We experimentally demonstrate sum-frequency generation with entangled photon pairs, generating as many as 40,000 photons per second, visible even to the naked eye. The nonclassical nature of the interaction is exhibited by a linear intensity dependence of the nonlinear process. The key element in our scheme is the generation of an ultrahigh flux of entangled photons while maintaining their nonclassical properties. This is made possible by generating the down-converted photons as broadband as possible, orders of magnitude wider than the pump. This approach can be applied to other nonlinear interactions, and may become useful for various quantum-measurement tasks.

Spin Hall nano-oscillators convert DC to magnetic auto-oscillations in the microwave regime. Current research on these devices is dedicated to creating next-generation energy-efficient hardware for communication technologies. Despite intensive research on magnetic auto-oscillations within the past decade, the nanoscale mapping of those dynamics remained a challenge.

Background: Cardiac arrest (CA) triggers a systemic inflammatory response, resulting in brain and cardiovascular dysfunction. The red blood cell distribution width (RDW)-to-albumin ratio (RAR) has been widely explored in various inflammation-related diseases. However, the predictive value of RAR for the prognosis of CA remains unclear.

Background: Polygenic risk score (PRS) prediction is widely used to assess the risk of diagnosis and progression of many diseases. Routinely, the weights of individual SNPs are estimated by the linear regression model that assumes independent and linear contribution of each SNP to the phenotype. However, for complex multifactorial diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and others, association between individual SNPs and disease could be non-linear due to epistatic interactions.

Background: It has been demonstrated that older adults' cognitive capacities can be improved with sleep duration. However, the relationship between overweight, obesity, and cognitive decline remains a subject of debate. The impact of sleep duration on cognitive performance in seniors with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m is largely unknown.

Purpose: We aim to ascertain the extent to which the blood urea nitrogen (BUN) to serum albumin (ALB) ratio (BAR) could be implemented to anticipate the short- and long-term prognosis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients in intensive care units (ICUs).

Methods: The data was derived from the Marketplace for Intensive Care Medical Information-IV (MIMIC-IV v3.0) database, primarily pertaining to AIS patients as categorized by the International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-9 and ICD-10.
