Magnetic drug delivery as a potential method to treat diseases such as cancer tumors has attracted the attention of many researchers. One of the problems in conventional and ineffective therapies is the spread of drug in the circulatory system. The method of magnetic drug delivery aims at directing the drug to the localized area of disease by using a magnetic field. Considering the effects of parameters such as non-Newtonian viscosity, oscillatory input, motion and the presence of atherosclerosis, the present study examines the magnetic drug delivery, which is under the influence of magnetic field, in a 90-degree bent in three situations of without atherosclerosis, a moderate atherosclerosis of 45% and severe atherosclerosis of 75% in two states of fixed vessel and moving vessel arising from the expansion and contraction of the heart. The magnetic field is in the range of [Formula: see text] T, and the diameter of magnetic particles varies from 1 to 6 μm. The comparison of particle absorption percentage for different atherosclerosis revealed that the presence of atherosclerosis increases the value of particle absorption percentage. The results of comparison between fixed vessel and moving vessel indicate that the percentage of particle absorption is higher when the vessel is moving. In the presence of magnetic field, the maximum value of absorption percentage is 76.93% for the moving vessel with 75% atherosclerosis and the particles with the diameter of 6 μm and this value is equal to 75.65% when the vessel is considered fixed. Regardless of the size of particle, this value is approximately 15.8% and 3% for the moving vessel and the fixed vessel, respectively, when no magnetic force is applied to the vessel.

This paper presents a novel investigation of a magnetic sensor that employs Fano/Tamm resonance within the photonic band gap of a one-dimensional crystal structure. The design incorporates a thin layer of gold (Au) alongside a periodic arrangement of Tantalum pentoxide ([Formula: see text]) and Cesium iodide ([Formula: see text]) in the configuration [Formula: see text]. We utilized the transfer matrix method in conjunction with the Drude model to analyze the formation of Fano/Tamm states and the permittivity of the metallic layer, respectively.

The sharing of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data is of utmost importance in the field, as it enables a deeper understanding of facial nerve-related pathologies. However, there is a significant lack of multi-modal neuroimaging databases specifically focused on these conditions, which hampers our comprehensive knowledge of the neural foundations of facial paralysis. To address this critical gap and propel advancements in this area, we have released the Multimodal Neuroimaging Dataset of Meige Syndrome, Facial Paralysis, and Healthy Controls (MND-MFHC).

Understanding the ligand field interactions in lanthanide-containing magnetic molecular complexes is of paramount importance for understanding their magnetic properties, and simple models for rationalizing their effects are much desired. In this work, the equivalence between electrostatic models, which derive their results from calculating the electrostatic interaction energy of the charge density of the 4f electrons in an electrostatic potential representing the ligands, and the common quantum mechanical effective spin Hamiltonian in the space of the ground multiplet is formulated in detail. This enables the construction of an electrostatic potential for any given ligand field Hamiltonian and discusses the effects of the ligand field interactions in terms of an interaction of a generalized 4f charge density with the electrostatic potential.
