Trait perseverative cognition (PC) is associated with inflexible autonomic activity and risk for depressive recurrence. However, the identification of dynamic psychophysiological markers of PC that fluctuate within individuals over time could facilitate the passive detection of moments when PC occurs in daily life. Using intensively sampled data across 1 week (3x/day) in adults with remitted major depressive disorder (rMDD) and never-depressed controls (CONs), we investigated the utility of monitoring ambulatory autonomic complexity to predict moments of PC engagement in everyday life. Autonomic complexity metrics, including the root mean square of successive difference (RMSSD), indexing vagal control, and sample entropy, indexing signal complexity, were calculated in the 30 min each measurement of PC to enable time-lagged analyses. Multilevel models examined proximal fluctuations in the mean level and inertia of complexity metrics as predictors of subsequent PC engagement. Momentary increases in the inertia of sample entropy, but not other metrics, predicted higher levels of subsequent PC in the rMDD group, but not among never-depressed CONs. The inertia of sample entropy could index autonomic rigidity and serve as a dynamic risk marker for real-world PC in individuals with a history of depression. This could inform the development of technologies to passively detect fluctuations in risk for PC, facilitating real-time interventions to prevent PC and reduce the risk for depressive recurrence.

Data-Free Knowledge Distillation (DFKD) have achieved significant breakthroughs, enabling the effective transfer of knowledge from teacher neural networks to student neural networks without reliance on original data. However, a significant challenge faced by existing methods that attempt to generate samples from random noise is that the noise lacks meaningful information, such as class-specific semantic information. Consequently, the absence of meaningful information makes it difficult for the generator to map this noise to the ground-truth data distribution, resulting in the generation of low-quality training samples.

Thyroid eye disease (TED) is a prevalent autoimmune orbital disorder that can severely impair visual function and significantly diminish patients' quality of life. In recent years, several studies have attempted to automate TED diagnosis using optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. However, existing approaches primarily rely on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) combined with attention mechanisms and are mostly trained using traditional cross-entropy loss.

This work elucidates the thermo-kinetics of the thermal conversion of cameroonian kaolin to metakaolin as the main product. The thermokinetical parameters (activation energy and pre-exponential factor ) for the kaolin conversion were calculated using model-free methods, the Kissinger-Akahira-Sunrose (KAS) and the Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO) method, and differential methods (Kissinger and Ozawa) additionally including iterative procedures for KAS and FWO methods (KAS-Ir; FWO-Ir). The cameroonian kaolin was heat-treated using three different heating rates, 5, 20 and 40 K min, leading to metakaolin samples named MK-(5), MK-(20) and MK-(40).

Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) have emerged as promising cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to their low cost, simple preparation, and high theoretical specific capacity. The integration of high-entropy concepts with framework-structured PBAs has pioneered a new pathway for performance optimization in SIBs cathodes. However, most scholars have only studied the five elements constituting high entropy as a whole, while challenges such as the role of each element and optimization of the proportions among constituent elements remain unresolved.

Background: We sought to investigate the association between circulating inflammatory and cardiovascular proteomics biomarkers and cardiac autonomic nervous dysfunction-sensitive heart rate variability indices.
Methods: Using the population-based KORA (Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg) cohort, 233 proteomics biomarkers were quantified in baseline plasma samples of 1389 individuals using proximity extension assay technology. Five heart rate variability indices (Rényi entropy of the histogram with order [α] 4, total power of the density spectra, SD of word sequence, SD of the short-term normal-to-normal interval variability, compression entropy) were assessed at baseline in 982 individuals and in 407 individuals at baseline and at 14-year follow-up.
