Published: February 2025

Abstract
The W-band is essential for applications like high-resolution imaging and advanced monitoring systems, but high-frequency signal attenuation leads to poor signal-to-noise ratios, posing challenges for compact and multi-channel systems. This necessitates distinct frequency selective surfaces (FSS) on a single substrate, a complex task due to inherent substrate resonance modes. In this study, we use a digital metasurface platform to design W-band FSS on a glass substrate, optimized through binary optimization assisted by active learning. The digital metasurface is composed of a periodic array of sub-wavelength unit cells, each containing hundreds of metal or dielectric pixels that act as binary states. By utilizing a machine learning model, we apply active learning-aided binary optimization to determine the optimal binary state configurations for a given target FSS profile. Specifically, we identify optimal designs for distinct FSS on a conventional glass substrate, with transmittance peaks at 79.3 GHz and Q-factors of 32.7.
Baseline-free structured light 3D imaging using a metasurface double-helix dot projector
Authors: Shen Zicheng , Ni Yibo , Yang Yuanmu 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Structured light is a widely used 3D imaging method with a drawback that it typically requires a long baseline length between the laser projector and the camera sensor, which hinders its utilization in space-constrained scenarios. On the other hand, the application of passive 3D imaging methods, such as depth from depth-dependent point spread functions (PSFs), is impeded by the challenge in measuring textureless scenes. Here, we combine the advantages of both structured light and depth-dependent PSFs and propose a baseline-free structured light 3D imaging system. A metasurface is designed to project a structured dot array and encode depth information in the double-helix pattern of each dot simultaneously. Combined with a straightforward and fast algorithm, we demonstrate accurate 3D point cloud acquisition for various real-world scenarios including multiple cardboard boxes and a living human face. Such a technique may find application in a broad range of areas including consumer electronics and precision metrology.

Authors: Qadrie Zulfkar , Maqbool Mudasir , Dar Mohd Altaf , Qadir Afshana 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has revolutionized the field of surgery by offering reduced trauma, faster recovery times, and improved patient outcomes compared to traditional open procedures. However, the widespread adoption of MIS is not without challenges, and managing complications and limitations is essential for optimizing patient safety and surgical efficacy. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the strategies employed in the management of complications and limitations associated with MIS. Complications in MIS can arise from various factors, including anatomical variations, unexpected bleeding, or difficulties in instrument manipulation. Recognizing the potential for complications is crucial, and surgeons must be equipped to make real-time decisions, including the possibility of converting to open procedures when necessary. Patient selection plays a pivotal role, with thorough preoperative assessments helping identify individuals who may be at higher risk for complications. Limitations in MIS are diverse and can stem from anatomical challenges, such as restricted access in confined spaces or complex structures. While technological advancements, such as robotic-assisted surgery and advanced imaging, have mitigated some limitations, ongoing efforts are directed toward overcoming challenges related to limited range of motion and maneuverability in intricate anatomical locations. Strategies for the management of complications and limitations involve a multidisciplinary approach. Surgeon training and proficiency in MIS techniques are paramount, emphasizing the importance of ongoing education and simulation-based training. Thorough preoperative planning, including a comprehensive assessment of patient history and anatomical considerations, helps anticipate potential challenges. Additionally, advancements in technology, such as enhanced imaging and robotic-assisted systems, contribute to improved visualization and precision during MIS. Regular maintenance and calibration of equipment, along with an emphasis on team communication and collaboration, further enhance the safety and effectiveness of MIS. The management of complications and limitations in MIS requires a holistic approach, encompassing surgical expertise, technological innovations, and meticulous preoperative planning. By addressing these challenges, the field of MIS continues to evolve, offering patients minimally invasive options with enhanced safety and efficacy.

Published: February 2025

Abstract
In this paper, we concentrate on a prominent financial model known as the natural model.
Specifically, this model is represented by a stochastic differential equation called the natural equation, which plays a crucial role in our investigation.
More precisely, our primary aim is to establish the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the natural equation under a condition weaker than the Lipschitz condition, termed the non-Lipschitz condition.
Our investigation is grounded in certain inequalities, such as Gronwall’s inequality, Bihari’s inequality, and Burkholder–Davis–Gundy (BDG) inequality.
Additionally, the mean square stability of the solutions to the natural equation is obtained in this research.

Published: February 2025

Background. Providing rehabilitation care to women with external genital endometriosis (EGE) after surgical treatment requires an interdisciplinary approach to selecting patient management strategy and biomarkers for objective monitoring of health status.Objective: to determine the feasibility of using inflammatory biomarkers in women undergoing rehabilitation after EGE surgical treatment to assess the quality of care.Material and methods. The study included 40 EGE patients (main group), 40 patients with other gynecological pathologies (comparison group), and 40 nearly healthy women (control group). All participants with gynecological pathologies underwent surgical treatment with subsequent rehabilitation. The severity of the inflammatory process was assessed using the following inflammation biomarkers: serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-a), citrullinated histone H3 (CitH3), and the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR). The dynamics of changes in biomarker levels were measured before surgery, 1 week and 3 months after it.Results. The assessment of inflammatory biomarker serum concentrations indicated the presence of inflammatory processes in patients of both the main and comparison groups. However, the levels of IL-6, TNF-a, CitH3 and NLR among EGE patients were statistically significantly higher compared to similar parameters in women with other gynecological pathologies. One week after surgery, the main group showed a significant increase in concentrations of IL-6, CitH3 and NLR and a decrease in TNF-a levels compared to baseline values. Three months after surgery, a significant reduction in the severity of the inflammatory process in the main group was observed compared to the values obtained 1 week after surgery. In several cases, the levels of inflammatory biomarkers were statistically significantly lower than baseline values. Notably, the serum concentration of CitH3 decreased to levels observed in nearly healthy women.Conclusion. An inflammatory process was recorded in EGE patients, which can be corrected through surgical intervention. Using serum concentrations of CitH3 as a marker for assessing the quality of surgical treatment for EGE and managing patients during the rehabilitation phase was proved to be viable.

Published: February 2025

Abstract

Biofilms develop in sequential steps resulting in the formation of three-dimensional communities of microorganisms that are encased in self-produced extracellular polymeric substances. Biofilms play a key role in device-associated infections, such as catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs), because they protect microorganisms from standard antimicrobial therapies. Current strategies to prevent biofilm formation in catheter-related infections, including prophylactic antibiotics and antibiotic-coated catheters, have been unsuccessful, highlighting a need for novel technologies. In this study, biofilm-forming phenotypes of common Gram-negative bacteria associated with CAUTIs were treated with antisense-peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) and biofilm biomass and bacterial viability were quantified after 24 or 48 hours of treatment. A cocktail of PNAs targeting the global regulator genes rsmA, amrZ, and rpoS in Pseudomonas aeruginosa significantly reduced biofilm biomass and viability. Antisense-wide-range PNAs against these same gene targets and the motility regulator gene motA inhibited biofilm formation among isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter cloacae, Escherichia coli, and Proteus mirabilis, but did not reduce bacterial viability. These results suggest that antisense-PNAs are a promising new technology in preventing biofilm formation in urinary catheters, especially as a potential complement to conventional antimicrobials.

Abstract

This study investigates children’s narrative skills, using the Multilingual Assessment Instrument for Narratives (MAIN), a theory-based tool adapted to 100 languages. How do children’s overall narrative skills, including the use of factual and inferred components, and the development of complete episodes, differ across languages and between monolinguals and bilinguals? To answer this, we examined 2608 comparable fictional narratives of 1189 monolingual and bilingual children aged 3-13 years, speaking 33 languages. Children told or retold stories elicited with parallel picture sequences. Narratives were analyzed for inclusion of five essential story components (internal states as initiating events, goals, attempts, outcomes, internal states as results), overall narrative structure, use of factual and inferred information, and presence of complete episodes. Monolinguals initially outperformed bilinguals, but bilinguals’ narrative skills developed more rapidly and eventually surpassed those of monolinguals, with all children performing better in story retelling than storytelling, especially in their L2. Across languages, children were more likely to produce factual components (outcomes/attempts) than inferred ones (internal states/goals). The likelihood of producing a complete narrative increased with age; monolinguals consistently outperformed bilinguals, even under stricter coding criteria. Patterns of use for factual and inferred components were consistent across languages, suggesting universal strategies in narrative development.

Abstract

Objective
Liver cancer is a significant contributor to the global disease burden. we first provide estimates of the worldwide burden of liver cancer from 2000 to 2021 in middle-aged and elderly people with decomposition, cross-country inequality and frontier analysis.
Methods
The age-standardized rate (ASR) and estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) were utilized for measuring prevalence, incidence, deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) rate trends. Decomposition, cross country inequalities and frontier analysis to estimate the burden.
Results
In 2021, the number of liver cancer prevalence and the incidence was increased compared to 1990, while the number of deaths and DALYs slightly decreased. The burden of liver cancer was higher in males than in females. Population growth led to an increase in the burden. Aging and epidemiological changes made significant contributions to the reduction of the liver cancer burden. There was a V-shaped relationship between the DALYs rate and SDI regions. There was a significant absolute inequality across countries. 15 countries and regions had considerable potential for improvement in reducing the burden .
Conclusion
This study reveals the complex dynamic changes in the global burden of liver cancer across middle-aged and elderly people. In the future, it is necessary to strengthen international cooperation, promote the fair distribution of medical resources, and formulate and implement differentiated strategies.
