Search for Soft Unclustered Energy Patterns in Proton-Proton Collisions at 13 TeV.

The first search for soft unclustered energy patterns (SUEPs) is performed using an integrated luminosity of 138  fb^{-1} of proton-proton collision data at sqrt[s]=13  TeV, collected in 2016-2018 by the CMS detector at the LHC. Such SUEPs are predicted by hidden valley models with a new, confining force with a large 't Hooft coupling. In events with boosted topologies, selected by high-threshold hadronic triggers, the multiplicity and sphericity of clustered tracks are used to reject the background from standard model quantum chromodynamics.

Search for the Z Boson Decay to ττμμ in Proton-Proton Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV.

The first search for the Z boson decay to ττμμ at the CERN LHC is presented, based on data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138  fb^{-1}. The data are compatible with the predicted background. For the first time, an upper limit at the 95% confidence level of 6.

One-time low concentration betadine eye wash: A novel treatment for epidemic viral conjunctivitis for accelerated recovery.

Purpose: This study aims to renew the management of viral epidemic conjunctivitis by introducing a one-time, low-concentration ocular surface povidone-iodine (LOS-pI) wash.

Methods: Among the 3,002 patients screened, 1,328 with acute conjunctivitis were categorized into two groups. Group A (664 patients) underwent a 1% betadine wash in addition to the standard treatment protocol (Eye Lubricant + Moxifloxacin 0.

Novel inhibitor against Rac1 for therapeutic approach in prevention of breast cancer progression.

Metastatic breast-cancer is one of the major causes of death, due to remaining dormant cancer cells for several years. Rac1 is upregulated with cancer and stay elevated throughout the metastatic pathway to regulate the formation of lamellipodia and filopodia. This work developed peptide FGDWS as novel inhibitor targeting Rac1-Tiam1 binding site by in-silico as it was found to be the strongest interacting peptide with Rac1 at the Tiam binding site.
