We use a computational model to investigate the emergence of interaction forces between pairs of intruders in a horizontally vibrated granular fluid. The time evolution of a pair of particles shows a maximum of the likelihood to find the pair at contact in the direction of shaking. This relative interaction is further studied by fixing the intruders in the simulation box where we identify effective mechanical forces and torques between particles and quantify an emergent long range attractive force as a function of the shaking relative angle, the amplitude, and the packing density of grains. We determine the local density and kinetic energy profiles of granular particles along the axis of the dimer to find no gradients in the density fields and additive gradients in the kinetic energies.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the long-term efficacy of the ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract (LIFT) procedure in treating high transsphincteric fistulas.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the success rate of LIFT treatment in 82 patients with high transsphincteric fistulas involving at least 1/3 of the external sphincter. This study was carried out across 2 centers from November 2009 to February 2023.

We present the results of a 1-year study that quantified salt levels in stormwater, soils, and plant tissues from 14 stormwater detention basins across Northern VA in an above-average snow year. We characterize (1) the level of salt stress plants experience, (2) the extent to which current plant communities feature salt tolerant species, and (3) the capacity of these species to phytoremediate soils and reduce the impacts of deicer and anti-icer use. Our results suggest that detention basin vegetation experience a range of salt stress levels that depend on drainage area type (roads: moderate to high > parking lots: low to moderate > pervious areas: none).

A new gene coding for an iron-containing enzyme was identified in the genome of Acinetobacter radioresistens. Bioinformatics analysis allowed the assignment of the protein to DyP peroxidases, due to the presence of conserved residues involved in heme binding and catalysis. Moreover, Ar-DyP is located in an operon coding also for other enzymes involved in iron uptake and regulation.

Parathyroid carcinoma is extremely rare, affecting 1% of cases of primary hyperparathyroidism. For this reason, management is poorly codified and requires expertise in specialized center. PC is genetically determined in a quarter to a third of cases, notably involving the CDC73 gene coding for parafibromin.
