The Xcounts algorithm for calculating air concentrations of radioactive xenon isotopes (Eslinger et al., 2023) has been extended to estimate Xe in addition to Xe, Xe, Xe, and Xe. The algorithm was applied to 119 samples collected with a SAUNA Q system (Ringbom et al.

This trial evaluates the efficacy of Navigation for Disparities and Untimely Radiation thErapy (NDURE), an enhanced navigation-based intervention, relative to usual care (UC) patient navigation for starting timely PORT.
Methods: Adults with locally advanced HNSCC planning to undergo surgery and PORT were randomly assigned 1:1 to standard multidisciplinary head and neck oncology care and either NDURE, a multilevel navigation-based intervention to enhance key processes of care and overcome barriers to timely PORT, or UC, which consisted of standard patient navigation.
Intramolecular Charge Transfer in Antiaromatic Donor/Acceptor-Fused s-Indacenes.
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
December 2024
Herein we report the synthesis and characterization of four donor/acceptor-fused s-indacenes via the late-stage oxidation of a family of unsymmetrical benzofuran/benzothiophene-s-indacene regioisomers. A thorough study of their properties through experimental and computational analysis has revealed the effect of asymmetry on the molecular properties associated with antiaromaticity, as well as a strong correlation between antiaromaticity and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT). The strength of the charge transfer depends on the fusion orientation of the donor and acceptor motifs relative to the s-indacene core.

- This study examined how two levels of low-intensity vibration training (0.6 g and 1.0 g) affected muscle and bone recovery in mice after a muscle injury known as volumetric muscle loss (VML).
- Mice were divided into groups receiving either no treatment or varying levels of vibration training for 15 minutes a day over 8 weeks post-injury.
- Results showed that bone structure improved with vibration training, particularly at the 1.0 g level, while muscle function showed less significant enhancement, suggesting that vibration training may be more beneficial for bone recovery than for muscle after VML.
Article Synopsis
- * The study uses computational methods to investigate how heteroatoms and heterocyclic fusion influence antiaromaticity in -indacene, revealing that both factors significantly impact stability, with the position of substitution being crucial.
- * The research highlights that while heteroatom effects are stronger, heterocycle fusion still plays a role, and understanding these interactions can help design more stable antiaromatic compounds for electronic applications.
