Article Abstract
At two-thirds the weight of aluminum, magnesium alloys have the potential to reduce the fuel consumption of transportation vehicles. These advancements depend on our ability to optimize the desirable versus undesirable effects of deformation twins, which are three-dimensional (3D) microstructural domains that form under mechanical stresses. Previously only characterized through surface or thin-film measurements, we present 3D in situ characterization of deformation twinning inside an embedded grain over mesoscopic fields of view using dark-field x-ray microscopy supported by crystal plasticity finite element analysis. The results revealed the role of triple junctions on twin nucleation and the sequence and irregularity of twin growth and showed that twin-grain junctions, twin-twin junctions, and twin boundaries were the sites of localized dislocation accumulation.

Schizophrenia (SCZ) and bipolar disorder (BPD) are highly heritable psychiatric disorders with complex genetic and environmental underpinnings. Allele-specific expression (ASE) has emerged as a critical mechanism linking noncoding genetic variants to disease risk through epigenetic and environmental modulation. Here, whole-genome and transcriptome analyses of monozygotic twin pairs discordant for BPD or SCZ are performed, identifying that noncoding genetic variants drive differential ASE patterns of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in affected individuals compared to their unaffected co-twins.

Background: Preterm birth is the leading cause of neonatal mortality and long-term health complications. Cervical cerclage (CC) represents a critical intervention for extending pregnancy duration and enhancing neonatal survival in patients diagnosed with cervical insufficiency. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for preterm birth through a meta-analysis comparing outcomes between preterm and full-term deliveries following non-emergency CC.

Drug-eluting balloons (DEBs) represent a promising alternative to stent-based interventions for peripheral artery disease (PAD), and their therapeutic efficacy is dependent on optimizing drug transfer, mechanical deployment, and vessel-wall interactions. This review synthesizes current advancements in computational modeling; systematically analyzes studies identified through comprehensive ScienceDirect, Scopus, and PubMed (2015-2025) searches; and selects them according to PRISMA guidelines. Key strategies, including computational fluid dynamics (CFD), finite element analysis (FEA), fluid-structure interaction (FSI), and machine learning (ML), are critically examined to elucidate how drug kinetics, coating stability, and mechanical stress govern therapeutic outcomes.

Engineering guest-responsive materials capable of controlled and precise sorption behavior and structural deformation in response to external stimuli is imperative for various applications. However, existing systems often exhibit complex, unpredictable dynamics, posing challenges for efficient control and utilization. Here, we design crystalline metal-peptide frameworks with tunable water-responsive (WR) dynamics by assembling glycine-threonine (Gly-Thr, GT) or glycine-serine (Gly-Ser, GS) peptides with zinc (Zn) ions, achieving either continuous or discrete threshold water-sorption-dependent phase transitions.
