OBJECTIVE: Co-use of tobacco and cannabis may be prevalent in pregnancy, potentially leading to additional adverse health outcomes. Utilizing a national sample of women followed prospectively before, during, and after pregnancy, this study tested whether prepregnancy co-use of tobacco and cannabis (vs. tobacco-only use and cannabis-only use) was associated with greater likelihood of continuing to use tobacco and/or cannabis during pregnancy and postpartum. METHOD: Data were drawn from Waves 1-5 (2013-2019) of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) is a widely used green oxidant. Until now, research has focused on the development of efficient catalysts for the two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (2e- ORR). However, electrolyte effects on the 2e- ORR have remained little understood. We report a significant effect of alkali metal cations (AMCs) on carbons in acidic environments. The presence of AMCs at a glassy carbon electrode shifts the half wave potential from -0.48 to -0.22 VRHE . This cation-induced enhancement effect exhibits a uniquely sensitive on/off switching behavior depending on the voltammetric protocol...

Hypothermia is defined as a significant drop in core body temperature below 35°C (95°F). It is traditionally staged as mild, moderate, severe, and profound at temperatures of 35°C to 32°C (95°F to 89.6°F), 32°C to 28°C (89.6°F to 82.4°F), <28°C (<82.4°F), and <24°C (75.2°F), respectively. It can also be classified into the same stages by clinical presentations. We present a patient that fits into two different stages based on core body temperature and clinical presentation...

JOURNAL ARTICLE

The propagation of spin waves is one of the promising ways to design nanoscale spintronic devices. The spin waves can interact with the magnetic skyrmion, a particle-like object that is topologically stabilized by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) in thin film heterostructures. In this work, a spin wave-driven skyrmion-based diode is proposed by employing a T-shaped ferromagnetic nanotrack. The one-way motion of the skyrmion is achieved by exploiting the mid-arm at the center of the nanotrack. This prevents the reverse motion of the skyrmion owing to the skyrmion Hall effect (SkHE) and the absence of a repulsive force from the far edge in the mid-arm region...

This is a case of a 20-year-old pregnant female presenting EKG abnormalities associated with an overdose of bupropion. These ECG abnormalities are prolongation of the QRS, prolongation of the corrected QT interval (QTc), right axis deviation, and a terminal R wave. The propagation of electricity through the myocardium is dependent on many factors. It is dependent on the flow of sodium from the extracellular to intracellular space, flow of potassium from intracellular to extracellular space, and ultimately the propagation of the signal at the gap junction by Connexin 43 (Cx-43)...

In recent years, the stacking and twisting of atom-thin structures with matching crystal symmetry has provided a unique way to create new superlattice structures in which new properties emerge1,2 . In parallel, control over the temporal characteristics of strong light fields has allowed researchers to manipulate coherent electron transport in such atom-thin structures on sublaser-cycle timescales3,4 . Here we demonstrate a tailored light-wave-driven analogue to twisted layer stacking. Tailoring the spatial symmetry of the light waveform to that of the lattice of a hexagonal boron nitride monolayer and then twisting this waveform result in optical control of time-reversal symmetry breaking5 and the realization of the topological Haldane model6 in a laser-dressed two-dimensional insulating crystal...

STUDY QUESTION: How do transcriptomics vary in haploid human androgenote embryos at single cell level in the first four cell cycles of embryo development? SUMMARY ANSWER: Gene expression peaks at the fourth cell cycle, however some androcytes exhibit unique transcriptional behaviors. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: The developmental potential of an embryo is determined by the competence of the oocyte and the sperm. However, studies of the contribution of the paternal genome using pure haploid androgenotes are very scarce...

In this work, we discuss an application of the "inverse problem" method to find the external trapping potential, which has particular N trapped soliton-like solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) also known as the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE). This inverse method assumes particular forms for the trapped soliton wave function, which then determines the (unique) external (confining) potential. The latter renders these assumed waveforms exact solutions of the GPE (NLSE) for both attractive (g<0) and repulsive (g>0) self-interactions...

A productive HIV-1 infection in humans is often established by transmission and propagation of a single transmitted/founder (T/F) virus, which then evolves into a complex mixture of variants during the lifetime of infection. An effective HIV-1 vaccine should elicit broad immune responses in order to block the entry of diverse T/F viruses. Currently, no such vaccine exists. An in-depth study of escape variants emerging under host immune pressure during very early stages of infection might provide insights into such a HIV-1 vaccine design...

We present cross sections for the reaction e^{+}e^{-}→K_{S}^{0}K_{L}^{0} at center-of-mass energies ranging from 3.51 to 4.95 GeV using data samples collected in the BESIII experiment, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 26.5  fb^{-1}. The ratio of neutral-to-charged kaon form factors at large momentum transfers (12<Q^{2}<25  GeV^{2}) is determined to be 0.21±0.01, which indicates a small but significant effect of flavor-SU(3) breaking in the kaon wave function, and, consequently, excludes the possibility that flavor-SU(3) breaking is the primary reason for the strong experimental violation of the pQCD prediction |F(π^{±})|/|F(K^{±})|=f_{π}^{2}/f_{K}^{2}, where F(π^{±}) and F(K^{±}) are the form factors, and f_{π} and f_{K} are the decay constants of charged pions and kaons, respectively...

Easy-to-handle N -hydroxyacridinecarbimidoyl chloride hydrochlorides were synthesized as convenient nitrile oxide precursors in the preparation of 3-(acridin-9/2-yl)isoxazole derivatives via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with terminal alkynes, 1,1-dichloroethene, and acrylonitrile. Azirines with an acridin-9/2-yl substituent attached directly or via the 1,2,3-triazole linker to the azirine C2 were also synthesized. The three-membered rings of the acridine-azirine hybrids were found to be resistant to irradiation in the UV/visible boundary region, despite their long-wave absorption at 320-420 nm, indicating that the acridine moiety cannot be used as an antenna to transfer light energy to generate nitrile ylides from azirines for photoclick cycloaddition...

Cotton aphid Aphis gossypii Glover damages plants such as cotton directly by feeding on leaves and indirectly by transmitting viruses and excreting honeydew, which interferes with photosynthesis. The control of A. gossypii is still dominated by the frequent use of insecticides, which leads to a gradual increase in pesticide resistance in A. gossypii . Research is therefore needed on non-pesticide controls. In this study, seven plant essential oils (EOs) of Ocimum sanctum L., Ocimum basilicum L., Ocimum gratissimum L...
