We performed resistance measurements on [Formula: see text]Cu Te with [Formula: see text] in the presence of in-plane applied magnetic fields, revealing a resistance anisotropy that can be induced at a temperature far below the structural and magnetic zero-field transition temperatures. The observed resistance anisotropy strongly depends on the field orientation with respect to the crystallographic axes, as well as on the field-cooling history. Our results imply a correlation between the observed features and the low-temperature magnetic order. Hysteresis in the angle-dependence indicates a strong pinning of the magnetic order within a temperature range that varies with the Cu content. The resistance anisotropy vanishes at different temperatures depending on whether an external magnetic field or a remnant field is present: the closing temperature is higher in the presence of an external field. For [Formula: see text] the resistance anisotropy closes above the structural transition, at the same temperature at which the zero-field short-range magnetic order disappears and the sample becomes paramagnetic. Thus we suggest that under an external magnetic field the resistance anisotropy mirrors the magnetic order parameter. We discuss similarities to nematic order observed in other iron pnictide materials.

Background: Referred to as the "forgotten chamber," the right ventricle (RV) is now widely acknowledged as a significant factor, particularly in certain cardiovascular pathologies. Despite historically being undervalued in comparison to the left ventricle, the RV function is deemed crucial in determining patient outcomes following mitral valve (MV) surgery. In the context of MV surgery, it is important to note that the RV is highly susceptible to dysfunction before, during, and after the surgical procedure.

High-resolution awake mouse functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) remains challenging despite extensive efforts to address motion-induced artifacts and stress. This study introduces an implantable radio frequency (RF) surface coil design that minimizes image distortion caused by the air/tissue interface of mouse brains while simultaneously serving as a headpost for fixation during scanning. Furthermore, this study provides a thorough acclimation method used to accustom animals to the MRI environment minimizing motion-induced artifacts.

Background: biomarkers are essential in order to make a diagnosis with a high level of accuracy in patients with cognitive and behavior complaints. However, molecular imaging biomarkers not always provide an answer in daily clinical practice.

Methods: retrospective and descriptive study in patients with Amyloid PET (APscans) implemented according to rational use of this technic, between January 2019-November 2023 in Neurology Department, Infanta Leonor Hospital, Madrid, Spain.

Background: The importance of detecting amyloid β (Aβ) in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease has markedly increased following the approval of Lecanemab, a disease-modifying drug. MRI is a non-invasive and less expensive rather than amyloid PET as gold standard for Aβ biomarker, but its clinical ability to detect Aβ has not been demonstrated. MRI phase information reflects paramagnetic substance including iron associated with Aβ aggregation.

Background: Limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy neuropathological change (LATE-NC) is common in older adults and has been associated with substantial cognitive impairment. However, the association of LATE-NC with brain morphometry has not been thoroughly investigated. In this work, we examined the association of LATE-NC with brain morphometric anomalies using deformation-based morphometry (DBM) in a large community cohort of older adults that came to autopsy (N=897).
