This study aims to design an all-optical transistor based on tunneling of light through frustrated total internal reflection. Under total internal reflection, the electromagnetic wave penetrates into the lower index medium. If a medium with high refractive index is placed close to the boundary of the first one, a portion of light leaks into the second medium. The penetrated electromagnetic field distribution can be influenced by another coherent light in the low refractive index medium via interference, leading to light amplification. Upon this technique, we introduce coherent all-optical transistors based on photonic crystal structures. Subsequently, we inspect the shortest pulse which is amplified by the designed system and also its terahertz repetition rate. We will show that such a system can operate in a cascade form. Operating in terahertz range and the amplification efficiency of around 20 are of advantages of this system.

Procedural Prescription Denials and Risk of Acute Care Utilization and Spending Among Medicaid Patients.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Clinical Product Development, Waymark, San Francisco, California.
Importance: Rising prescription medication costs under Medicaid have led to increased procedural prescription denials by health plans. The effect of unresolved denials on chronic condition exacerbation and subsequent acute care utilization remains unclear.
Objective: To examine whether procedural prescription denials are associated with increased net spending through downstream acute care utilization among Medicaid patients not obtaining prescribed medication following a denial.
Community Racial and Ethnic Representation Among Physicians in US Internal Medicine Residency Programs.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Ronald O. Perelman Department of Emergency Medicine, New York University Langone Health, New York.
Importance: Increasing underrepresented in medicine (URIM) physicians among historically underserved communities helps reduce health disparities. The concordance of URIM physicians with their communities improves access to care, particularly for American Indian and Alaska Native, Black, and Hispanic or Latinx individuals.
Objectives: To explore county-level racial and ethnic representation of US internal medicine (IM) residents, examine racial and ethnic concordance between residents and their communities, and assess whether representation varies by presence of academic institutions or underserved settings.
Effects of blood flow restriction on internal and external training load metrics during acute and chronic short-term repeated-sprint training in team-sport athletes.
J Sports Sci
January 2025
Physical Activity, Sport and Exercise (PHASE) Research Group, School of Allied Health (Exercise Science), Murdoch University, Perth, Australia.
This study examined internal, external training loads, internal:external ratios, and aerobic adaptations for acute and short-term chronic repeated-sprint training (RST) with blood flow restriction (BFR). Using randomised crossover (Experiment A) and between-subject (Experiment B) designs, 15 and 24 semi-professional Australian footballers completed two and nine RST sessions, respectively. Sessions comprised three sets of 5-7 × 5-second sprints and 25 seconds recovery, with continuous BFR (45% arterial occlusion pressure) or without (Non-BFR).

J Nephrol
January 2025
Department of Nephrology, Beaumont Hospital, Dublin, Ireland.
Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused primarily by pathogenic variants in the PKD1 and PKD2 genes. Although the type of ADPKD variant can influence disease severity, rare, hypomorphic PKD1 variants have also been reported to modify disease severity or cause biallelic ADPKD. This study examines whether rare, additional, potentially protein-altering, non-pathogenic PKD1 variants contribute to ADPKD phenotypic outcomes.

Objectives: To determine the features of rheumatoid pulmonary nodules and the factors associated with nodule progression in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Methods: Between January 2010 and September 2018, RA patients with at least one chest computed tomography (CT) were included. Two experienced radiologists examined chest CTs.
