The centrality dependence of the charged-particle multiplicity density at midrapidity in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=2.76 TeV is presented. The charged-particle density normalized per participating nucleon pair increases by about a factor of 2 from peripheral (70%-80%) to central (0%-5%) collisions. The centrality dependence is found to be similar to that observed at lower collision energies. The data are compared with models based on different mechanisms for particle production in nuclear collisions.

Objective: It takes significant time and energy to collect data on explicit networks. This study used graph machine learning to identify hidden networks and predict mental health conditions in the middle-aged and old.
Methods: Data came from the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing (2016-2018), with 2,000 participants aged 56 or more.

This study investigates disruptions in functional brain networks in Parkinson's Disease (PD), using advanced modeling and machine learning. Functional networks were constructed using the Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) model, which captures nonlinear and asymmetric dependencies between regions of interest (ROIs). Key network metrics and information-theoretic measures were extracted to classify PD patients and healthy controls (HC), using deep learning models, with explainability methods employed to identify influential features.

CD4 T cells have been established as central orchestrators of cellular and humoral immune responses to infection or vaccination. However, the need for CD4 T cell help to generate primary CD8 T cell responses is variable depending on the infectious agent or vaccine and yet consistently required for the recall of CD8 T cell memory responses or antibody responses. Given the deployment of new vaccine platforms such as nucleoside-modified mRNA vaccines, we sought to elucidate the requirement for CD4 T cell help in the induction of cellular and antibody responses to mRNA and adenovirus (Ad)-vectored vaccines against SARS-CoV-2.

Researches indicate that children with dyslexia are more likely to experience psychiatric symptoms throughout life compared to peers in the general population. Improving the classification of psychiatric symptoms in this population can be a valuable goal for strengthing therapeutic models. The current study aimed to evaluate the dynamic associations between internalizing and externalizing symptoms in children with dyslexia using network analysis.

Identifying critical edges in complex networks is a fundamental challenge in the study of complex networks. Traditional approaches tend to rely solely on either global information or local information. However, this dependence on a single information source fails to capture the multi-layered complexity of critical edges, often resulting in incomplete or inaccurate identification.
