The synthesis of two conformationally restricted Cr(III) salen complexes, 2 and 3, is described. Together, they constitute a supramolecular hydrogen-bonding catalytic system for the recently reported asymmetric ring-opening reactions of epoxides by a dynamic supramolecular catalyst. The synthesis involves state-of-the art transformations in frontline synthetic chemistry applied to heterocyclic che

BACKGROUND: Early life risk factors are associated with cardiometabolic disease, but have not been fully studied in atrial fibrillation (AF). There are discordant results from existing studies of birth weight and AF, and the impact of maternal body size, gestational age, placental size, and birth length is unknown.METHODS AND RESULTS: The Helsinki Birth Cohort Study includes 13 345 people born as

Post-compression of (sub)-picosecond laser pulses down to sub-100 fs durations has become a standard approach for high-peak-power sources at a high average power [1]. Here, we propose a new post-compression geometry suited for extreme temporal compression of energetic narrowband lasers, such as diode or electrically pumped four-level systems which can deliver kW-average powers [2], but typically e

Peripheral nerve tumours, most commonly schwannomas and neurofibromas, might present significant challenges by eliciting physical symptoms and emotional distress. We aimed to explore patients’ expectations, perceptions, and experiences regarding their diagnosis and the surgical treatment of a nerve tumour in the upper limb. Fourteen adults (10 women, 4 men; age range 35–85) from two Swedish hand s

Dopaminergic neurons in the ventral midbrain are critical for regulating movement, cognition, and emotion. Ventral midbrain organoids can be used to model both development and diseases of the dopaminergic system, especially Parkinson’s disease. Here, we summarize recent advances and remaining challenges in developing such three-dimensional organoids from human pluripotent stem cells. We outline ho

Solar-driven hydrogen production stores renewable energy chemically but suffers from efficiency limitations due to the slow hole transport-dominated recombination, which caused by high valence band degeneracy and hole effective mass. Targeted hole trap regulation is essential to minimize these losses and enhance photocatalytic H2 evolution performance for practical applications. This study address

Background: The 313-variant polygenic risk score (PRS313) provides a promising tool for clinical breast cancer risk prediction. However, evaluation of the PRS313 across different European populations which could influence risk estimation has not been performed. Methods: We explored the distribution of PRS313 across European populations using genotype data from 94,072 females without breast cancer

Epitaxially grown nanowires have shown promise for photovoltaic applications due to their nanophotonic properties. Moreover, the mechanical properties of nanowires can reduce crystallographic defect formation at interfaces to help enable new material combinations for photovoltaics. One material that stands to benefit from the nanowire morphology is zinc phosphide (Zn3P2), which, despite promising

Analyzing kinetic experiments on protein aggregation using integrated rate laws has led to numerous advances in our understanding of the fundamental chemical mechanisms behind amyloidogenic disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. However, the description of biologically relevant processes may require rate equations that are too complex to solve using existing methods, hindering mec

Growing evidence of the microbiome's importance for plant ecology highlights the need for conservation strategies that consider both plants and their microbial partners, the holobiont. Population genomics are valuable tools for designing conservation strategies but rarely accounts for host- or site-specific microbial interactions. Orchids, with their dependence on specific mycorrhizal fungi, exemp

Inverted perovskite solar cells (IPSCs) have emerged as promising photovoltaic technologies due to excellent photoelectric properties and solution processing advantages. However, the traditional preparation process based on inert atmosphere annealing of perovskite films faces key challenges, including high energy consumption, strict crystallization control, and the presence of stresses. The study

Quantum information and quantum computing are based on the concept and manipulation of qubits. In this pedagogical Tutorial-written with the aim of assisting self-motivated undergraduate mathematics, physics, and engineering students-transformation of these qubits, especially the Hadamard transformation (H) and the phase shifter transformation (φ), is illustrated. Two-qubit gates and their applica

Musculoskeletal health is essential to health, well-being, and independence across the life course. Musculoskeletal conditions including inflammatory joint diseases, osteoarthritis, back pain, osteoporosis, and fragility fractures are among the greatest causes of disability globally imposing a major burden on health and social care and economic impact also through lost productivity. Despite effect

Optimization of machining processes, such as milling, is essential for industrial efficiency and product quality. To achieve greater efficiency, it is necessary to understand how tools wear down in different conditions in order to anticipate possible undesirable events like sudden breakage or unpredictable degradation. This study focuses on understanding tool wear in dry milling of compacted graph

Metal oxide nanoparticles are essential in various applications, and the synthesis through gas-phase generation methods offers a rapid and reliable pathway for nanoparticle production. Yet achieving precise control over their formation remains challenging due to the complex nature of oxidation processes. While bulk oxidation states can be assessed via off-line measurements, the dynamic nature of s

Accurate prediction of crack growth and strength in glued timber joints and components can be achieved by using cohesive laws in constitutive models. These laws represent the traction-separation relationship that measures the stress transmitted between crack faces in a cohesive zone, and can be obtained directly from experiments. However, studies on measuring the cohesive laws of wood adhesive bon

BACKGROUND: Neuromuscular exercise is commonly used in knee injury prevention programs and in rehabilitation following knee injury, and can also be used to address functional impairments is middle-aged and older individuals with knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA). CLINICAL QUESTION: What is neuromuscular exercise for OA? Why should clinicians use it? And how? Nine themes of common questions from exe
