Flow coefficients ν(n) for n=2, 3, 4, characterizing the anisotropic collective flow in Au+Au collisions at √s(NN)=200 GeV, are measured relative to event planes Ψ(n), determined at large rapidity. We report ν(n) as a function of transverse momentum and collision centrality, and study the correlations among the event planes of different order n. The ν(n) are well described by hydrodynamic models which employ a Glauber Monte Carlo initial state geometry with fluctuations, providing additional constraining power on the interplay between initial conditions and the effects of viscosity as the system evolves. This new constraint can serve to improve the precision of the extracted shear viscosity to entropy density ratio η/s.

Background: Motor vehicle collisions (MVC) continue to be a leading cause of mortality for youth in the United States. Since 2010, seven states have revoked mandatory laws that suspended licenses for underage alcohol use, also known as use/lose laws. This study analyzed whether each state's policy change was associated with increased youth MVC mortality.

Background: Fall injuries resulting from trips are a major health concern. Virtual reality (VR) offers an effective way of training obstacle avoidance while walking due to its ability to provide safe and meaningful real-time feedback during rehabilitation. This proof-of-concept study examined the benefit of providing physical feedback during obstacle avoidance gait training using VR.

Background: The incidence and risk factors for sport-related concussion (SRC) associated with contact and collision invasion sports (CCIS) in female youth are unclear.
Objectives: This systematic review aimed to identify (i) the incidence of and (ii) risk factors for SRC in female youth athletes playing CCIS.
Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, SPORTDiscus and ProQuest to 8 May, 2024 was conducted.
Genomic collision at the LIMS-1 locus increases risk of cellular mediated allograft rejection in heart transplanted recipients.

Genomic collision at the LIM and senescent cell antigen-like-containing domain protein 1 (LIMS1) locus between donor and heart recipient was examined for the association with diagnosis of acute cellular or antibody-mediated allograft rejection, ACR or ABMR, respectively. In this single center retrospective study, 129 heart transplanted patients and donors were genotyped for the LIMS1 rs893403 variant, where the G-allele is in almost complete linkage disequilibrium with a loss of function deletion. A total of 14 cases with genomic collision (recipient genotype GG and donor genotype AA/AG) were identified.
