A novel tuning strategy of nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS)-based filters is proposed based on the modal control of mechanically coupled NEMS arrays. This is done by adjusting separately addressed distributed actuation and detection configurations proportionally to desired modal vectors. This control scheme enhances the global output signal, raising the power handling of the filter on all channels. Although the modal control of 1-D arrays exhibits narrow-band responses with adjustable resonance frequency, its application to 2-D arrays produces filters with both adjustable bandwidth and central frequency. One possible realization scheme is suggested by using electrostatically driven coupled NEMS arrays whose transduction gains are adjusted by changing the electrodes¿ bias voltages. Dispersion effects on both 1-D array and 2-D array frequency response are analytically expressed using eigenvalues perturbation theory. Based on these results, we show how to reduce their impact by appropriately choosing the coupling stiffness and the number of resonators.

Background: A significant proportion of individuals preserve cognitive function despite meeting neuropathological criteria for Alzheimer's disease (AD) at autopsy, known as cognitive resilience. We aimed to define the molecular and cellular signatures of cognitive resilience against AD.
Method: We integrated multi-modal data from the Religious Order Study and Memory and Aging Project (ROSMAP), including bulk (n = 631) and multi-regional single nucleus (n = 48) RNA sequencing.

Background: Numerous studies have identified AD-associated molecular and cellular changes to the cortex using single nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) and, to a lesser extent, single nucleus ATAC-seq (snATAC-seq), applied to millions of cells across hundreds of donors. It has proven challenging, however, to determine whether changes are consistent because of differences in cohort selection, reported clinical metadata, data pre-processing, cellular taxonomy construction/mapping, and analytical strategies across studies.
Method: We uniformly re-processed 10 publicly available datasets (Table 1) that had applied snRNA-seq to 4.

Unlabelled: The performance of the Liofilchem Compact Antimicrobial Susceptibility Panel (ComASP) Cefiderocol was evaluated in a multicenter study. Enterobacterales, , and clinical isolates and challenge isolates were tested by three and one sites, respectively. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) testing was performed by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) broth microdilution and ComASP, which included two reading endpoints (CLSI read; MIC is the first well in which reduction of growth is <1 mm or light haze/faint turbidity] and ComASP [ComASP read; MIC is the first well at which 100% inhibition of growth occurs]).

Metastasis represents a stage in which the therapeutic objective changes from curing disease to prolonging survival, as detection typically occurs at advanced stages. Technologies for the early identification of disease would enable treatment at a lower disease burden and heterogeneity. Herein, we investigate the vascular dynamics within a synthetic metastatic niche as a potential marker of disease progression.

The congruency sequence effect (CSE) refers to the reduction in the congruency effect in the current trial after an incongruent trial compared with a congruent trial. Although previous studies widely suggested that CSE was observed only in the modality repeat condition, few studies have reported that CSE could also appear in the modality switch condition. However, it remains unclear whether these conflicting findings were caused by partial repetition effects under modality transition conditions.
