We consider a system of noninteracting Brownian particles on a line with a steplike initial condition, and we investigate the behavior of the local time at the origin at large times. We compute the mean and the variance of the local time, and we show that the memory effects are governed by the Fano factor associated with the initial condition. For the uniform initial condition, we show that the probability distribution of the local time admits a large deviation form, and we compute the corresponding large deviation functions for the annealed and quenched averaging schemes. The two resulting large deviation functions are very different. Our analytical results are supported by extensive numerical simulations.

Fires are increasingly affecting tropical biomes, where landscape-fire interactions remain understudied. We investigate the fire-proneness-the likelihood of a land use or land cover (LULC) type burning more or less than expected based on availability-in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest (AF). This biodiversity hotspot is increasingly affected by fires due to human activities and climate change.

Wild bee communities are the target of various conservation and ecological restoration programs. Strategic conservation can influence bee communities visiting fields and help mitigate pollinator limitations in fruit production. However, planning compatible conservation strategies and gauging their effectiveness requires understanding how local communities vary across space and time in crops and adjacent semi-natural areas.

Objective: The study investigated the effects of air pollutants on the incidence of acute angle-closure glaucoma (AACG) in Hefei, China.Methods: A combination of generalized additive models (GAM) and distributed lag non-linear models (DLNM) was used to explore the relationship between air pollutants and the incidence of AACG.Results: Exposure-response curves showed that exposure to PM2.

DNAzyme-based cascade networks are effective tools to achieve ultrasensitive detection of low-abundance miRNAs. However, their designs are complicated and costly, and the operation is time-consuming. Herein, a novel simple noncascade DNAzyme network is designed and its amplification effect is comparable to or even better than many cascading ones.

Importance: The open-label randomized phase 2 LACOG0415 trial evaluated 3 treatment strategies for patients with advanced castration-sensitive prostate cancer (CSPC): androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) plus abiraterone acetate and prednisone (AAP), apalutamide (APA) alone, or APA plus AAP.
Objective: To investigate the association of ADT plus AAP, APA alone, or APA plus AAP with health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with advanced CSPC in the LACOG0415 trial.
Design, Setting, And Participants: The LACOG0415 randomized clinical trial comprised 128 patients with advanced CSPC who were randomized (1:1:1) to 1 of 3 treatment arms from October 16, 2017, to April 23, 2019.
