We examine two-level systems which undergo an instantaneous change in the energy level differences due to the application of an external protocol. In particular the behavior of the work distribution as well as the probability of second-law violations as the thermodynamic limit, and separately the quasistatic limit, is approached are investigated.

A Comparative Study Between Posterolateral Lumbar Fusion and Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion for Degenerative Lumbar Spondylolisthesis.

December 2024
Department of Orthopedics, Sri Devaraj Urs Academy of Higher Education and Research, Kolar, IND.
Introduction Degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS) is a degenerative condition characterized by subluxation of one vertebral body anterior to the adjacent inferior vertebral body with an intact pars. Conservative treatment approaches, such as steroid injections and physical therapy, may work well at first, but in resistant situations, surgery is frequently necessary. Posterolateral lumbar fusion (PLF) has been widely used, but transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) offers theoretical advantages such as improved alignment and enhanced fusion rates.

Genetic diagnosis of rare diseases requires accurate identification and interpretation of genomic variants. Clinical and molecular scientists from 37 expert centers across Europe created the Solve-Rare Diseases Consortium (Solve-RD) resource, encompassing clinical, pedigree and genomic rare-disease data (94.5% exomes, 5.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

Proximity labeling (PL) has emerged as a powerful technique for the in situ elucidation of biomolecular interaction networks. However, PL methods generally rely on single-biological-hierarchy control of spatial localization at the labeling site, which limits their application in multi-tiered biological systems. Here, we introduced another enzymatic reaction upstream of an enzyme-based PL reaction and targeted the two enzymes to markers indicating different biological hierarchies, establishing a two-level spatially localized proximity labeling (PL) platform for in situ molecular measurement and manipulation.

Open Heart
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Amsterdam UMC, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Background: Visual assessment of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is time-consuming, influenced by reader experience and prone to interobserver variability. This study evaluated a novel algorithm for coronary stenosis quantification (atherosclerosis imaging quantitative CT, AI-QCT).
Methods: The study included 208 patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing CCTA in Perfusion Imaging and CT Coronary Angiography With Invasive Coronary Angiography-1.
Exploring Outcomes of Tibial Rigid Intramedullary Nailing in Adolescent Patients.
J Orthop Trauma
January 2025
Geisinger Health System, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Danville, PA.
Objectives: To explore outcomes after tibial rigid intramedullary nailing (RIMN) in skeletally immature patients, with a focus on post-operative complications and iatrogenic changes in tibial slope due to anterior physeal arrest.
Methods: Design: Retrospective case series.
Setting: A large, tertiary care health system in the rural Mid-Atlantic United States, including two Level 1 trauma centers and one Level 2 trauma center.
