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

Background: The selection of the best donor for each specific patient is crucial for the success of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, there is debate on the choice of the best donor when multiple suitable donors exist.

Methods: By using own data from two transplant centers, we have developed a calculator able to provide the patients' 2-year overall survival (OS) associated with each of the potential donor options during the selection process, in order to support the transplant physician during the choice.

Introduction: Retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness is a promising biomarker of axonal loss and a potential outcome predictor in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Cognitive impairment (CoI) exhibits a high prevalence in patients with MS (pwMS), even in the early phases of the disease. Our aim was to explore the role of RNFL thickness as a predictor of physical and cognitive disability in pwMS.

Article Synopsis
  • The systematic review aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous Transarterial Embolization (TAE) in treating spontaneous retroperitoneal hematomas, analyzing data from 141 patients across six studies.
  • Results showed a 100% technical success rate but clinical success rates varied, with complications occurring in 10 out of 116 procedures analyzed.
  • The study concluded that TAE is a safe and effective treatment option for life-threatening hematomas, with low complication rates and no significant difference in rebleeding between targeted and empirical embolization.

Unlabelled: The quantification of soil carbon dioxide (CO) flux represents an indicator of the agro-ecosystems sustainability. However, the monitoring of these fluxes is quite challenging due to their high spatially-temporally variability and dependence on environmental variables and soil management practices.In this study, soil CO fluxes were measured using a low-cost accumulation chamber, that was realized for the surveys, in an orange orchard managed under different soil management (SM, bare mulched soils) and water regime (WR, full irrigation regulated deficit irrigation) strategies.
