Ultrasteep Slope Cryogenic FETs Based on Bilayer Graphene.

Cryogenic field-effect transistors (FETs) offer great potential for applications, the most notable example being classical control electronics for quantum information processors. For the latter, on-chip FETs with low power consumption are crucial. This requires operating voltages in the millivolt range, which are only achievable in devices with ultrasteep subthreshold slopes.

Bi-allelic loss-of-function variants in cause severe fetal akinesia with arthrogryposis multiplex.

Background: Fetal akinesia (FA) results in variable clinical presentations and has been associated with more than 166 different disease loci. However, the underlying molecular cause remains unclear in many individuals. We aimed to further define the set of genes involved.

The effects of vibrotactile masking on heartbeat detection: Evidence that somatosensory mechanoreceptors transduce heartbeat sensations.

The ability to detect heartbeat sensations is the most common basis for inferring individual differences in sensitivity to the interoceptive stimuli generated by the visceral activity. While the sensory sources of heartbeat sensations have yet to be identified, there is a growing consensus that visceral sensation, in general, is supported not only by the interoceptive system but also by the somatosensory system, and even by exteroception. The current experiment sought evidence on this issue by exploring the effects of masking the functions of somatosensory Pacinian and non-Pacinian mechanoreceptors on the ability to detect heartbeat sensations.

A new species of Tricorythodes Ulmer (Ephemeroptera: Leptohyphidae) from Uruguay.

A new species of Tricorythodes Ulmer (Ephemeroptera: Leptohyphidae) from Uruguay is described and illustrated based on nymphs and adults. Tricorythodes biluhue sp. nov.

Combined 3-O-acetylbetulin treatment and carbonic anhydrase IX inhibition results in additive effects on human breast cancer cells.

Hypoxia plays a key role in tumor progression and resistance to radiotherapy. Expression of the transmembrane-tethered enzyme carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is strongly induced by hypoxia. High CA IX expression levels correlate with poor prognosis in cancer patients.
