Analgesic effect of simultaneously targeting multiple pain processing brain circuits in an aged humanized mouse model of chronic pain by transcranial focused ultrasound by Min Gon Kim, Chih-Yu Yeh, Kai Yu, Zherui Li, Kalpna Gupta, Bin He

“…Low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) has recently been shown to noninvasively and non-pharmacologically modulate pain hypersensitivity with high spatial specificity and deep brain penetration. However, the lack of knowledge about its effectiveness for pain management in older subjects vulnerable to severe pain who are also at increased risk of cognitive impairment, presents significant challenges. …”

Developing digital image processing methods to quantify internal and interfacial convection in the Hele-Shaw cell, with applications to the laboratory ice–ocean boundary layer by Safiyyah Moos, Marcello Vichi, François Fripiat, Jean-Louis Tison, Anne de Wit, Tokoloho Rampai

“…Obtaining high-resolution, autonomous and continuous measurements of internal and interfacial convection at the ice–ocean interface is important to understand sea-ice desalination, compare the effects of gravity drainage and salt segregation, and give insight into the behaviour of the sublayer beneath the ice. We present the first digital image processing method that can be applied to Schlieren images from a quasi-2D Hele-Shaw cell to provide continuous high-frequency measurements of fingers and streamers, which are linked to interfacial and internal convection, respectively. …”

Perioperative pain and addiction interdisciplinary network (PAIN): protocol for the perioperative management of cannabis and cannabinoid-based medicines using a modified Delphi pro... by Joseph Fiorellino, Alexander McLaren-Blades, Varuna Manoo, Yuvaraj Kotteeswaran, Yen-Yen Gee

“…Given the large population of persons using cannabis, the heterogeneity of cannabis products and the paucity (and heterogeneity) of perioperative literature surrounding it, perioperative guidelines for cannabis consuming patients are both lacking and necessary. In this paper, we present the design for a modified Delphi technique that has been started with the intent of deriving cannabis perioperative guidelines from the available medical literature and the consensus of multidisciplinary experts.Materials, methods and analysis This study will use a scoping narrative literature review and modified Delphi process to generate cannabis perioperative guidelines. …”

A two-stage model of the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and the fuzzy synthetic evaluation technique to prioritize sustainable sanitation services under uncertainty by Shaher Zyoud, Siwar M. Omair, Susan A. Jarrad

“…These models assist with considering trade-offs, data uncertainty, and arriving at decisions by considering technical, economic, social, and environmental sustainability. In the present work, a two-stage integrated model of the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) and the Fuzzy Synthetic Evaluation Technique (FSET) was developed, accompanied by a sensitivity analysis, yielding an assessment index designated as the Sanitation Priority Index (SPI). …”

A qualitative research on the present situation of nurses’ skills in pre-hospital treatment of severe trauma in Yunnan Province (云南省护士严重创伤院前救治技能现状的质性研究)... by SHI Mei (史梅), WANG Chen (王晨), WANG Jun (王峻)

“…Conclusion The pre-hospital first aid ability of nurses in Yunnan province is at a low level, and there is a lack of objective evaluation criteria. It is necessary to strengthen the training of nurses' pre-hospital treatment skills, clarify their treatment responsibilities, and construct the evaluation index of nurses' pre-hospital treatment skills for severe trauma, so as to provide scientific and objective reference for standardizing the pre-hospital treatment process and nurse training. …”

Extremely Weak Geomagnetic Field Following Permo‐Carboniferous Reverse Superchron and Its Geological Implications by Weijie Zhang, Xixi Zhao, Congcong Gai, Zhaoxia Jiang, Zhong Zheng, Qingsong Liu

“…Abstract Superchrons represent critical phases in geomagnetic field evolution, offering insights into Earth's distinct internal states. However, the lack of research on how the longest Phanerozoic superchron (Permo‐Carboniferous Reverse Superchron, PCRS, ∼318–263 Ma) terminated limits our understanding of the geodynamic processes and the interaction mechanisms between the Earth's interior and surface environment. …”
