We study time evolution in a simple model of de Sitter quantum gravity, namely, Jackiw-Teitelboim with a positive cosmological constant. We find that time evolution is isometric rather than unitary. The states that are projected out under time evolution correspond to initial conditions that crunch. Our findings suggest that knowledge of bulk physics, even on arbitrarily large timescales, is insufficient to deduce the de Sitter S matrix.

Metatranscriptomic time series insight into antibiotic resistance genes and mobile genetic elements in wastewater systems under antibiotic selective pressure.
BMC Microbiol
January 2025
Engineering Research Center of Health Emergency, Jiangsu Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Nanjing, 210009, China.
Background: Wastewater systems are usually considered antibiotic resistance hubs connecting human society and the natural environment. Antibiotic usage can increase the abundance of both ARGs (antibiotic resistance genes) and MGEs (mobile gene elements). Understanding the transcriptomic profiles of ARGs and MGEs remains a major research goal.

Recently we have found that mammals have an additional fragment of approximately 20 amino acids in Emx1 and a poly-(Ala)6-7 in Emx2, compared to other amniotes. It has been shown that Emx1 and Emx2 have synergistic actions in the brain development.

Due to the limited active sites and poor conductivity, the application of tungsten disulfide (WS) in alkaline water electrolysis remains a challenge. Herein, Ni-WS nanosheet arrays were in situ grown on the carbon fiber paper (Ni-WS/CFP) as an electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media, and the introduction degree of Ni can be regulated by adjusting the electrodeposition time. When the electrodeposition time is 3 min, Ni ions are doped into the lattice of WS, and by prolonging the electrodeposition time to 10 min, the nickel disulfide (NiS) crystal phase is generated to form NiS@WS heterojunction.

January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, Izmir Behçet Uz Training and Research Hospital, İzmir, Turkey.
Objective: This study aimed to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the literature on Brief Resolved Unexplained Event (BRUE) and its predecessor, Apparent Life-Threatening Event (ALTE), from 1988 to 2024, in order to identify research trends, collaborative networks, and areas of focus in this field.
Methods: We analyzed articles indexed in Scopus and Web of Science using various bibliometric indicators. The visualization of bibliometric networks was performed using VOSviewer and bibliometrix.
A branching model for intergenerational telomere length dynamics.
J Math Biol
January 2025
Institut universitaire de France (IUF), Paris, France.
We build and study an individual based model of the telomere length's evolution in a population across multiple generations. This model is a continuous time typed branching process, where the type of an individual includes its gamete mean telomere length and its age. We study its Malthusian's behaviour and provide numerical simulations to understand the influence of biologically relevant parameters.
