Interference patterns provide direct measurement of coherent propagation of matter waves in quantum systems. Superfluidity in Bose-Einstein condensates of excitons can enable long-range ballistic exciton propagation and can lead to emerging long-scale interference patterns. Indirect excitons (IXs) are formed by electrons and holes in separated layers. The theory predicts that the reduced IX recombination enables IX superfluid propagation over macroscopic distances. Here, we present dislocation-like phase singularities in interference patterns produced by condensate of IXs. We analyze how exciton vortices and skyrmions should appear in the interference experiments and show that the observed interference dislocations are not associated with these phase defects. We show that the observed interference dislocations originate from the moiré effect in combined interference patterns of propagating condensate matter waves. The interference dislocations are formed by the IX matter waves ballistically propagating over macroscopic distances. The long-range ballistic IX propagation is the evidence for IX condensate superfluidity.

What is the appropriate revascularisation approach in traumatic popliteal artery injury?
J Orthop Sci
November 2024
Department of Trauma Centre, Shonan Kamakura General Hospital, 1370-1 Okamoto, Kamakura, Kanagawa, Japan. Electronic address:
Article Synopsis
- Popliteal artery injury (PAI) can occur alongside other injuries like proximal tibial fractures or knee dislocations, highlighting the need for tailored revascularization strategies.
- A study from 2013 to 2023 analyzed 21 cases of PAI, examining surgical methods and their impact on long-term knee stability.
- The findings suggest that the choice of revascularization technique should vary based on associated injuries to avoid complications during definitive surgery.
Cast-OFF 2: one week versus three to five weeks of plaster cast immobilization for non-or minimally displaced distal radius fractures, a stepped wedge cluster randomized controlled trial.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of shortening the cast immobilization period for distal radius fractures (DRF) from 3-5 weeks to 1 week followed by gradual mobilization.
- Conducted in various trauma centers, it involved randomly assigning hospitals to either the usual care or the shorter immobilization method, with patients aged 18 to 85 included if they had isolated, non- or minimally displaced DRF.
- Results showed no significant differences in functional outcomes, pain scores, or patient satisfaction between the two groups, suggesting that the shorter immobilization period may be equally effective as the conventional approach.

We are entering an era of re-electrification, seeking high-power density electrical machines with minimal resource use. Significant performance gains in electrical machines have been achieved through precise manufacturing processes, including the shaping/cutting of soft magnetic materials. However, most studies have evaluated magnetic performance at a macro level, focusing on components, while the fundamental mechanisms, e.

Introduction: Hinge knee joint prosthesis are utilized in a variety of surgical scenarios, including complex primary, revision, salvage surgeries, and radical resection of tumor's. Link's Endo-model Hinged Knee Prosthesis is a newer design that includes ramped tibial components for controlled pivot point motion during flexion and an anti-dislocation feature to prevent prosthesis dislocation..

Bony changes such as glenoid bone defects and Hill-Sachs lesions are responsible for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations. With the development of arthroscopic techniques as well as arthroscopic surgical instruments, arthroscopic repair of bony structures has become an important surgical procedure for the treatment of recurrent shoulder dislocation. In this Technical Note, we used screws to fill Hill-Sachs lesions and autologous iliac bone grafts combined with soft tissue to repair the glenoid bone defects.
