Article Abstract
Frequency shift detection is crucial for advancing quantum, laser and metrology technologies. Here, we propose a compact design for detecting frequency shift in GaAs waveguides with mode-coupled Bragg gratings, which provides enhanced sensitivity. Our proposed architecture features a main ridge waveguide with a Bragg grating, flanked by two curved ridge waveguides. This configuration exhibits an optical phenomenon characterized by a transmission crossing at the wavelength of the Bragg grating. Using particle swarm optimization and employing efficient figures of merit, we achieve a high transmission crossing. The observed asymmetric transmission crossing not only holds the promise for a compact on-chip laser frequency stabilizer, but also fosters the development of novel sensing platforms with heightened sensitivity.

Accurate three-dimensional localisation of ultrasonic bat calls is essential for advancing behavioural and ecological research. I present a comprehensive, open-source simulation framework-Array WAH-for designing, evaluating, and optimising microphone arrays tailored to bioacoustic tracking. The tool incorporates biologically realistic signal generation, frequency-dependent propagation, and advanced Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) localisation algorithms, enabling precise quantification of both positional and angular accuracy.

A comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing the epidemiological dynamics of COVID-19 across the pandemic waves-particularly in terms of disease severity and mortality-is critical for optimizing healthcare services and prioritizing high-risk populations. Here we aim to analyze the factors associated with short-term and prolonged hospitalization for COVID-19 during the first three pandemic waves. We conducted a retrospective observational study using data from individuals reported in the e-SUS-VS system who were hospitalized for COVID-19 in a state in a southeast state of Brazil.

Background: Rates of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) morbidity and mortality have increased in young women aged ≤55 years but little is known about their experience recovering from and living with AMI. A personal recovery (experience of an identity shift manifested in both losses and gains) has been reported among general AMI survivors. Our objective was to gain insights into young women's perspectives on long-term post-AMI recovery, under the patient-centered personal recovery framework.

Although glutamatergic and GABAergic synapses are important in seizure generation, the contribution of non-synaptic ionic and electrical mechanisms to synchronization of seizure-prone hippocampal neurons remains unclear. Here, we developed a physiologically relevant model to study these mechanisms by inducing prolonged seizure-like discharges (SLDs) in hippocampal slices from male rats through modest, sustained ionic manipulations. Specifically, we reduced extracellular calcium to 0.
