An absolute measurement of the Λ_{c}^{+} lifetime is reported using Λ_{c}^{+}→pK^{-}π^{+} decays in events reconstructed from data collected by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy electron-positron collider. The total integrated luminosity of the data sample, which was collected at center-of-mass energies at or near the ϒ(4S) resonance, is 207.2 fb^{-1}. The result, τ(Λ_{c}^{+})=203.20±0.89±0.77 fs, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic, is the most precise measurement to date and is consistent with previous determinations.

Valorization and utilization of brewers' spent grain (BSG) are of great interest in terms of reducing food waste and promoting more sustainable food systems. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the nutritional value of upcycled barley/rice proteins (BRP) extracted from BSG and compare this with pea proteins (PP). A randomized, cross-over, double-blind controlled trial was conducted with twelve participants (age: 24 ± 2.

Background: Scapulothoracic orientation, especially scapular internal rotation (SIR) may influence range of motion in reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) and is subjected to body posture. Clinical measurements of SIR rely on apical bony landmarks, which depend on changes in scapulothoracic orientation, while radiographic measurements are often limited by the restricted field of view (FOV) in CT scans. Therefore, the goal of this study was (1) to determine whether the use of CT scans with a limited FOV to measure SIR is reliable and (2) if a clinical measurement could be a valuable alternative.

The diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis can be challenging due to its heterogeneity in clinical presentation and overlap with other neurological disorders. Diagnosis early in the disease course can improve outcomes as timely interventions can slow disease progression. An evolving awareness of disease genotypes and phenotypes and new diagnostic criteria, such as the recent Gold Coast criteria, could expedite diagnosis.

Statement Of Problem: Whether color changes in resin nanoceramic (RNC) restorations can occur because of material and adhesive interface degradation is unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the color of RNCs submitted to surface treatments, cementation, and aging.
Material And Methods: RNC specimens (N=120) were produced with a thickness of 0.

We study the decay rate θ(a) that characterizes the late time exponential decay of the first-passage probability density F_{a}(t|0)∼e^{-θ(a)t} of a diffusing particle in a one dimensional confining potential U(x), starting from the origin, to a position located at a>0. For general confining potential U(x) we show that θ(a), a measure of the barrier (located at a) crossing rate, has three distinct behaviors as a function of a, depending on the tail of U(x) as x→-∞. In particular, for potentials behaving as U(x)∼|x| when x→-∞, we show that a novel freezing transition occurs at a critical value a=a_{c}, i.
