Objective: To evaluate the trabecular bone score (TBS) Z scores in long-distance runners with bone stress injuries (BSIs) in whom the bone mineral density (BMD) Z score is more than -1.0 (Aim 1) and whether the number of runners with abnormal TBS Z scores would be higher in those with BSI in trabecular-rich sites as compared with cortical-rich sites (Aim 2).
Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Article Synopsis
- Increasing biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) in maize can lessen the environmental harm caused by synthetic nitrogen fertilizers, but high levels of reactive nitrogen in the rhizosphere hinder this process.
- Researchers developed gene-edited strains of bacteria (Klebsiella variicola and Kosakonia sacchari) to enhance BNF and ammonium release in nitrogen-rich conditions.
- Experiments showed that these engineered strains significantly boosted BNF activity and ammonium output, contributing an average of 21 kg of nitrogen per hectare to maize plants, thus potentially reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers and improving crop yield stability.
Quantum computing promises to offer substantial speed-ups over its classical counterpart for certain problems. However, the greatest impediment to realizing its full potential is noise that is inherent to these systems. The widely accepted solution to this challenge is the implementation of fault-tolerant quantum circuits, which is out of reach for current processors.

For Calderbank-Shor-Steane codes that can implement Clifford gates transversally, it suffices to provide one additional non-Clifford gate, such as the T gate, to achieve universality. Common methods to implement fault-tolerant T gates, e.
