Controlling π-electrons with delocalized character is one of the fundamental issues in femtosecond and attosecond chemistry. Localization of π-electron rotation by using laser pulses is expected to play an essential role in nanoscience. The π-electron rotation created at a selected aromatic ring of a single molecule induces a local intense electromagnetic field, which is a new type of ultrafast optical control functioning. We propose a quantum localization of coherent π-electron angular momentum in (P)-2,2'-biphenol, which is a simple, covalently linked chiral aromatic ring chain molecule. The localization considered here consists of sequential two steps: the first step is to localize the π-electron angular momentum at a selected ring of the two benzene rings, and the other is to maintain the localization. Optimal control theory was used for obtaining the optimized electric fields of linearly polarized laser pulses to realize the localization. The optimal electric fields and the resultant coherent electronic dynamics are analyzed.

Quantitative analysis of I-iomazenil single-photon emission computed tomography findings from patients with infantile epileptic spasm syndrome.
Brain Dev
December 2024
Division of Neurology, Saitama Children's Medical Center, 1-2 Chuo-ku Saitama-shi, Saitama 330-8777, Japan.
Purpose: This study aimed to elucidate the distribution of intracranial gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors in patients with infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) of normal brain MRI findings using I-iomazenil single-photon emission computed tomography (IMZ-SPECT).
Methods: This retrospective study compared IMZ-SPECT images from 20 patients with IESS of unknown etiology with normal brain MRI (unknown IESS group) and 23 patients with developmentally normal epilepsy of the same age (developmentally normal group). A three-dimensional stereotactic region of interest (ROI) template was used to divide the brain into 24 segments (left and right callosomarginal, precentral, central, parietal, angular, temporal, posterior cerebral, pericallosal, lenticular nucleus, thalamus, hippocampus, and cerebellum), and the mean accumulation of I-iomazenil in each ROI was calculated.

Background: This study aims to digitalize surgical maneuvers in ESS using a motion capture system under standardized conditions provided by 3D printed-sinus models.
Methodology: Forty-seven otolaryngologists performed ESS on 3D printed models manufactured from computed tomography (CT) images of actual patients. Participants were classified to 3 groups according to the objective structured technical skills assessment score.
Uniform dipole resonance and suppressed quadrupole resonance for constant transmittivity full phase control plasmonic metasurfaces.
Sci Rep

Department of Electrical Engineering, Centre for NEMS and Nanophotonics (CNNP), Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai, 600036, India.
Transmission-type plasmonic phase metasurfaces utilizing the Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) phase require constant transmittivity with complete phase variation from 0 to 2π. Usually, this is achieved by rotating metallic nanoparticles in an otherwise uniform lattice arrangement. However, this rotation and the chosen lattice structure cause a significant change in the transmittivity, resulting in a lower intensity of light with certain phases and a higher intensity for other phases.

Introduction: Guided surgery for immediate anterior implants aims to reduce the time required for aesthetic and functional immediate loading. However, the limited surface area of anterior teeth for guide stabilization may affect the accuracy of implant positioning. This in vitro study evaluated the effect of the number of supporting teeth on the accuracy of immediate implants in the maxillary central incisor region.

Introduction: Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is linked to memory complaints and disruptions in certain brain regions identified by molecular imaging and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging studies. However, it remains unclear how these regions interact to contribute to both subjective and potential objective memory issues in SCD.
Methods: To address this gap, task-based imaging studies are essential.
