Geometrically insensitive deform-and-go liquid crystal elastomer actuators through controlled radical diffusion by Xiaorui Zhou, Yi Sheng, Guancong Chen, Hong Wan, Luping Lu, Hao Xing, Jiacheng Huang, Zhan Zhu, Yufei Wang, Hanyuan Bao, Jingjun Wu, Qian Zhao, Tao Xie, Ning Zheng

“…In this study, we introduce a controlled radical diffusion mechanism that enables geometrically insensitive programming of actuation. Our findings show that LCEs can be deformed into complex structures via soft-elasticity and achieve the required mesogen alignment by simply soaking the LCE in an aqueous solvent of a free-radical initiator. …”

AI Reasoning in Deep Learning Era: From Symbolic AI to Neural–Symbolic AI by Baoyu Liang, Yuchen Wang, Chao Tong

“…Beyond a historical narrative, we introduce a formal definition of AI reasoning and propose a novel three-dimensional taxonomy that organizes reasoning paradigms by representation form, task structure, and application context. We then systematically review recent advances—including Differentiable Logic Programming, abductive learning, program induction, logic-aware Transformers, and LLM-based symbolic planning—highlighting their technical mechanisms, capabilities, and limitations. …”

Norm diffusion in global health governance: the role of think tanks by Fan Wang, Yiwen Zhang, Yuhang Chen, Yimeng Wu

“…As think tanks combine policy expertise with sharp responsiveness to emerging crises, this study investigates their specific role in global health governance, thereby providing a comprehensive understanding of their contribution to the norm diffusion mechanism.Methods We collected reports from 12 globally representative think tanks, covering the period from 15 June 2007 to 31 December 2022. Using the R programming language, we employed both quantitative and qualitative methods, including structural topic modelling and co-occurrence analysis, to identify topic priorities and correlations between key terms.Results Globally, think tank discussions on health governance norms centre on four primary areas: the global economy and trade, responses to infectious diseases and public health crises, cooperation and aid in global health governance, and the social impacts of health norms. …”

Crosstalk between hypertension and diabetes: focusing on pregnancy and offspring. A systematic review by Medina-Hernández Alejandra, Espinosa-Tanguma Ricardo, Donjuán-Loredo Guadalupe

“…Several mechanisms such as structural changes in the arterial wall, endoplasmic reticulum (RE) stress, increase in ROS and decrease in nitric oxide (NO) synthesis are proposed as some of the possible culprits.ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that the interaction between DM and HT occurs through mechanisms that they share in their pathogenesis, that is, the presence of one lead to the other and the hyperglycemia to which infants are exposed in utero makes them more susceptible to CVD.…”
