Positive Neutrino Masses with DESI DR2 via Matter Conversion to Dark Energy.

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is a massively parallel spectroscopic survey on the Mayall telescope at Kitt Peak, which has released measurements of baryon acoustic oscillations determined from over 14 million extragalactic targets. We combine DESI Data Release 2 with CMB datasets to search for evidence of matter conversion to dark energy (DE), focusing on a scenario mediated by stellar collapse to cosmologically coupled black holes (CCBHs). In this physical model, which has the same number of free parameters as ΛCDM, DE production is determined by the cosmic star formation rate density (SFRD), allowing for distinct early- and late-time cosmologies.

Assessing Dietary Habits, Quality, and Nutritional Composition of Workplace Lunches: A Comprehensive Analysis in Turin, Piedmont (Italy).

The importance of understanding dietary habits during working hours is becoming increasingly evident. As demonstrated, dietary habits have been shown to exert a considerable influence on the productivity of workers and the creation of a healthier workplace. : The aim of this study is to assess the nutritional quality and self-perception of lunches consumed by workers in Piedmont (Italy).

The Brescia International Multidisciplinary Consensus Guidelines on the Optimal Pathology Assessment and Multidisciplinary Pathways of Non-Pancreatic Neoplasms in and Around the Ampulla of Vater (PERIPAN).

Importance: The lack of multidisciplinary workflow guidelines and clear definitions and classifications for neoplasms in and around the ampulla of Vater results in inconsistencies affecting patient care and research.

Objective: The PERIPAN international multidisciplinary consensus group aimed to standardize the multidisciplinary diagnostic workflow and achieve consensus on definitions and classifications in order to ensure proper classification and optimal diagnostic assessment and consequently to improve patient care and future research.

Design: An international team of 43 experts (pathologists, surgeons, radiologists, gastroenterologists, oncologists) from 12 countries identified knowledge gaps, reviewed 37061 articles, and proposed recommendations using the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network methodology (SIGN), including the Delphi methodology and the AGREEII tool for quality assessment and external validation.

Active Carbon Transport by Diel Vertical Migrating Zooplankton: Calculated and Modeled, but Never Measured.

Zooplankton diel vertical migration (DVM) is a globally ubiquitous phenomenon and a critical component of the ocean's biological pump. During DVM, zooplankton metabolism leads to carbon and nutrient export to mesopelagic depths, where carbon can be sequestered for decades to millennia, while also introducing labile, energy-rich food sources to midwater ecosystems. Three pervasive metabolic pathways allow zooplankton to sequester carbon: fecal pellet egestion, dissolved organic matter excretion, and respiration.

Segmentectomy Versus Lobectomy in Early Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Population-Based Analysis in Northern Italy.

Background: Although smoking cessation remains the most effective preventive measure against lung cancer, the implementation of low-dose computed tomography screening has facilitated early tumor detection, increasing the need for less invasive surgical approaches. This study evaluated the efficacy of segmentectomy vs. lobectomy for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in northern Italy.
