The Biswas-Chatterjee-Sen (BChS) model of opinion dynamics has been studied on three-dimensional Solomon networks by means of extensive Monte Carlo simulations. Finite-size scaling relations for different lattice sizes have been used in order to obtain the relevant quantities of the system in the thermodynamic limit. From the simulation data it is clear that the BChS model undergoes a second-order phase transition. At the transition point, the critical exponents describing the behavior of the order parameter, the corresponding order parameter susceptibility, and the correlation length, have been evaluated. From the values obtained for these critical exponents one can confidently conclude that the BChS model in three dimensions is in a different universality class to the respective model defined on one- and two-dimensional Solomon networks, as well as in a different universality class as the usual Ising model on the same networks.

There is a much debate regarding optimal selection in patients with metastatic cancer who should undergo local treatment (surgery or radiation treatment) to the primary tumor and/or metastases. Additionally, the optimal treatment of newly diagnosed metastatic cancer is largely unclear. Current prognostication systems to best inform these clinical scenarios are limited, as all metastatic patients are grouped together as having Stage IV disease without further incorporation of patient and disease-specific covariates that significantly impact patient outcomes.

Background: Mortality in cardiogenic shock (CS) remains high. Significant inter-hospital heterogeneity in critical care therapies have been described, which reflects the lack of high-quality evidence to guide optimal treatment. We aimed to describe differences in practices and clinical outcomes among patients with CS in the United States (US) and Canada.

Importance: A substantial number of individuals worldwide experience long COVID, or post-COVID condition. Other postviral and autoimmune conditions have a female predominance, but whether the same is true for long COVID, especially within different subgroups, is uncertain.
Objective: To evaluate sex differences in the risk of developing long COVID among adults with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Importance: Patients with transthyretin (ATTR) cardiac amyloid infiltration are increasingly diagnosed at earlier disease stages with no heart failure (HF) symptoms and a wide range of cardiac amyloid infiltration.
Objective: To characterize the clinical phenotype and natural history of asymptomatic patients with ATTR cardiac amyloid infiltration.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This cohort study analyzed data of all patients at 12 international centers for amyloidosis from January 1, 2008, through December 31, 2023.

The anterior hypothalamic area (AHA) is a key brain region for orchestrating defensive behaviors. Using in vivo calcium imaging in mice, we observed that AHA neuronal activity increases during foot shock delivery and foot-shock associated auditory cues. We found that following shock-induced increases in AHA activity, a decrease in activity coincides with the onset of grooming behavior.
