Summary: A new nanoflower-like iridium(III) J-aggregate (T-Ir) was prepared and used as a luminophore with good electrochemiluminescence (ECL) activity. Through a sandwich immunoreaction, detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was achieved by utilizing T-Ir as the energy donor and gold nanoparticles capped cuprous oxide nanocubes (Cu2O@Au) as the energy acceptor. The proposed immunosensor exhibited excellent sensitivity, selectivity, reproducibility, and practicability, indicating its potential in disease diagnosis.

Summary: This study used unsupervised machine learning to analyze the sales of electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) on Instagram. The results showed that there is a significant amount of unregulated ENDS sales on Instagram, including flavored products, and many websites lack age verification. These findings may violate Instagram's policies and US laws, highlighting the need for stronger regulation to prevent youth access to and use of ENDS.

Summary: In clinical trials, when the primary analysis fails to meet the study objective, the observed positive results in a specific sub-population analysis raise the question of whether they can be used to support regulatory submission. This article proposes several statistical evaluations for confirming the integrity and validity of the observed sub-population analysis results. The evaluations address selection bias, reproducibility, consistency, generalizability, and sensitivity index. A numerical example of a global clinical trial is presented, along with recommendations for incorporating statistical evaluations. Real-world data and evidence are suggested as possible solutions to address regulatory concerns and increase statistical power.

Summary: There is an increasing interest in developing robust and efficient sequential methods for reservoir simulation. The sequential fully implicit Newton (SFIN) method addresses the slow sequential coupling convergence issue when flow and transport problems are strongly coupled. However, the original SFIN algorithm requires fixed primary variables during the simulation. In this work, strategies are proposed to handle inconsistent primary variables and extend the SFIN method to the natural black-oil formulation.

Summary: Scientific papers are crucial for academic communication, but many of them lack in-depth research and present core content ambiguously, hindering the progression of science and technology. To address this challenge, the INTEGrity vERification (INTEGER) task is introduced to help researchers assess the integrity of their papers and verify the clarity of each knowledge unit. A multi-task learning model utilizing Tucker decomposition and span-level attention mechanism is proposed to accurately identify terms and their integrity. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the model.
