Controllable orbital angular momentum monopoles in chiral topological semimetals.

The emerging field of orbitronics aims to generate and control orbital angular momentum for information processing. Chiral crystals are promising orbitronic materials because they have been predicted to host monopole-like orbital textures, where the orbital angular momentum aligns isotropically with the electron's crystal momentum. However, such monopoles have not yet been directly observed in chiral crystals.

Efficacy of thrombopoietin receptor agonists versus rituximab in non-responsive immune thrombocytopenia-A single centre retrospective analysis.

Management of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) beyond initial glucocorticoid therapy is challenging. In this retrospective single-centre cohort study, we compared all ITP patients relapsed or non-responsive to glucocorticoid therapy treated with either continuous TPO-RAs (n = 35) or rituximab induction (n = 20) between 2015 and 2022. While both groups showed high initial complete response rates (CR, 68.

Synthesis and Polymorph Manipulation of FeSe Monolayers.

Polymorph engineering involves the manipulation of material properties through controlled structural modification and is a candidate technique for creating unique two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) nanodevices. Despite its promise, polymorph engineering of magnetic TMDC monolayers has not yet been demonstrated. Here we grow FeSe monolayers via molecular beam epitaxy and find that they have great promise for magnetic polymorph engineering.

Oral microbiota of patients with phenylketonuria: A nation-based cross-sectional study.

Aim: The oral microenvironment contributes to microbial composition and immune equilibrium. It is considered to be influenced by dietary habits. Phenylketonuria (PKU) patients, who follow a lifelong low-protein diet, exhibit higher prevalence of oral diseases such as periodontitis, offering a suitable model to explore the interplay between diet, oral microbiota and oral health.
