The Ξ_{b}^{0(-)}→Ξ_{c}(3055)^{+(0)}(→D^{+(0)}Λ)π^{-} decay chains are observed, and the spin-parity of Ξ_{c}(3055)^{+(0)} baryons is determined for the first time. The measurement is performed using proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt[s]=13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 fb^{-1}, recorded by the LHCb experiment between 2016 and 2018.

Although the versatility of hyaluronic acid fillers stems from the wide array of available products, for the biostimulatory filler calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), dilution can be used to control product volumizing capacity and flow properties, facilitating use for panfacial rejuvenation. Here, the authors share case studies illustrating how CaHA at various dilutions can be used to achieve global aesthetic improvement as part of a multilayered approach to rejuvenation.

Objective: To measure the influence of parents' distress on proxy-reported scores regarding symptoms by analyzing pairs of parents reporting on the same child.

Digital health technologies have the potential to measure how a patient feels and functions with low patient burden e.g.: to provide real-world evidence of the benefit of a novel treatment.

The reconstructed final states are formed by combining D^{+} mesons with τ^{-}→μ^{-}ν[over ¯]_{μ}ν_{τ} candidates, where the D^{+} is reconstructed via the D^{+}→K^{-}π^{+}π^{+} decay.
