Reward and Efficacy Modulate the Rate of Anticipatory Pupil Dilation.
Psychophysiology
January 2025
Department of Experimental Psychology, Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium.
Pupil size is a well-established marker of cognitive effort, with greater efforts leading to larger pupils. This is particularly true for pupil size during task performance, whereas findings on anticipatory effort triggered by a cue stimulus are less consistent. For example, a recent report by Frömer et al.

Center for Research and Production of Radioisotopes, Dalat Nuclear Research Institute, Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute (VINATOM), Da Lat City, Lam Dong Province, Vietnam.
Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the principal technical characteristics of a well-type gas-filled ionization chamber dose calibrator used in measuring radiopharmaceutical activity, namely accuracy, repeatability, and linearity. Furthermore, this work also explored the correlation between the device's response and the position and volume of the radiopharmaceutical I-131.
Materials And Methods: Experimental measurements were conducted on the ATOMLAB 500 dose calibrator using NIST traceable Cs-137 source to determine the accuracy and repeatability.
Multiscale Finite Element Modeling of Human Ear for Acoustic Wave Transmission into Cochlea and Hair Cells Fatigue Failure.

Hearing loss is highly related to acoustic injuries and mechanical damage of ear tissues. The mechanical responses of ear tissues are difficult to measure experimentally, especially cochlear hair cells within the organ of Corti (OC) at microscale. Finite element (FE) modeling has become an important tool for simulating acoustic wave transmission and studying cochlear mechanics.

January 2025
Department of Spine Surgery, The Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, Changsha, China.
Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, a complex three-dimensional spine deformity, presents a formidable challenge for orthopedic residents in understanding its anatomy and surgical strategies. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of three-dimensional printing (3DP) models in enhancing the comprehension of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis among orthopedic residents.
Methods: Forty orthopedic residents were randomly divided into two groups, the first group received lectures that were augmented with 3DP models illustrating five cases of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, along with corresponding X-ray and CT images.
Exploring the potential of gemcitabine-metal-organic frameworks in combating pancreatic cancer under ketogenic conditions.
BMC Cancer
January 2025
Department of Biochemistry, School of Medicine, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
Background: Inadequate treatment responses, chemotherapy resistance, significant heterogeneity, and lengthy treatment durations create an urgent need for new pancreatic cancer therapies. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of gemcitabine-loaded nanoparticles enclosed in an organo-metallic framework under ketogenic conditions in inhibiting the growth of MIA-PaCa-2 cells.
Methods: Gemcitabine was encapsulated in Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and its morphology and size distribution were examined using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Dynamic light scattering (DLS) with further characterization including FTIR analysis.
