We study spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC) in a one-dimensional photonic crystal designed to operate in a doubly resonant configuration, where the frequencies of the pump and the generated photons are both tuned to band-edge resonances. We investigate the spectral correlations of the generated photons as a function of the spectral width of the pump, and demonstrate that the SPDC generation rate can scale with the fifth power of the structure length in the limit of a quasi-continuous-wave pump. We show that such an unusual scaling can be simply connected with the scaling of second-harmonic generation in the same structure, illustrating the general link between spontaneous and stimulated parametric nonlinear processes.

Effects on maternal and pregnancy outcomes of first-trimester malaria infection among nulliparous women from Kenya, Zambia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of malaria infection during the first trimester of pregnancy on adverse outcomes for mothers and babies in Kenya, Zambia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
- Using rigorous testing methods, researchers found specific risks such as higher rates of preterm birth and anemia later in pregnancy among affected women.
- The findings suggest that first-trimester malaria is linked to increased prevalence of anemia and highlight the need for more research on its impact on other pregnancy complications like preterm birth and low birth weight.

To investigate the relationship between sociodemographic factors, musculoskeletal pain and its characteristics, and the type of primary health care received with self-reported disability. This is a cross-sectional study, interviewing individuals selected from spontaneous demand for health care in two types of care: health center and family health unit. Disability was investigated using the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) 2.

Background: Patients who achieve return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) may re-arrest. This phenomenon has not been sufficiently investigated. The aim of this study was to examine the immediate (1-min) and short-term (20-min) risks of re-arrest in IHCA.

Background: While oral minoxidil (OM) has been associated with pericardial effusion (PE), its etiology is presently inconclusive.
Aims: We characterized patient- and drug-related factors across reports from the United States Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) for PE and OM.
Methods: Our observation period spanned 18.
The indistinguishable photon-pair sources are valuable in many quantum information applications, such as quantum microscopy, quantum synchronization, and quantum metrology. Based on cascaded sum-frequency generation (SFG) and spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) processes, we propose and demonstrate a scheme for the generation of spatially separated broadband indistinguishable photon pairs in the telecom band by using only one piece of a fiber-pigtailed periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide in a modified Sagnac loop. The measured joint spectral intensity of the generated entangled photon pairs is 7.
