Protein synthesis (translation) consumes a substantial proportion of cellular resources, prompting specialized mechanisms to reduce translation under adverse conditions. Ribosome inactivation often involves ribosome-interacting proteins. In both bacteria and eukaryotes, various ribosome-interacting proteins facilitate ribosome dimerization or hibernation, and/or prevent ribosomal subunits from associating, enabling the organisms to adapt to stress.

Here we conduct numerical investigations into the structure-dynamics relationship in model glass-forming liquids, with a specific focus on an elementary particle rearrangement mode known as the 'T1 process'. We discover that the ability of a T1 process to preserve glassy structural order before and after is pivotal towards determining a liquid's fragility-whether it exhibits super-Arrhenius-like or Arrhenius-like behaviour.

- The study developed a new nutritional screening method called the J-Method for patients in convalescent rehabilitation, aiming to improve outcomes by better identifying malnutrition.
- The J-Method uses data from medical records and evaluates patients over 65 years old with cerebrovascular diseases, compared to the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form (MNA-SF).
- Results showed that the J-Method may detect malnutrition more accurately than the MNA-SF, recommending early nutritional management to enhance rehabilitation effectiveness.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between falls and cognitive and balance problems in patients.
Methods: This retrospective observational study analyzed the medical records of 1010 older patients admitted to a convalescent rehabilitation ward. The primary endpoint was fall occurrence during ward stays.
