Summary: TiNO-coated stents have better strut coverage and lower intimal-hyperplasia than drug-eluting stents. It is important to study the long-term outcomes of ACS patients treated with TiNO-coated stents.

Summary: This study explores the challenges nurses face with BCMA implementation, including the impact on nurse autonomy, nurses' work routines, and the lack of support for nurse decision-making and task-related work by information technology tools.

Summary: The study documented significant excess returns in U.S. equities before scheduled FOMC meetings from 1994 to 2011, which have largely disappeared after 2015. The change in pre-FOMC drift is attributed to reduced uncertainty in the market.

Summary: Aging is associated with an increasing burden of morbidity, particularly for cardiovascular diseases. Cardiovascular risk factors, ischemic heart diseases, heart failure, arrhythmias, and cardiomyopathies are prevalent in older individuals and exhibit distinct clinical manifestations compared to younger populations. The aging heart phenotype reflects cellular-level modifications, and understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms could improve clinical management and identify new therapeutic targets for older patients.

Summary: This study decomposes the decrease and subsequent recovery in the fraction of dividend-paying firms, finding that changes in firm characteristics and proclivity to pay each play a significant role. Newly listed and delisted firms have a larger impact on trends than dividend initiations or omissions.

Summary: Stress urinary incontinence is a common problem that significantly affects the quality of life and social interaction for both women and men. Although modern diagnostics and therapies have improved the situation, there are still limitations in diagnosing and treating incontinence. Medications and surgery are the main treatment options, but there is a need for further research and improvement in traditional techniques and new therapies.

Summary: This case describes a 63-year-old Caucasian man with multiple medical conditions who presented with unilateral papillitis and neuroretinitis in the left eye. MRI findings showed optic nerve and optic nerve sheath enhancement, which is a rare manifestation of cat-scratch neuroretinitis. Broad laboratory evaluation confirmed an active B. henselae infection, which was likely transmitted by a newly adopted kitten. The patient's clinical findings resolved with a course of antibiotics and oral steroids.

Summary: This study reinterprets the latest ATLAS disappearing track search for a range of dark matter multiplets with different spins and electroweak quantum numbers, finding that the disappearing track signature can probe a vast portion of the parameter space. The results provide upper limits on the cross section and efficiencies in the lifetime-dark matter mass plane for all considered models, demonstrating the potential for easy recasting for similar classes of models. The recasting code employed in the study is also provided as part of the public LLP recasting repository.

Summary: Historically, son preference has been prevalent in South Asia, but a survey in Bangladesh has shown an emerging preference for gender balance among women of childbearing age. Despite the weakening of son preference, actual fertility decisions are still influenced by it.

Summary: This study investigated three polymorphs of urea-barbituric acid (1:1) co-crystals to describe the dynamic character of their H-bond networks and explain the disappearance of the polar polymorph. The relative stability of each polymorph was considered in terms of NVT and NVE ensembles, and the results of computations were discussed in light of the analysis of H-bond propensities, coordination scores, and obtained experimental data. The polar form of urea-barbituric acid co-crystal can be considered one of the first known examples of a disappearing co-crystal polymorph.

Summary: Endoscopic biliary radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a promising therapeutic option for malignant biliary obstruction (MBO), but its efficacy remains controversial and further research is needed. Extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is considered the most effectively treated condition by biliary RFA, but there is limited research on this point.

Summary: Understanding clonal hematopoiesis is crucial for diagnosing and managing patients with hematologic conditions. Further research is needed to accurately predict the natural course and guide management of patients in terms of malignant progression and non-hematologic consequences.
