Correlation between polygenic risk scores of depression and cortical morphology networks.

J Psychiatry Neurosci

January 2025

From the Department of Psychiatry, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, China (Gong, Wang, Nie, Ma, Zhou, Deng, Xie, Lyu, Chen, Kang, Liu); the Taikang Center for Life and Medical Sciences, Wuhan University, Wuhan, China (Liu)

Background: Cortical morphometry is an intermediate phenotype that is closely related to the genetics and onset of major depressive disorder (MDD), and cortical morphometric networks are considered more relevant to disease mechanisms than brain regions. We sought to investigate changes in cortical morphometric networks in MDD and their relationship with genetic risk in healthy controls.

Methods: We recruited healthy controls and patients with MDD of Han Chinese descent.

Pentafluoroorthotellurate Uncovered: Theoretical Perspectives on an Extremely Electronegative Group.

Inorg Chem

January 2025

The pentafluoroorthotellurate group (-OTeF, teflate) exhibits high electron-withdrawing properties. Indeed, it is often used as a bulky substitute for fluoride due to its high chemical stability and larger size, which reduces its tendency to act as a bridging ligand. These characteristics make it a valuable ligand in synthetic chemistry, facilitating the preparation of molecular structures analogous to polymeric fluoride-based compounds.

Momentum tunnelling between nanoscale liquid flows.

Nat Nanotechnol

January 2025

Laboratoire de Physique de l'Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, France.

The world of nanoscales in fluidics is the frontier where the continuum of fluid mechanics meets the atomic, and even quantum, nature of matter. While water dynamics remains largely classical under extreme confinement, several experiments have recently reported coupling between water transport and the electronic degrees of freedom of the confining materials. This avenue prompts us to reconsider nanoscale hydrodynamic flows under the perspective of interacting excitations, akin to condensed matter frameworks.

The open nature of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) renders them an easy target to malicious code propagation, posing a significant and persistent threat to their security. Various mathematical models have been studied in recent literature for understanding the dynamics and control of the propagation of malicious codes in WSNs. However, due to the inherent randomness and uncertainty present in WSNs, stochastic modeling approach is essential for a comprehensive understanding of the propagation of malicious codes in WSNs.

Quantum memory at nonzero temperature in a thermodynamically trivial system.

Nat Commun

January 2025

Department of Physics and Center for Theory of Quantum Matter, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO, USA.

Passive error correction protects logical information forever (in the thermodynamic limit) by updating the system based only on local information and few-body interactions. A paradigmatic example is the classical two-dimensional Ising model: a Metropolis-style Gibbs sampler retains the sign of the initial magnetization (a logical bit) for thermodynamically long times in the low-temperature phase. Known models of passive quantum error correction similarly exhibit thermodynamic phase transitions to a low-temperature phase wherein logical qubits are protected by thermally stable topological order.
