We study the effect of quantum dynamics on geometrically frustrated magnets for a transverse field Ising model at finite temperatures. We develop a microscopic derivation of the Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson action for this model and show that it can be interpreted as the free energy of a 3D elastic lattice of noncrossing strings. As a first application, we quantitatively predict the phase diagram and correlations, confirming excellently a key prediction of recent simulations about the existence of unusual phase transitions and an ordered phase. We discuss the implications of our string picture for the understanding of the effect of quenched disorder in such quantum frustrated systems.

Living With and Managing Uncomplicated Urinary Tract Infection: Mixed Methods Analysis of Patient Insights From Social Media.
J Med Internet Res
March 2025
GSK, London, United Kingdom.
Background: Uncomplicated urinary tract infections (uUTIs) affect more than half of women in their lifetime and can impact on quality of life. We analyzed social media posts discussing uUTIs to gather insights into the patient experience, including aspects of their disease management journey and associated opinions and concerns.
Objective: This study aims to gather patient experience insights by analyzing social media posts that discussed uUTI.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the biological properties and chemical profiles of chickweed extracts using various solvents and advanced techniques like UHPLC/MS/MS.
- Twelve phenolic compounds, primarily flavonoids, were identified, with the water extract showing the best antioxidant capabilities and the ethyl acetate extract showing strong enzyme-inhibiting effects.
- The findings suggest chickweed could be a valuable resource for developing products in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmeceutical sectors due to its significant cytotoxic effects and potential mechanisms of action against cancer-related targets.
Deciphering the genetic interplay between depression and dysmenorrhea: a Mendelian randomization study.
Brief Bioinform
November 2024
Department of Biological Sciences, School of Science, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, 111 Ren'ai Road, Suzhou Industrial Park, Suzhou, Jiangsu 215123, China.
Background: This study aims to explore the link between depression and dysmenorrhea by using an integrated and innovative approach that combines genomic, transcriptomic, and protein interaction data/information from various resources.
Methods: A two-sample, bidirectional, and multivariate Mendelian randomization (MR) approach was applied to determine causality between dysmenorrhea and depression. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) data were used to identify genetic variants associated with both dysmenorrhea and depression, followed by colocalization analysis of shared genetic influences.
Sentence production is the uniquely human ability to transform complex thoughts into strings of words. Despite the importance of this process, language production research has primarily focused on single words. However, it remains a largely untested assumption that the principles of word production generalize to more naturalistic utterances like sentences.

My children sat down according to their developmental age, with my oldest farthest away and my youngest right by my side. I watched as their faces lit up during various scenes, wondering if they were connecting to an emotional epicenter in their brain or perhaps reflecting on their own core memories and beliefs.
