We extended our previous genome-wide association study for psoriasis with a multistage
replication study including 8,312 individuals with psoriasis (cases) and 12,919 controls from …

Background & Aims Desmoplasia and poor vascularity cause severe metabolic stress in
pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs). Serotonin (5-HT) is a neuromodulator with …

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) plants were inoculated with two species of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
(AMF) - Rhizophagus intraradices (RI) and Funneliformis mosseae (FM) and grown for 60 …

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have received increasing interest due to their tunable
particle size, large surface area, stable framework, and easy surface modification. They …

In existing quantum key distribution protocols, two legitimate peers, Alice and Bob, must
monitor the signal disturbance to place a bound on the potential information leakage. However, …

Aims The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of transcatheter closure
for perimembranous ventricular septal defect (pmVSD) and its long-term results. The most …

Objectives : The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the surgical
versus transcatheter approach to correct perimembranous ventricular septal defects (…

We propose a wavelength-saving topology of a quantum key distribution (QKD) network based
on passive optical elements, and we report on the field test of this network on commercial …

Li 2 CO 3 is the cathodic discharge product of a Li-CO 2 /O 2 battery and is difficult to
electrochemically decompose. The accumulation of Li 2 CO 3 leads to battery degradation and …

Towards realizing the future quantum internet 1 , 2 , a pivotal milestone entails the transition
from two-node proof-of-principle experiments conducted in laboratories to comprehensive …
