Quantum computation is based on implementing selected unitary transformations representing algorithms. A generalized optimal control theory is used to find the driving field that generates a prespecified unitary transformation. The approach is independent of the physical implementation of the quantum computer and it is illustrated for one and two qubit gates in model molecular systems, where only part of the Hilbert space is used for computation.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reinjury rates among athletes remain very high despite screening protocols designed to assess readiness for return to sport. To better identify biomechanical risk factors for ACL injury, combining neurocognitive challenges and high-impact tasks would more closely resemble sporting demands. We investigated the influence of secondary cognitive tasks on landing mechanics during bilateral drop vertical jumps (DVJs) among athletes following ACL reconstruction and whether sex affected these results.

Chitosan is a promising biomaterial for tissue engineering, but its functionality is limited by a lack of bioactive sites. This study develops chitosan/amniotic membrane microcarriers to enhance vascularization and tissue regeneration for subcutaneous adipose tissue. The incorporation of decellularized amniotic membrane enhances the bioactivities of chitosan in promoting cell differentiation and angiogenesis.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of freezing duration and matcha concentration on the rheological properties, moisture distribution, and multiscale structure of dough. The results indicated that both freezing and high concentrations of matcha (≥1 %) significantly reduced the stiffness of the dough matrix, restricted its ability to expand during fermentation, and disrupted the structure of gluten protein. Furthermore, freezing induced moisture redistribution within the dough.

Objective: To study the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) in reducing anxiety levels in patients undergoing first-time sternotomy for cardiac surgery.
Patients And Methods: A total of 100 adult patients scheduled for cardiac surgery at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, USA, was recruited from April 19, 2022, to October 12, 2022. Before surgery, patients wore a physiological monitor to record vital signs.

Epilepsy is a serious neurological disease that impacts all facets of a patient's life, including their socioeconomic situation. The failure to identify underlying epileptic signatures in their early stages might result in severe harm to the central nervous system (CNS) and permanent adverse changes to some organs. Therefore, numerous antiepileptic drugs (AEDs are frequently used to control and treat the frequency of seizures.
