Summary: Neurons in the medial entorhinal cortex can flexibly alter their firing properties to support navigation and memory. This study shows that the entorhinal circuit can rapidly and reversibly transition between different spatial maps even in the absence of discrete contexts, by translating along a single dimension in the population-level activity space.

Summary: Hiring appropriate editors, chairs, and committee members for academic journals and conferences is challenging. This paper proposes a relevance-based author ranking algorithm to measure the significance of authors to individual venues. The algorithm is able to identify both high profile scholars and those who are particularly significant for individual venues.

Summary: The study found that different multi-authorship indices have varying levels of correlation in ranking authors, with some showing strong correlation, weak correlation, and even negative correlation. In the top 10% rankings, the g(f)-index successfully brought in most of the award winners, but none of the indices were able to include all of the awardees in the list of top ranked authors.

Summary: This study describes the academic impact and author characteristics of open-access journals in otolaryngology. The findings indicate that articles published in open-access journals in this field have significantly fewer citations and lower academic impact compared to subscription-based journals.

Summary: We appreciate the readers' interest in our research. Our study used prospective trial data to assess a high percentage of patients with TICI 2c/3 reperfusion, which is important due to inherent selection bias in observational studies. Another study also found a similar rate of hypoperfusion in patients with complete recanalization, supporting the external validity of our results.

Summary: Assessing the academic influence of researchers is a challenging task, and there is currently no universally accepted standard. This study computed 14 metrics to determine potential measures of influence and found high correlations among these metrics. Some metrics showed significant differences in rankings. Certain metrics were closely associated with award winners, and there was some relationship between specific societies and metrics.

Summary: International scientific societies nominate researchers for awards based on qualitative judgments using subjective assessments. There is a lack of established criteria for evaluating the quality of work, leading to complex issues in determining the best parameter for mapping experts' qualitative evaluation. Various quantitative parameters have been proposed, but their effectiveness in award nominations remains unclear.

Summary: The study found that FIB-4 score is associated with mortality in COVID-19 hospitalized patients, with each unit increase in FIB-4 score linked to higher risk of death. FIB-4 score peaked and then normalized in the survivor group but failed to do so in the deceased group. Furthermore, FIB-4 was positively correlated with SARS-CoV-2 viral load and monocyte-associated cytokines, particularly interleukin-6 and interferon gamma-induced protein 10.
