The growing complexity of urban energy systems, climate uncertainties, and geopolitical disruptions highlight the need for energy flexibility and smart management. Recent developments in smart buildings enable real-time adaptability and collective energy behavior through the deployment of Reinforcement Learning (RL), which optimizes energy use, integrates distributed resources, and enhances demand
Carbon Black (CB), graphene, and nanodiamonds represent three classes of manufactured carbonaceous nanoparticles consisting almost exclusively of insoluble material. Particle-related Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) have been linked to in vivo and in vitro toxicity and determining particle ROS activity is an efficient way of estimating nanomaterial toxicity and assist in the safe-by-design developmen
Background Bariatric metabolic surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass [RYGB] and sleeve gastrectomy [SG]) effectively treats obesity and type 2 diabetes; however, weight loss varies, necessitating predictive factors. Methods We analysed 12- and 24-month weight loss data from 811 patients (RYGB or SG). Factor Analysis of Mixed Data and neural network (NN) modelling identified distinct patient phenotypes
Background. Ruling out acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in the emergency department (ED) is challenging. Studies have shown that a high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) <5 ng/L or <6 ng/L at presentation (0 h) can be used to rule out AMI. The objective of this study was to identify whether an even higher hs-cTnT threshold can be used for a safe rule out of AMI in the ED. Methods. The deri
Water is the matrix of life, and its confinement in nanocavities is a central topic from geophysics to nanotribology. Phyllosilicate layered minerals provide natural nanocavities for water due to their capacity to hydrate by confining water molecules in the interlamellar space. However, the hydration of phyllosilicates at the nanoscale is not a fully understood process and depends on the geologica
Theoretical approaches to learning in practice-based jazz improvisation contexts include situated learning and ecological perspectives. This article focuses on how interest-driven, self-sustaining jazz learning activities can be matched against the concepts of stolen knowledge (Brown & Duguid, 1996) and landscape of learning (Bjerstedt, 2014).

We report on recent developments that enable megahertz hard X-ray phase contrast imaging (MHz XPCI) experiments at the Single Particles, Clusters, and Biomolecules and Serial Femtosecond Crystallography (SPB/SFX) instrument of the European XFEL facility (EuXFEL). We describe the technical implementation of the key components, including an MHz fast camera and a modular indirect X-ray microscope sys
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technology can detect molecular information; Because of its high sensitivity, it is widely used in chemical analysis. In this study discussed the experimental detection of 1,4-diethynylbenzene molecule based on SERS technology. The SERS spectra of 1,4-diethynylbenzene molecule were calculated by Density Functional Theory (DFT) simulation, and the results sh
Background: Metformin is one of the most used drugs worldwide. Given the increasing use of proteomics in trials, bioresources, and clinics, it is crucial to understand the influence of metformin on the levels of the circulating proteome. Methods: We analysed a combined longitudinal proteomics dataset from the IMPOCT, RAMP and S3WP-T2D clinical trials in 98 participants before and after metformin e

Bacteriophages must overcome diverse bacterial immune systems, yet the molecular principles enabling such escape remain poorly understood. Here, we show that the phage homing endonuclease SegB facilitates immune evasion by promoting the segmental amplification of anti-defense loci. The antiphage defense Septu inhibits phage T6 replication by cleaving the variable loop of tRNATyr. We show that SegB
Background: Limited evidence exists for effect modification of genetic characteristics on the associations of food consumption and incident type 2 diabetes (T2D). Objectives: We aimed to investigate whether the food-T2D association would vary by genetic susceptibility to metabolic traits. Methods: We analyzed data from 9542 incident T2D cases and a subcohort of 12,477 participants nested within th
Background: Polygenic prediction studies in continental Africans are scarce. Africa’s genetic and environmental diversity pose a challenge that limits the generalizability of polygenic risk scores (PRS) for body mass index (BMI) within the continent. Studies to understand the factors that affect PRS variability within Africa are required. Methods: Using the first multi-ancestry genome-wide associa

Background: While housing and neighborhood features have the potential to impact opportunities for active aging, there is a lack of knowledge related to how older people reason regarding their housing situation and how housing and fulfillment of relocation are associated with active and healthy aging. Objective: The objectives of Prospective RELOC-AGE are to study housing choices and relocation an
BACKGROUND: The Chronic Kidney Disease in Children Study (CKiD) equation for children and the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation for adults are recommended serum creatinine (SCr)-based calculations for estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR). However, these equations, as well as their combination, have limitations, notably the problem of implausible changes in
Checkpoint blockade therapies that reactivate tumour-associated T cells can induce durable tumour control and result in the long-term survival of patients with advanced cancers1. Current predictive biomarkers for therapy response include high levels of intratumour immunological activity, a high tumour mutational burden and specific characteristics of the gut microbiota2,3. Although the role of T c
