The comproportionation reaction between Mn and Mn sources in the presence of 3,3-dimethylacrylic acid and azides has led to a new {Mn} molecular cluster with a spherical structure and dimensions of ∼2.2 nm, comparable in size to the smallest classical and magnetic nanoparticles.

Background: Repetitive head impacts (RHI) from contact sports can lead to long-term white matter injury visualized on FLAIR scans as white matter hyperintensities (WMH). The goal of this study was to preliminarily characterize the unique pattern and features of WMH in middle aged- to older adults with remote history of exposure to RHI from contact sports.
Method: 76 participants (38 with substantial RHI, 38 with minimal or no RHI) from the Boston University Alzheimer's Disease Research Center had a FLAIR MRI during their annual study visit.

By using a tight-binding model, first-principles calculations, and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, we theoretically demonstrate that the C76-Td-assembled two-dimensional (2D) honeycomb lattice is stable at room temperature and is resistant to mechanical deformation. We disclose that each C76-Td mimics a single carbon atom (geometrically and electronically); hence, it plays the role of one supercarbon. This inspires that the 2D material exhibits an exotic hourglass-like fermion at the Fermi level.

The ability to control the growth and orientation of neurites over long distances has significant implications for regenerative therapies and the development of physiologically relevant brain tissue models. In this study, the forces generated on magnetic nanoparticles internalised within intracellular endosomes are used to direct the orientation of neuronal outgrowth in cell cultures. Following differentiation, neurite orientation was observed after 3 days application of magnetic forces to human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells, and after 4 days application to rat cortical primary neurons.

Purpose: To explore the associations between myopia defocus dosage (MDD), aberration coefficients (primary spherical aberration and coma), and axial elongation in children undergoing orthokeratology (ortho-k) with back optic zone diameters (BOZD) of 5 mm and 6 mm over 2 years.
Methods: Data from 80 participants from two ortho-k studies were analyzed: 22 and 58 children wore lenses with 5-mm and 6-mm BOZD, respectively. Four MDD metrics were calculated from corneal topography data over a 5-mm pupil for the 1-month and 24-month visits: the circumferential, flat, steep, and volumetric MDD.
