We numerically investigate the heterogeneity in cluster sizes in the two-dimensional Ising model and verify its scaling form recently proposed in the context of percolation problems [Phys. Rev. E 84, 010101(R) (2011)]. The scaling exponents obtained via the finite-size scaling analysis are shown to be consistent with theoretical values of the fractal dimension d(f) and the Fisher exponent τ for the cluster distribution. We also point out that strong finite-size effects exist due to the geometric nature of the cluster-size heterogeneity.

Background And Objective: It has been believed that polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) such as torsades de pointes (TdP) seen in patients with long QT syndromes is triggered by creating early afterdepolarization (EAD)-mediated triggered activity (TA). Although the mechanisms creating the TA have been studied intensively, characteristics of the arrhythmogenic (torsadogenic) substrates that link EAD developments to TA formation are still not well understood.
Methods: Computer simulations of excitation propagation in a homogenous two-dimensional ventricular tissue with an anisotropic conduction property were performed to characterize torsadogenic substrates that potentially form TA.

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is a critical non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) target for treating depression. However, the alterations of brain activations post-intervention remain inconsistent and the clinical moderators that could improve symptomatic effectiveness are unclear. The study aim was to systematically review the effectiveness of NIBS on depressive symptoms targeting PFC in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies.

A chemical reaction and its reaction environment are intrinsically linked, especially within the confines of narrow cellular spaces. Traditional models of chemical reactions often use differential equations with concentration as the primary variable, neglecting the density heterogeneity in the solution and the interaction between the reaction and its environment. We model the interaction between a chemical reaction and its environment within a geometrically confined space, such as inside a cell, by representing the environment through the size of molecular clusters.

Background: The purpose of this study was to elucidate the relationship between distinct brain regions and molecular subtypes in glioblastoma (GB), focusing on integrating modern statistical tools and molecular profiling to better understand the heterogeneity of Isocitrate Dehydrogenase wild-type (IDH-wt) gliomas.
Methods: This retrospective study comprised 441 patients diagnosed with new IDH-wt glioma between 2009 and 2020 at Heidelberg University Hospital. The diagnostic process included preoperative magnetic resonance imaging and molecular characterization, encompassing IDH-status determination and subclassification, through DNA-methylation profiling.

Embedded correlated wavefunction (ECW) theory is a powerful tool for studying ground- and excited-state reaction mechanisms and associated energetics in heterogeneous catalysis. Several factors are important to obtaining reliable ECW energies, critically the construction of consistent active spaces (ASs) along reaction pathways when using a multireference correlated wavefunction (CW) method that relies on a subset of orbital spaces in the configuration interaction expansion to account for static electron correlation, e.g.
