Effect of telemedicine support for intraoperative anaesthesia care on postoperative outcomes: the TECTONICS randomised clinical trial.

Background: Telemedicine may help improve care quality and patient outcomes. Telemedicine for intraoperative decision support has not been rigorously studied.

Methods: This was a single-centre randomised clinical trial of unselected adult surgical patients.

Disentangling Sources of Momentum Fluctuations in Xe+Xe and Pb+Pb Collisions with the ATLAS Detector.

High-energy nuclear collisions create a quark-gluon plasma, whose initial condition and subsequent expansion vary from event to event, impacting the distribution of the eventwise average transverse momentum [P([p_{T}])]. Disentangling the contributions from fluctuations in the nuclear overlap size (geometrical component) and other sources at a fixed size (intrinsic component) remains a challenge. This problem is addressed by measuring the mean, variance, and skewness of P([p_{T}]) in ^{208}Pb+^{208}Pb and ^{129}Xe+^{129}Xe collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.

Polymeric Membranes for Liquid Separation: Innovations in Materials, Fabrication, and Industrial Applications.

Polymeric membranes have emerged as a versatile and efficient liquid separation technology, addressing the growing demand for sustainable, high-performance separation processes in various industrial sectors. This review offers an in-depth analysis of recent developments in polymeric membrane technology, focusing on materials' advancements, innovative fabrication methods, and strategies for improving performance. We discuss the underlying principles of membrane separation, selecting suitable polymers, and integrating novel materials, such as mixed-matrix and composite membranes, to enhance selectivity, permeability, and antifouling properties.

Maternal gut microbiota influence stem cell function in offspring.

The maternal microbiome influences child health. However, its impact on a given offspring's stem cells, which regulate development, remains poorly understood. To investigate the role of the maternal microbiome in conditioning the offspring's stem cells, we manipulated maternal microbiota using Akkermansia muciniphila.

Berbamine prevents SARS-CoV-2 entry and transmission.

Effective antiviral drugs are essential to combat COVID-19 and future pandemics. Although many compounds show antiviral activity, only a few retain effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2. Here, we show that berbamine (Berb) is effective against SARS-CoV, MER-CoV, SARS-CoV-2 and its variants, including the XBB.
