AI Article Synopsis
- HIFU is effective for stopping bleeding in both solid organs and blood vessels, as seen in animal studies.
- It works through two main effects: thermal, which involves heat, and mechanical, which involves sound waves.
- This technique could be beneficial in both surgical and emergency situations for trauma and elective surgeries.
Article Abstract
High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been shown to be an effective method of hemostasis, in animal studies, for both solid organs and blood vessels. Two distinct effects of HIFU, thermal and mechanical, appear to contribute to hemostasis. Acoustic hemostasis may provide an effective method in surgery and prehospital settings for treating trauma and elective surgery patients. A review of the methodology is given.

Terahertz (THz) signals are crucial for ultrawideband communication and high-resolution radar, demanding miniaturized detectors that can simultaneously measure multiple parameters such as intensity, frequency, polarization, and phase. Traditional detectors fail to meet these needs. To address this, we introduce a plasmon polariton atomic cavity (PPAC) detector based on monolayer graphene, offering a multifunctional, monolithic, and miniaturized solution.

Sedentism is an adaptive alternative in human societies which is often associated with the emergence of complex societies in the Holocene. To elucidate the factors and processes of the emergence of sedentary societies, continuous accumulation of case studies based on robust evidence from across the world is required. Given abundant archaeological and geological evidence from the late Pleistocene to early Holocene, Tanegashima Island, situated in the southern Japanese Archipelago of the northwestern Pacific Rim, has significant potential to unravel factors and processes of sedentism.

During winter months, there is increased pressure on health care systems in temperature climates due to seasonal increases in respiratory illnesses. Providing real-time short-term forecasts of the demand for health care services helps managers plan their services. During the Winter of 2022-23 we piloted a new forecasting pipeline, using existing surveillance indicators which are sensitive to increases in respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

This study investigates the motion of an electron in a Coulomb potential driven by an intense linearly polarized XUV laser pulse analyzed using Gordon-Volkov wave functions. The wave function is decomposed into spherical partial waves to model the scattered electron wave packet after the recollision with a proton. This interaction triggers high harmonic generation, producing coherent X-ray pulses with frequencies that are integer multiples of the XUV field.
