The Electronic Structure of Palladium on Magnetoelectric CrO(0001).

The band structure of ultrathin Pd(111) thin films grown on the CrO(0001) surface was studied by angular-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) combined with first-principles calculations. The CrO(0001) interface and the expanded Pd lattice constant appears to significantly affect the occupied band structure of an ultrathin palladium film. A characteristic band splitting is seen in the experimental occupied electronic structure, forming a hexagonal pattern approximately half-way from the Γ" point to the surface Brillouin zone boundary.

Evidence for Similar Collectivity of High Transverse-Momentum Particles in p-Pb and Pb-Pb Collisions.

Charged hadron elliptic anisotropies (v_{2}) are presented over a wide transverse momentum (p_{T}) range for proton-lead (pPb) and lead-lead (PbPb) collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies of 8.16 and 5.02 TeV, respectively.

Investigating the mechanisms of indocyanine green tumour uptake in sarcoma cell lines and ex vivo human tissue.

Indocyanine green (ICG) is a well-established near-infrared dye which has been used clinically for several decades. Recently, it has been utilised for fluorescence-guided surgery in a range of solid cancer types, including sarcoma, with the aim of reducing the positive margin rate. The increased uptake and retention of ICG within tumours, compared with normal tissue, gives surgeons a visual reference to aid resection when viewed through a near-infrared camera.

Advances in ERK1/2 inhibition: a medicinal chemistry perspective on structure and regulation.

The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway-also known as the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway-is a critical signalling cascade involved in regulating cell growth, proliferation, and survival. First discovered in the early 1980s, the pathway's extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) subfamily was identified in the 1990s. The ERK family includes several isoforms-ERK1, ERK2, ERK3, ERK5, and ERK6-with ERK1 (MAPK3) and ERK2 (MAPK1) being the most well-characterised and playing central roles in MAPK signalling.

Functional Outcomes in Failed Osteosynthesis of Proximal Femoral Fractures Managed by Total Hip Replacement Using the Modified Hardinge Approach: An Ambispective Cohort Study.

Introduction Proximal femoral fractures are a major cause of disability, particularly in aging populations, with an increasing incidence. Although osteosynthesis remains the first-line treatment, failures are common due to various complications. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the preferred salvage procedure in such cases, despite its technical challenges.
