A search for violation of the charge-parity (CP) symmetry in the D^{+}→K^{-}K^{+}π^{+} decay is presented, with proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4  fb^{-1}, collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the LHCb detector. A novel model-independent technique is used to compare the D^{+} and D^{-} phase-space distributions, with instrumental asymmetries subtracted using the D_{s}^{+}→K^{-}K^{+}π^{+} decay as a control channel.

Background: Current evidence suggests that hippocampal subfields have partially different genetic architecture and may improve the sensitivity of the detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, we investigated whether genetic predisposition to AD contributes to the accelerated rate of hippocampal volume atrophy across sex and AD stages and how this contribution is specifically driven by functional variants located in the APOE gene.

Methods: The study comprised 1,051 participants from ADNI cohort (75.

Background: Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are a common orthopaedic injury, often requiring surgical intervention. Routine postoperative radiographs are frequently obtained after surgical fixation to ensure adequacy of fixation and rule out early complications, yet their necessity remains unclear. Through this study, we tried to evaluate the impact of routine postoperative radiographs on the management of DRFs.

In this study, we introduce a denoising method aimed at improving the contrast ratio in low-field MRI (LFMRI) using an advanced 3D deep convolutional residual network model. Our approach employs synthetic brain imaging datasets that closely mimic the contrast and noise characteristics of LFMRI scans, addressing the limitation of available in-vivo LFMRI datasets for training deep learning models. In the simulation data, the Relative Contrast Ratio (RCR) increased, and similar improvements were observed in the in-vivo data across different imaging conditions.

Article Synopsis
  • Statins are often underutilized for preventing cardiovascular disease (CVD), and understanding factors influencing adherence is crucial.
  • This study aims to explore the connection between shared decision making (SDM)—reflected through recorded CVD risk scores—and patients' adherence to statins and overall health outcomes.
  • By analyzing data from English primary care records of patients aged 40-84 who started statin therapy, the research will assess how the presence of a CVD risk score at initiation impacts ongoing medication adherence and CVD-related results.
