layer on the lithium metal anode. Such reactive electrolyte endows Li–S batteries with ultrahigh discharge specific capacity, improved sulfur utilization, long‐term storage ability, enhanced rate capability, and outstanding low‐temperature performance. This work presents a new solution for developing high performance Li–S batteries.
Strain Field Around Individual Dislocations Controls Failure

Published: September 2024

AbstractUnderstanding material failure on a fundamental level is a key aspect in the design of robust structural materials, especially for metals and alloys capable to undergo plastic deformation. In the last decade, significant progress is made in quantifying the stresses associated with failure in both experiments and simulations. Nonetheless, the processes occurring on the most essential level of individual dislocations that govern semi‐brittle and ductile fracture are still experimentally not accessible, limiting the failure prediction capabilities. Therefore, in the present work, a one‐of‐a‐kind nanoscale fracture experiment is conducted on a single crystalline Cr bending beam in situ in the transmission electron microscope and for the first time quantify the transient strains around individual dislocations, as well as of the whole dislocation network during crack opening. The results reveal the importance of both pre‐existing and newly emitted dislocations for crack‐tip shielding via their intrinsic strain field and provide guidelines to design more damage tolerant materials.

Published: September 2024

AbstractThe study of a bio‐convection is a natural progression that happens as microbes transport unsystematically in single‐celled or colony‐like environments; as they live ubiquitously, individuals, as in rodents, and plant forms. They're so much denser than liquid, owing to which, microbes develop a basis of bio‐convection. Gyrotactic microbes are individuals that dip up‐stream in contradiction of gravity in motionless liquid, producing the higher portion of the deferment to be thicker than the lesser part. Bioconvection's significance can be realized in a diversity of bio‐microsystems, for instance, bio‐tech allied to mass transport, biofuels, enzyme biosensors and fraternization. Together with nanofluids, a mixture of bioconvective is working to progress the structure's thermal enactment which has uses in diverse scientific structures. Recent study has related the progress of extrusion features, radiative heat progression and biofuel fabrication to the use of nanoparticles. The essential plans of the modern scrutinization are to examine the magneto bioconvection flow of nonlinear radiative Carreau fluid persuades by the nanofluid and Joule heating. Additionally, Convective conditions of heat, mass and motile microorganism with heat sink/source and chemical reaction have been explored. By means of similarity alteration to alter the nonlinear partial differential equations into nonlinear Ordinary differential equations (ODE). The solutions of subjected equations have been attained by exploiting the bvp4c algorithm. Homotopic algorithm has been also executed for comparison of bvp4c results and former studies. The impacts of relatable factors on diverse fields are sketched in graphic form. The study explores temperature field enhancement for thermo Biot and Brownian motion factors. Furthermore, the fluid concentration exaggerates for mass Biot and chemical reaction factor; however, declines for Brownian motion factor. The motile density field decays with the rising values for Peclet number and intensifies for motile density Biot factor. The comparison tables of current work and previous work also have been presented for the authentication of work with two different techniques.

Published: September 2024

AbstractIn landscape-aware algorithm selection problem, the effectiveness of feature-based predictive models strongly depends on the representativeness of training data for practical applications. In this work, we investigate the potential of randomly generated functions (RGF) for the model training, which cover a much more diverse set of optimization problem classes compared to the widely-used black-box optimization benchmarking (BBOB) suite. Correspondingly, we focus on automated algorithm configuration (AAC), that is, selecting the best suited algorithm and fine-tuning its hyperparameters based on the landscape features of problem instances. Precisely, we analyze the performance of dense neural network (NN) models in handling the multi-output mixed regression and classification tasks using different training data sets, such as RGF and many-affine BBOB (MA-BBOB) functions. Based on our results on the BBOB functions in 5d and 20d, near optimal configurations can be identified using the proposed approach, which can most of the time outperform the off-the-shelf default configuration considered by practitioners with limited knowledge about AAC. Furthermore, the predicted configurations are competitive against the single best solver in many cases. Overall, configurations with better performance can be best identified by using NN models trained on a combination of RGF and MA-BBOB functions.
Analytic NNLO QCD corrections to top quark pair production in electron-positron collisions
Authors: Chen Long-Bin , Wang Jian , Wang Yefan 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
We present the analytic total cross section of top quark pair production in electron-positron annihilation at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). By utilizing the optical theorem, the NNLO corrections are related to the imaginary parts of three-loop self-energy Feynman diagrams, of which the master integrals are calculated with canonical differential equations. The analytic results for the NNLO corrections are expressed in terms of multiple polylogarithms as well as elliptic functions. We discuss the asymptotic expansions near the threshold and in the high energy limit in detail. Numerical results are provided for the total cross section of top quark pair production at future lepton colliders.
Feynman integral reductions by intersection theory with orthogonal bases and closed formulae
Authors: Crisanti Giulio , Smith Sid 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
We present a prescription for choosing orthogonal bases of differential n-forms belonging to quadratic twisted period integrals, with respect to the intersection number inner product. To evaluate these inner products, we additionally propose a new closed formula for intersection numbers beyond d log forms. These findings allow us to systematically construct orthonormal bases between twisted period integrals of this type. In the context of Feynman integrals, this represents all diagrams at one-loop.
Constructive holography
Authors: de Mello Koch Robert , Van Zyl Hendrik J. R. 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
We consider the collective field theory description of the singlet sector of a free and massless matrix field in d dimensions. The k-local collective fields are functions of (d − 1)k + 1 coordinates. We provide a map between the collective fields and fields in the dual gravitational theory defined on AdSd+1 spacetime. The coordinates of the collective field have a natural interpretation: the k-local collective field is a field defined on an AdSd+1×Sk−1×S(d−2)(k−2)×Sd−3 spacetime. The modes of a harmonic expansion on the Sk−1×S(d−2)(k−2)×Sd−3 portion of the spacetime leads to the spinning bulk fields of the dual gravity theory.
Axion relic pockets — a theory of dark matter
Authors: Carenza Pierluca , Eby Joshua , Iarygina Oksana , Marsh M. C. David 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
We propose a new theory of dark matter based on axion physics and cosmological phase transitions. We show that theories in which a gauge coupling increases through a first-order phase transition naturally result in ‘axion relic pockets’: regions of relic false vacua stabilised by the pressure from a kinematically trapped, hot axion gas. Axion relic pockets provide a viable and highly economical theory of dark matter: the macroscopic properties of the pockets depend only on a single parameter (the phase transition temperature). We describe the formation, evolution and present-day properties of axion relic pockets, and outline how their phenomenology is distinct from existing dark matter paradigms. We briefly discuss how laboratory experiments and astronomical observations can be used to test the theory, and identify gamma-ray observations of magnetised, dark-matter-dense environments as particularly promising.
An innovative process chain for the production of antibiofouling polymer parts using ultrafast laser texturing
Authors: Oubellaouch Keltoum , Orazi Leonardo , Brun Paola , Lucchetta Giovanni , Pelaccia Riccardo , Sorgato Marco 
Published: September 2024

AbstractPolymers are versatile materials widely used in various industries, with significant applications in biomedicine where biofouling on polymer surfaces presents major health and economic challenges. Biofouling, initiated by bacterial adhesion, can be mitigated by modifying surface properties through laser micro- and nano-texturing, an approach that offers advantages over chemical treatments. This study introduces an economical mass production process for textured polymeric components using injection molding to replicate hierarchical textures. Testing revealed that all textured samples significantly reduced bacterial adhesion compared to untextured surfaces across different designs and bacteria types after 24 h of culture. The study examined factors like wettability, nanoscale roughness, and pattern dimensions to explain these outcomes, comparing them with existing studies. Despite all textured samples showing decreased wettability and roughness, these factors alone did not ensure reduced bacterial adhesion. The most effective anti-adhesive performance was observed in surfaces with parallel ridge patterns, which segmented the surface into isolated areas that limited bacterial interaction and hindered micro-colony formation, highlighting the importance of specific surface patterning in combating biofouling.
A precise and efficient exceedance-set algorithm for detecting environmental extremes
Authors: Suesse Thomas , Brenning Alexander 
Published: September 2024

AbstractInference for predicted exceedance sets is important for various environmental issues such as detecting environmental anomalies and emergencies with high confidence. A critical part is to construct inner and outer predicted exceedance sets using an algorithm that samples from the predictive distribution. The simple currently used sampling procedure can lead to misleading conclusions for some locations due to relatively large standard errors when proportions are estimated from independent observations. Instead we propose an algorithm that calculates probabilities numerically using the Genz–Bretz algorithm, which is based on quasi-random numbers leading to more accurate inner and outer sets, as illustrated on rainfall data in the state of Paraná, Brazil.

Authors: Yamaguchi Ruri , Oda Tetsuro , Nagashima Kengo 
Published: September 2024

Abstract

Purpose
To compare the diagnostic test accuracy (DTA) of shear wave elastography (SWE) to that of transient elastography (TE) for liver fibrosis grade assessment in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease adults.

Methods
MEDLINE, The Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched. Inclusion criteria were primary studies examining DTA of TE, point SWE (pSWE), two-dimensional SWE (2D-SWE), or magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) with liver biopsy. Network meta-analysis was conducted using a Bayesian bivariate mixed-effects model.

Results
For fibrosis grade 2 or higher, 15 studies with 25 observations (16 observations for TE, 1 for MRE, 4 for pSWE and 2D-SWE; 2,066 patients) were included; the pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.79 (95% credible interval (CrI) 0.70–0.86; 95% prediction interval (PI) 0.36–0.96) and 0.73 (95% CrI 0.62–0.82; 95% PI 0.23–0.96) for TE, 0.68 (95% CrI 0.48–0.83; 95% PI 0.23–0.94) and 0.75 (95% CrI 0.53–0.88; 95% PI 0.24–0.97) for pSWE, 0.85 (95% CrI 0.70–0.93; 95% PI 0.40–0.98) and 0.72 (95% CrI 0.49–0.86; 95% PI 0.20–0.96) for 2D-SWE, respectively. The proportion of studies classified as unclear in QUADAS-2 was high, and the results were heterogeneous.

Conclusion
2D-SWE could be recommended as TE is for liver fibrosis assessment.

The influence of decisional conflict on treatment decision in pelvic organ prolapse—data from the SHADE-POP trial
Authors: Drost Larissa E. , de Jong Rachel D. M. , Stegeman Marjan , Franx Arie , Vos M. Caroline 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Purpose
Women with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse are facing the choice between several treatment options and a potentially difficult decision. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of decisional conflict, patient characteristics and other decision-related factors on treatment decision in women with pelvic organ prolapse.

Methods
Data from the SHADE-POP trial were used. Women with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse who visited their gynaecologist for (new) treatment options were included. In all participants, demographical characteristics and validated questionnaires concerning decisional conflict (DCS), shared decision making (SDM-Q-9), information provision (SCIP-B), anxiety and depression (HADS) and satisfaction with care (PSQ-18) were collected 2 weeks after the visit. Analyses were performed using univariate and multivariate linear and logistic regression analyses.

Results
Ninety six women with pelvic organ prolapse facing a treatment decision were included. An increase in decisional conflict as experienced by patients was related to the choice of more conservative treatment, such as pelvic floor muscle training or pessary, instead of surgery (p = 0.02). Shared decision making, better information provision and satisfaction with care were related to lower levels of decisional conflict (p = 0.001).

Conclusion
Decisional conflict in women with pelvic organ prolapse favours conservative treatment instead of surgery. Gaining knowledge on the effect of decisional conflict, patient characteristics and other decision-related factors on treatment decision in pelvic organ prolapse will be a step towards a better-guided treatment decision and better patient-reported outcomes for this group of patients.

Predictors of injection laryngoplasty volume for glottic insufficiency
Authors: Roitman Ariel , Venkatraman Anumitha , Thibeault Susan 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Purpose
Volume injected for glottic insufficiency is paramount in achieving desired outcome. Factors that determine the required volume have not been thoroughly investigated and may correlate with outcome. The first objective of this investigation was to evaluate the association between injectable volume and various parameters, including lifestyle characteristics, pre-procedural factors, and voice measures, while the second aim assessed the correlation of volume to clinical outcomes in patients who underwent injection laryngoplasty.

Methods
For the first objective, a one-way ANOVA and univariate linear regression were used to analyze data from 124 patients (injected material, pre-operative diagnosis, previous voice therapy, age etc.). One-sample t-tests and Pearson correlational coefficients were employed for statistical analysis of aim 2 in a subgroup of 28 patients that had pre- and post-injection voice evaluations (e.g., acoustic and aerodynamic analysis, perceptual assessment, questionnaires).

Results
Average injection volume was 0.39 ± 0.062 mL (range: 0.1–1.6mL). No pre-procedural or lifestyle factor significantly affected injection volume (p > 0.05). There was no relationship between pre-procedural voice outcomes and injection volume (p > 0.05). Of the factors that were significantly improved post-injection laryngoplasty (GFI, VHI, and GRBAS), there were no significant correlations between the magnitude of improvement in these measures and injection volume (p > 0.05).

Conclusion
Injection volume does not appear to be affected by pre-procedural or lifestyle factors. In addition, injection volume does not significantly impact clinical outcomes assessed through voice analysis or patient-reported questionnaires. Our results underscore the complexity of factors at play in injection laryngoplasty for glottic insufficiency.

Authors: Posta Bálint , Rovó László , Bere Zsófia 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Introduction
Reviewing the literature, Osia 2 system implantation is predominantly performed under general anesthesia (GA). Although in the pediatric population GA is inevitable, in adult cases, especially with high anesthesiological risks, local anesthesia (LA) is an obvious solution.

Method
The aim of this article is to provide a detailed demonstration of Osia 2 implantation under LA. In our case series of five adult implant recipients, the surgical procedure was carried out without encountering any difficulties during or after the operation.

Conclusion
Based on our experiences, implantation of the Osia® 2 System under local anesthesia is an easy and safe method for patients.
