We report a combined electrical transport and optical study of the superconductivity in atomically thin NbSe_{2}. When subjected to an out-of-plane magnetic field, an anomalous metallic state emerges, characterized by a finite longitudinal resistance and a vanishing Hall resistance, suggesting the presence of particle-hole symmetry. We establish a superconducting Higgs mode in atomically thin samples, which reveals enduring superconducting fluctuations that withstand unexpectedly high reduced magnetic fields.

Trichlorfon (TCF) is a widely used organophosphate pesticide whose inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) results in neurotoxicity and significant biosafety risks. Addressing these concerns requires effective strategies to mitigate TCF-induced toxicity and safeguard exposed organisms. In this study, we explored the potential of a catalytic activity enhanced Culex pipiens AChE mutant to mitigate TCF-induced cytotoxicity through rational design.

We uncover a phase transition from a zero-field Dirac spin liquid to a field-induced magnetically disordered phase that exhibits the 1/9-magnetization plateau. Through a comprehensive analysis encompassing the magnetization distribution, spin correlations, chiral order parameter, topological entanglement entropy, ground-state degeneracy, Chern number, and excitation spectrum, we pinpoint the phase associated with this magnetization plateau as a chiral Z_{3} topological quantum spin liquid and elucidate its diverse physical properties.

This study employed the Glide SP (standard precision)-peptide method to predict the binding modes of 20 dipeptides and 20 tripeptides to these targets, correlating residue composition and position with binding energy. Strong preferences for Trp, Phe, and Tyr were observed at all positions of potential inhibitory peptides, whereas negatively charged residues Glu and Asp were disfavored.

However, the extent to which improving unhealthy lifestyles reduces cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk needs to be discussed. We evaluated the impact of lifestyle improvement on CVD incidence using data from the China-PAR project (Prediction for Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk in China).

Despite long-term sustained experimental efforts in chasing for magnon polarons, direct spectroscopic evidence of their existence is hardly observed. Here, we report the direct observation of magnon polarons using neutron spectroscopy on a multiferroic FeMoO possessing strong magnon-phonon coupling.

Methods: A total of 2403 patients with DM who underwent complex PCI from January to December 2013 were consecutively enrolled in this observational cohort study and divided according to DAPT duration into a standard group (11-13 months, = 689) and two prolonged groups (13-24 months, = 1133; > 24 months, = 581).
Results: Baseline characteristics, angiographic findings, and complexity of PCI were comparable regardless of DAPT duration.

Background Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is one of the most common renal malignancies with a high mortality rate. Cuproptosis, a novel form of cell death, is strongly linked to mitochondrial metabolism and is mediated by protein lipoylation, leading to a proteotoxic stress response and cell death. To date, few studies have ellucidated the holistic role of cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in the pathogenesis of KIRC.

We employ the fluctuation-exchange approximation to study the relation of superconducting pairing symmetries and density-wave fluctuations based on the extended triangular Hubbard model upon electron doping and interactions, with an possible application to the layered metal dichalcogenide SnSe. For the case where the interactions between electrons contain only the on-site Hubbard term, the superconducting pairings are mainly mediated by spin fluctuations, and the spin-singlet pairing with the-wave symmetry robustly dominates in the low and moderate doping levels, and a-wave to extended-wave transition is observed as the electron doping reaches = 1. When the near-neighbor site Coulomb interactions are also included, the charge fluctuations are enhanced, and the spin-triplet pairings with the-wave and-wave symmetries can be realized in the high and low doping levels, respectively.
