Authors of the article address the measurable consequences of the network effect (NE) on time series generated by different parts of the brain, heart, and lung organ-networks (ONs), which are directly related to their inter-network and intra-network interactions. The authors assert that these same physiologic ONs have been shown to generate crucial event (CE) time series, and herein are shown ,using modified diffusion entropy analysis (MDEA) to have scaling indices with quasiperiodic changes in complexity, as measured by scaling indices, over time.

Article describes how the main functions of thin-walled structures are to reduce the weight of the finished product and to increase the rigidity of the structure. The authors compared the vibration signal for different approaches to machining thin walled-components with vertical walls made of Ti6AI4V titanium alloy and Inconel 625 nickel alloy.

Article describes how authors examined publications of medical N-of-1 trials to examine whether they meet the evidence standards and the criteria for demonstrating evidence of a relation between an independent and an outcome variable per the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) standards for SCEDs. The authors also examined the appropriateness of the data analytic techniques in the special context of N-of-1 designs.

Article describes how stem cell therapy holds immense potential for regenerative medicine, but its applications are limited due to the loss of pluripotency during in vitro expansion. This study reveals that the arrangement of electrospun fibers aligns with the distribution and strength of the electric field through both experimentation and simulation.

Article describes how high-fidelity conjugate heat transfer simulations are used to model a micro-channel heat exchanger (MCHE) in a crossflow to study its thermal-hydraulic performance. Three different microchannel geometries, namely circular, triangular, and square with louver-shaped fins, are considered.

Article states that the development of efficient heterogeneous catalysts with multiselectivity (e.g., enantio- and chemoselectivity) has long been sought after but with limited progress being made so far. To achieve enantio- and chemoselectivity in a heterogeneous system, as inspired by enzymes, the authors illustrate herein an approach of creating an enzyme-mimic region (EMR) within the nanospace of a metal–organic framework (MOF) as exemplified in the context of incorporating a chiral frustrated Lewis pair (CFLP) into a MOF with a tailored pore environment.
