Year-Long Stability of Nucleic Acid Bases in Concentrated Sulfuric Acid: Implications for the Persistence of Organic Chemistry in Venus’ Clouds by Seager, Sara, Petkowski, Janusz J., Seager, Maxwell D., Grimes, John H., Zinsli, Zachary, Vollmer-Snarr, Heidi R., Abd El-Rahman, Mohamed K., Wishart, David S., Lee, Brian L., Gautam, Vasuk, Herrington, Lauren, Bains, William, Darrow, Charles

“…This work builds on our initial stability studies and is the first ever to test the reactivity and structural integrity of organic molecules subjected to extended incubation in concentrated sulfuric acid. The one-year-long stability of nucleic acid bases supports the notion that the Venus cloud environment—composed of concentrated sulfuric acid—may be able to support complex organic chemicals for extended periods of time.…”

Patient-physician agreement on function and pain is associated with long-term outcomes in sarcoma: findings from a longitudinal study by Košir, U, van de Wal, D, Husson, O, Zablith, N, Turcotte, RE

“…Conclusions: Our study offers novel insights into the importance of patient-physician agreement and communication’s role in long-term patient-reported outcomes in sarcoma. Implications for Cancer Survivors: The results emphasize the importance of mutual understanding of symptoms and patients’ needs and suggest that further consultation in cases of discordance of ratings and opinions might be beneficial for optimal survivorship.…”

The geomorphic work of the European mole (Talpa europaea): long-term monitoring of molehills using structure-from-motion photogrammetry by Baxter, T, Woor, S, Coombes, M, Viles, H

“…Furthermore, little is known about how molehills develop and degrade over time, or how long they persist as landscape features.</p> <p>By examining molehills created by the European mole (<em>Talpa europaea</em>) over four months on a floodplain in Oxfordshire, UK, we provide a quantitative assessment of how these landforms evolve over time and space. …”
