CAU-28 (CAU = Christian-Albrechts-University) is a zirconium-based metal-organic framework (MOF) that features a bio-renewable linker (furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid) and can be obtained through a green synthesis. In this work, we report an optimized synthesis of CAU-28, substantially enhancing the yield from 2 to 53 %. Moreover, taking advantage of the high ...

Many prey species rely on publicly available personal and social information regarding local predation threats to assess risks and make context-appropriate behavioral decisions. However, in sexually dimorphic species, males and females are expected to differ in the perceived costs and/or benefits associated with predator avoidance decisions. Recent studie ...

Assessing collateral circulation is essential in determining the best treatment for ischemic stroke patients as good collaterals lead to different treatment options, i.e., thrombectomy, whereas poor collaterals can adversely affect the treatment by leading to excess bleeding and eventually death. To reduce inter- and intra-rater variability and save time ...

Children with concussion are injured through a variety of mechanisms, but the relationship between mechanism of injury (MOI) and recovery outcomes is unclear due to small sample sizes and varied methodological designs. Our objective was to examine the association of MOI and clinical recovery in youth with concussion using a large dataset collated from a s ...

BackgroundMild cognitive impairment (MCI), a prodromal stage of Alzheimer's disease (AD) for many individuals, is accompanied by widespread connected speech (CS) changes (e.g., shorter CS samples, mention of fewer semantic content units, lower syntactic complexity). Nevertheless, findings on CS in MCI are heterogeneous. This heterogeneity, combined wi ...

Rationale: Male rats trained to associate a neutral odor (almond) with nonreceptive females during their initial sexual experiences develop a conditioned sexual inhibition (CSI) toward the female bearing the olfactory cue when given a choice in a final copulatory preference test between two receptive females (one unscented and one scented) in an open fiel ...

Both the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and the hippocampus (HC) are implicated in the formation of cognitive maps and their generalization into schemas. However, how these areas interact in supporting this function remains unclear, with some proposals supporting a serial model in which the OFC draws on task representations created by the HC to extract key be ...

This study investigates the interactions between musicianship and two auditory cognitive processes: auditory working memory (AWM) and stream segregation. The primary hypothesis is that AWM could mediate a relationship between musical training and enhanced stream segregation capabilities. Two grou ...

Medical imaging maps tissue characteristics into image intensity values, enhancing human perception. However, comprehending this data, especially in high-stakes scenarios such as surgery, is prone to errors. Additionally, current multimodal methods do not fully leverage this valuable data in thei ...
