Machine Learning Prediction of Nitric Acid Extraction Behavior in PUREX Process.

Plutonium uranium reduction extraction (PUREX) is a liquid-liquid extraction process used to recover plutonium (Pu) and uranium (U) from irradiated uranium fuel for various nuclear-related applications. Despite extensive efforts, quantitative prediction of liquid-liquid extraction parameters, i.e.

Prevalence of Neurodiversity in a UK High Secure Psychiatric Hospital Cohort: A Records Study.

Background: The term neurodiversity is an umbrella term for any atypical pattern of cognitive ability, including but not confined to neurodevelopmental disorders. Research suggests that several neurodivergent conditions are overrepresented in offender populations, with a recent survey suggesting that over half of those coming into contact with the criminal justice system may have a neurodivergent condition. Considerable effort has been invested in trying to divert people with such conditions out of long-stay hospitals, but nevertheless, a few studies in secure hospitals suggest that while prevalence in hospitals may be lower than in prisons, it is high relative to the general population.

How I diagnose high-grade B-cell lymphoma.

Objectives: High-grade B-cell lymphoma (HGBL), introduced in the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) revised fourth edition classification, included cases defined by MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements or by high-grade morphology. Diagnostic criteria and nomenclature for these lymphomas were refined in the 2022 WHO fifth edition (WHO-5) classification and International Consensus Classification (ICC). This review describes our approach to the diagnosis of HGBL.

Investigating the Role of Primary Cilia and Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling in Periodontal Ligament Response to Orthodontic Strain In Vivo and In Vitro: A Pilot Study.

Periodontal ligament (PDL) cells are crucial for mechanosensation and mechanotransduction within the PDL, yet the role of primary cilia in orthodontic force transmission has not been examined. While bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling significantly influences ciliary function, its effect on cellular responses to mechanical stress has not been investigated. This study aims to investigate whether primary cilia and BMP signaling are involved in the periodontal ligament's response to orthodontic tooth movement and the resultant mechanical strain.
