Article Synopsis
- * The study introduces enhanced modeling techniques for neutrino flux and detector response, and it distinguishes between starting (inside) and throughgoing (outside) neutrino interaction events to improve energy resolution.
- * The findings indicate a best-fit point for the 3+1 model with sin²(2θ_{24})=0.16 and Δm_{41}²=3.5 eV², supporting previous studies while showing consistency with no evidence of sterile neutrinos, as reflected
Kidney injury disrupts the intricate renal architecture and triggers limited regeneration, together with injury-invoked inflammation and fibrosis. Deciphering the molecular pathways and cellular interactions driving these processes is challenging due to the complex tissue structure. Here, we apply single cell spatial transcriptomics to examine ischemia-reperfusion injury in the mouse kidney.

Nat Cardiovasc Res
November 2023
Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors improve clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF), but mechanisms of action are incompletely understood. In the EMPA-TROPISM trial, empagliflozin reversed cardiac remodeling and increased physical capacity in stable non-diabetic patients with systolic HF. Here we explore, post hoc, whether treatment effects in this cohort, comprising patients who had a high prevalence of iron deficiency, were related to iron metabolism.

- - The study presents a measurement of astrophysical tau neutrinos using 9.7 years of data from the IceCube observatory, identifying seven candidate events with energies between 20 TeV and 1 PeV.
- - Convolutional neural networks were used to analyze simulated event images, helping to estimate the parent tau neutrino energy to be around 200 TeV while facing a background of about 0.5 events primarily from non-tau astrophysical neutrinos.
- - The results confirmed the presence of astrophysical tau neutrinos at a 5σ significance level, aligning with existing IceCube measurements and theoretical predictions regarding neutrino flux and oscillations.
