CHORD HI-Galaxy Survey Forecasts: Searching for nearby dark galaxies and high redshift giants
★ Today's pick

This paper forecasts that the next-generation CHORD radio telescope will revolutionize the census of neutral hydrogen galaxies by detecting roughly ten times more sources than current catalogs, extending the survey to significantly lower-mass galaxies (MHI105.5MM_{\mathrm{HI}} \sim 10^{5.5} M_{\odot}) and uncovering thousands of massive high-redshift giants to better understand the evolution of galactic gas reservoirs.

Signatures of selection underlying adaptation and production performances in tropical Bos indicus cattle: A systematic review

This systematic review synthesizes genome-wide selection-signature evidence from 58 studies to identify a reproducible core of candidate genes in tropical *Bos indicus* cattle that govern both climate adaptation (thermotolerance and immunity) and production traits, providing priority targets for breeding strategies that enhance resilience without compromising productivity.

Single-cell foundation models predict durable CAR T response despite imperfect cell annotation

This study demonstrates that single-cell foundation models can predict durable CAR T-cell persistence in pediatric B-ALL patients from pre-infusion scRNA-seq data with high accuracy, achieving clinically actionable insights even without perfect cell annotation and identifying CD8+XCL1/2+ cells as a key biomarker for long-term response.

Spontaneous Regression of Traumatic Scleral Staphyloma Following Intraocular Pressure Control : A Case report

This case report describes a rare instance where a traumatic scleral staphyloma in a 50-year-old male underwent significant spontaneous regression following aggressive pharmacological intraocular pressure control, suggesting that conservative management may be a viable alternative to surgical repair in selected patients without active leakage or infection.

Longitudinal patterns of adverse childhood experiences and ‘NEET’ (Not in Education, Employment or Training) status in young adulthood

This longitudinal study of 8,851 UK participants reveals that specific patterns of adverse childhood experiences, particularly early abuse combined with parental mental health issues and persistent parental mental health problems, are significantly associated with increased odds of persistent 'NEET' (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) status in young adulthood, even after adjusting for socioeconomic factors.

Pregnancy and neonatal outcomes in patients treated for glioma before or during pregnancy: a single-institution series

This single-institution retrospective study of 21 women with glioma found generally favorable maternal and neonatal outcomes for pregnancies occurring during or after treatment, although a higher-than-expected rate of functionally inconsequential anatomic abnormalities was observed in offspring of patients who conceived after prior glioma diagnosis.

Characterization of the shear properties in the radial-tangential section of Sitka spruce by the antisymmetrical four-point bending test of side-tapered and V-notched samples

This study demonstrates that antisymmetrical four-point bending tests on side-tapered Sitka spruce samples with sufficient depth and appropriate gauge thickness provide an effective method for characterizing shear properties in the radial-tangential plane, whereas V-notched samples require further optimization.
