Information scrambling with higher-form fields by Karunava Sil, Sourav Maji, Stavros Christodoulou, Abhishek Chowdhury

“…However, it has been recently observed that for certain holographic theories, the OTOC involving the U(1) conserved current for a gauge field instead varies diffusively at late times. The present work generalizes this observation to conserved currents corresponding to higher-form symmetries that belong to a wider class of symmetries known as generalized symmetries. …”

Sharp needle reconstructs peripheral outflow for patients with malfunctional arteriovenous fistula by Yong Xu, Shu-Yuan Zhu, Yuan-Ming Li, Xin-Xin Liu, Hao Zhang, Lu-Fang Wang

“…Postoperatively, all cases presented with mild subcutaneous hematomas around the tunneling site and minor diffuse bleeding. The immediate patency rate for the internal fistulas was 100%, with 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month patency rates at 91.3%, 78.3%, and 43.5%, respectively.Conclusion Sharp needle technology merged with PTA presents an effective and secure minimally invasive method for reconstructing the outflow tract, offering a new solution for recanalizing high-pressure or occluded fistulas.…”
