Inter-α-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain 4 (ITIH4) is a major protein in serum and reported to be upregulated at the onset of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Its citrullinated form, cit-ITIH4, is specifically found in the serum and synovial fluid of patients with RA. However, the detailed function of ITIH4 in arthritis remains unknown.

Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to evaluate a new method for accurately estimating breast volume before mastectomy, using the Vectra H2 technology.
- Patients underwent skin-sparing mastectomy and immediate reconstruction, with their breasts being 3D scanned for preoperative and post-surgery comparisons.
- Results showed a strong correlation between actual mastectomy weight and the estimated volume, indicating that three-dimensional imaging is a reliable and non-invasive tool for predicting breast volume in reconstruction.
Article Synopsis
- Using all-microwave control in superconducting quantum circuits helps reduce noise and wiring expenses.
- A swap interaction facilitated by a coupler transmon enhances the efficiency of operations between two data transmons under microwave drive.
- This method allows for the implementation of a controlled-Z gate that operates effectively with minimal residual interference, even when there are significant differences in frequency between the transmons.
