In chaotically driven nonlinear dynamical systems, weak generalized synchrony can arise through distinct scenarios or routes in a manner similar to the onset of low-dimensional chaos or the creation of strange nonchaotic attractors in quasiperiodically driven systems. The limit sets of the dynamics for weak generalized synchronization are nonchaotic-the Lyapunov exponent is nonpositive-and are geometrically strange. Quantitative measures related to the parameter sensitivity exponent and finite-time Lyapunov exponent distributions can be defined in order to characterize generalized synchronization.

Introduction: To report the progress of the human living uterus transplant research project in Singapore.
Material And Methods: The uterus transplant research project began in 2012 with a collaboration between the Swedish and Singapore teams. Ethics approval was obtained from the SingHealth Centralised Institutional Review Board, the SingHealth Transplant and the Singapore General Hospital Biomedical Ethics Committee to perform 5 uterus transplant procedures in a collaborative multi-site research study at the Singapore General Hospital.

Smart cities deploy various sensors such as microphones and RGB cameras to collect data to improve the safety and comfort of the citizens. As data annotation is expensive, self-supervised methods such as contrastive learning are used to learn audio-visual representations for downstream tasks. Focusing on surveillance data, we investigate two common limitations of audio-visual contrastive learning: false negatives and the minimal sufficient information bottleneck.

Background: Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL), that generates shockwaves through spark gap discharge between emitters, has been increasingly used to treat severely calcified coronary artery lesions. However, there is a question as to whether IVL has no electrical effects on endocardial tissues or cardiac implantable devices (CIEDs).
Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of IVL-induced intracardiac potentials on cardiac electrophysiology and CIEDs.

Background: Previous retrospective studies demonstrated both one-stage and two-stage video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for bilateral pulmonary nodules were safe and feasible in selected patients. However, prospective data is still lacking. The purpose of this trial is to prospectively compare the prognostic and perioperative outcomes between one-stage and two-stage VATS for synchronous bilateral pulmonary nodules.

Lightning strikes are a common source of disturbance in tropical forests, and a typical strike generates large quantities of dead wood. Lightning-damaged trees are a consistent resource for tropical saproxylic (i.e.
