Cardiac Output Assessed by Invasive and Minimally Invasive Techniques by Allison J. Lee, Jennifer Hochman Cohn, J. Sudharma Ranasinghe

“…Esophageal Doppler and pulse contour monitors can predict fluid responsiveness and have been shown to decrease postoperative morbidity. Many minimally invasive techniques continue to suffer from decreased accuracy and reliability under periods of hemodynamic instability, and so few have reached the level of interchangeability with the PAC.…”

Hamiltonian simulation of minimal holographic sparsified SYK model by Raghav G. Jha

“…The circuit complexity for Hamiltonian simulation of the sparsified SYK model with N Majorana fermions and q=4 (quartic interactions), which retains holographic features (referred to as ‘minimal holographic sparsified SYK’) with k≪N3/24 (where k is the total number of interaction terms times 1/N) using the second-order Trotter method and Jordan-Wigner encoding is found to be O˜(kαN3/2log⁡N(Jt)3/2ε−1/2) where t is the simulation time, ε is the desired error in the implementation of the unitary U=exp⁡(−iHt) measured by the operator norm, J is the disorder strength, and constant α<1. …”

Minimization of entropy generation rate in methanol steam reforming reactor by Rui Kong, Shaojun Xia, Zhihui Xie, Yu Lin

“…The optimal reactor configuration is investigated with the optimization objective of total entropy generation rate (EGR) minimization at a fixed hydrogen production rate. Based on reference reactor with constant temperature heat supply, optimal control theory is applied to obtain optimal reactors for three cases, i.e. fixed inlet temperature, free inlet temperature, free inlet temperature and steam/carbon (S/C) ratio. …”

Update on Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) and New Implants by Lívia M. Brandão, Matthias C. Grieshaber

“…The new procedures and devices aim to lower IOP with a higher safety profile than fistulating surgery (trabeculectomy/drainage tubes) and are collectively termed “minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS).” The main advantage of MIGS is that they are nonpenetrating and/or bleb-independent procedures, thus avoiding the major complications of fistulating surgery related to blebs and hypotony. …”

Z′ Portal Dark Matter in the Minimal B-L Model by Satomi Okada

“…We consider a dark matter scenario in the context of the minimal extension of the Standard Model (SM) with a B-L (baryon number minus lepton number) gauge symmetry, where three right-handed neutrinos with a B-L charge -1 and a B-L Higgs field with a B-L charge +2 are introduced to make the model anomaly-free and to break the B-L gauge symmetry, respectively. …”
