Laboratory zebrafish are commonly infected with the intracellular, brain-infecting microsporidian parasite Pseudoloma neurophilia. Chronic P. neurophilia infections induce inflammation in meninges, brain and spinal cord, and have been suggested to affect neural functions since parasite clusters reside inside neurons. However, underlying neural and…[Read more]

The monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are an emergent semiconductor platform exhibiting rich excitonic physics with coupled spin-valley degree of freedom and optical addressability. Here, we report a new series of low energy excitonic emission lines in the photoluminescence spectrum of ultraclean monolayer WSe2. These excitonic satellites…[Read more]

This paper reports on durable and nearly temperature-independent (at 298-328 K) T-type photochromism of colloidal Cu-doped ZnS nanocrystals (NCs). The color of Cu-doped ZnS NC powder changes from pale yellow to dark gray by UV light irradiation, and the color changes back to pale yellow on a time scale of several tens of seconds to minutes after…[Read more]

The median OS was 12.5 versus 11.8 months in the ADX and PBO groups, respectively. The median PFS was 7.5 versus 7.1 months in the ADX and PBO groups, respectively. The objective response rate was 51% in the ADX group and 41% in the PBO group. Among the subgroup analyses, patients of age ≥ 65 years had an improved OS and PFS with ADX versus PBO; t…[Read more]

All 11 patients were discharged home. During follow-up (3.0 ± 2.4 years), 1 patient developed a recurrent type A acute aortic dissection and underwent emergency aortic repair 29 months later. There was no aorta-related death.

For years, turmeric has been used in several cuisines worldwide because of its proven health benefits. However,…[Read more]
