The shape sensitivity of Pd catalysts in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions is studied using nanocrystals enclosed by well-defined surface facets. The catalytic performance of Pd nanocrystals with cubic, cuboctahedral and octahedral morphologies are compared. Superior catalytic reactivity is observed for Pd NCs with {100} surface facets compared to {111} facets. The origin of the enhanced reactivity associated with a cubic morphology is related to the leaching susceptibility of the nanocrystals. Molecular oxygen plays a key role in facilitating the leaching of Pd atoms from the surface of the nanocrystals. The interaction of O2 with Pd is itself facet-dependent, which in turn gives rise to more efficient leaching from {100} facets, compared to {111} facets under the reaction conditions.

Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a lipoprotein with potent atherogenic and thrombogenic potential. Its role in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) combined with three-vessel disease (TVD) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between Lp(a) levels and the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with ACS combined with TVD.

We present a comprehensive analysis of the optical attributes of graphene sheets with charge carriers residing on a curved substrate. In particular, we focus on the fascinating case of Beltrami geometry and provide an explicit parametrization for this curved two-dimensional surface. By employing the massless Dirac description that is characteristic of graphene, we investigate the impact of the curved geometry on the optical properties within the sample.

Caregivers' feeding practices shape their child's eating patterns and subsequent health. Research shows that sensitive feeding is linked to healthy development and self-regulation but depends on caregiver responsiveness to infant needs and appetite cues. Responsive feeding (RF) is influenced both by characteristics of the caregiver and expressiveness of the infant.

As cold-blooded vertebrates, fish are sensitive to environmental changes. The outcome of pathogen infections in fish therefore is highly shaped by hypoxia. The epigenetic regulation of competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) bridging non-coding RNAs and mRNAs represents a promising mechanism modulating antibacterial response plus environmental stress.

The rise in minimally invasive procedures has created a demand for efficient and reliable planning software to predict intra- and post-operative outcomes. Surrogate modelling has shown promise, but challenges remain, particularly in cardiovascular applications, due to the complexity of parametrising anatomical structures and the need for large training datasets. This study aims to apply statistical shape modelling and machine learning for predicting stent deployment in real time using patient-specific models.
