One-dimensional sectors from the squashed three-sphere by Bomans, P, Pufu, SS

“…Three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}$ = 4 superconformal field theories contain 1d topological sectors consisting of twisted linear combinations of half-BPS local operators that can be inserted anywhere along a line. After a conformal mapping to a round three-sphere, the 1d sectors are now defined on a great circle of $\mathcal{S}$³. …”

The intelligence of artifice: Oscar Wilde and AI by Tyson, C, Mendelssohn, M

“…At the turn of the century, Wilde recombined strands inherited from French and American sources and refashioned them into a new artistic stance that anticipated the postmodern preoccupation with fakery. A direct line can be traced between Baudrillard’s ‘simulacra’ and Jameson’s ‘linguistic masks’ and Wilde’s celebration of ‘the truth of masks’ a century earlier. …”

Autoimmune and paraneoplastic seizures by Wagner, B, Irani, S

“…We emphasize the more effective immunotherapy response in patients with causative autoantibodies, and discuss the emerging evidence for various first-, second-, and third-line immunotherapies. Finally, we highlight available clinical rating scales which can guide autoantibody testing and immunotherapy in patients with seizures of unknown etiology. …”

The Enggano-Dutch word list derived from Helfrich's (1916) “Nadere Bijdrage Tot de Kennis van Het Engganeesch” by Rajeg, GPW

“…In addition, we include the following files: (a) the orthography profile; (b) the variant form table; (c) R codes to pre-process the database (all ended with .R extension); (d) output of the Indonesian translation in .rds format where the source is Dutch or English. The one-line, multiple forms in the original are split into separate rows.…”

Insulinotropic activity of Tinospora crispa extract: effect on β-cell Ca2+ handling by Noor, Hamdan, Ashcroft, Stephen J. H.

“…The mechanism of insulinotropic action of Tinospora crispa was investigated in vitro using an insulin-secreting clonal β-cell line, HIT-T15. The aqueous extract sensitizes the β-cell to extracellular Ca2+ and promotes intracellular Ca2+ accumulation which in turn causes increased insulin release. …”
