Pt-induced semimetallic transport and enhanced thermoelectric response in the half-Heusler alloy YNi_{0.5}Pt_{0.5}Bi
Half-Heusler alloys provide a versatile platform for tuning electronic and thermal transport through chemical substitution. Here, we investigate the thermoelectric and magnetotransport properties of spark-plasma-sintered YNi_{0.5}Pt_{0.5}Bi. Partial substitution of Ni by Pt drives YNiBi toward semimetallic transport, characterized by hole-dominated conduction, a low Hall carrier concentration of $\mathrm{1.9 \times 10^{19} cm^{-3}}$, and a sizeable nonsaturating magnetoresistance of 18$\%$ at 30
Documenting Trofinetide Treatment Phenotypes in Rett Syndrome with a Dual-LLM Consensus Pipeline
Objective: Trofinetide, approved in 2023 as the first Rett syndrome treatment, lacks scalable real-world monitoring because chart review is labor-intensive. We developed a dual large language model (LLM) consensus pipeline to extract 18 treatment-response phenotypes, comprising 4 adverse effects, 13 Rett clinical features, and medication refusal, from clinical notes. Materials and Methods: We analyzed 26,763 notes from 108 patients with confirmed sustained trofinetide exposure at Texas Children'

Since then, discussions about the hospital of the future have tended to focus on a wide array of technologies, such as intelligent patient rooms, automated records, telemedicine, robots, and remote surgery.

Transferable conditional brain charts link cortico-subcortical structure to Alzheimer's disease progression
Normative models chart how brain measures vary across the lifespan, expressing each individual as a deviation from a healthy reference. However, most regional models of cortical thickness disregard dependencies between cortical and subcortical anatomy, and transferring them to a new site typically requires retraining or a recalibration of location and scale alone. We condition lifespan norms of cortical thickness on subcortical volume, such that each deviation indicates whether an individual's c

High-frequency water megamasers as precision probes of black holes, galaxies and cosmology: A case for a next-generation sub-mm/mm interferometer
Water megamasers in the circumnuclear disks of active galactic nuclei are among the most precise probes of supermassive black holes.

ALMA has opened a new window into water maser transitions in the sub-mm/mm regime, which trace temperatures, densities and disk regions that are inaccessible at 22 GHz, and can
