Article Synopsis
  • Josephson junctions allow for lossless electrical current flow in superconductors and are important for technologies like quantum bits, but understanding their supercurrent distribution has been challenging.
  • A new platform using a scanning magnetometer with nitrogen vacancy centers in diamond allows researchers to visualize supercurrent flow at the nanoscale, revealing competing ground states in zero-resistance conditions.
  • This research uncovers a new mechanism behind the Josephson diode effect and offers insights into unconventional superconductivity, which could improve quantum computing and energy-efficient technology.

Background: Among many genes which have been analyzed to understand obesity and related metabolic traits among children and adolescents, not many studies are conducted on LGALS3 gene, especially in population of children. A positive correlation of circulating galectin 3 serum levels with impaired blood glucose, high blood pressure and higher values of serum lipids and was found in general population. The aim was to investigate possible association of rs4644 with body mass index, glycaemia, and lipid profile in Serbian adolescents.

Introduction: Burnout syndrome develops as a consequence of chronic stress among employees. The study objective was to examine what socio-descriptive characteristics of employees might be associated with the appearance of the occupational burnout and to evaluate the relationship between job burnout and the quality of life among security employees of the professional private security sector in Central Serbia.

Methods: A multicenter cross-sectional questionnaire-based study was performed.

Objective: To compare time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per week, MVPA per day, and steps per day between individuals that were subjected to the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and healthy control group.

Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies.

Data Sources: Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed have been comprehensively searched to identify relevant investigations.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the impact of rapid weight loss (RWL) on metabolic health, specifically focusing on former combat sports athletes compared to other athletes who did not use RWL.
  • It analyzed various metabolic syndrome parameters, including blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood glucose levels, among 150 participants divided into two groups.
  • Findings reveal that former CSA who practiced RWL exhibited significantly higher blood pressure and a greater prevalence of metabolic syndrome compared to those who did not, indicating potential long-term health risks associated with RWL.
