We demonstrate the time-reversed process of nondegenerate three-wave parametric amplification from three distinct sources in the fully nonlinear regime using a Josephson amplifier. In the reverse process, coherent attenuation, signal and idler beams destructively interfere in the presence of a pump to generate additional pump photons. This effect is observed through the symmetric phase-dependent amplification and attenuation of the signal and idler beams and, in the depleted pump regime, through the phase-dependent modulation of the amplifier gain, directly probing the enhancement of the pump. Results are found to be in good agreement with theory.

Purpose: We describe an atypical presentation of an 11-year-old female with enhanced S-cone syndrome (ESCS).
Methods: Case report. The patient underwent a thorough ophthalmic examination and investigations such as colour fundus photography, optical coherence tomography, fundus autofluorescence, fluorescein and indocyanine angiography, an electroretinogram and genetic testing.
Visual loss following secondary retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a rare complication of cytotoxic chemotherapy. Few cases of docetaxel- and/or platinum-induced retinal toxicity have been reported. Routine ocular examination of patients undergoing chemotherapy is required for early recognition and intervention of ocular toxicity.

X-ray dark-field imaging highlights sample structures through contrast generated by sub-resolution features within the inspected volume. Quantifying dark-field signals generally involves multiple exposures for phase retrieval, separating contributions from scattering, refraction, and attenuation. Here, we introduce an approach for non-interferometric X-ray dark-field imaging that presents a single-parameter representation of the sample.

Background: No prior study has examined the mutual association of long-term outdoor ozone (O) concentration and physical activity (PA) with emotional and behavioral problems (EBPs) in children and adolescents. This study aims to investigate the association between long-term outdoor O concentration and the risk of EBPs in children and adolescents and further explore whether increased PA levels modify this association.
Methods: Data were obtained from the 2020 wave follow-up examination of an ongoing prospective cohort study (COHERENCE project) in Guangzhou, China.
