A multi-tissue transcriptome and expression atlas of Astacus leptodactylus: assembly and annotation

This study presents a high-quality, multi-tissue transcriptome and expression atlas for the narrow-clawed crayfish *Astacus leptodactylus*, assembled from 37 RNA-seq samples and validated for functional completeness, thereby establishing a foundational resource for ion channel research and functional genomics in non-model crustaceans.

A mechanistic framework for interspecific variation in vertebrate developmental radiosensitivity under chronic ionizing radiation

This study proposes a unified mechanistic framework explaining interspecific variation in vertebrate developmental radiosensitivity under chronic ionizing radiation by integrating factors such as radionuclide bioaccumulation, metabolic rate, anatomical shielding, and proliferative dynamics, based on a structured synthesis of 20 experimental studies and 9 articles.

Soft Actor-Critic Control of a Behaviorally Heterogeneous S1S2IR Epidemic Model: Stability, Bifurcation, and COVID-19 Calibration

This paper proposes a Soft Actor-Critic reinforcement learning framework integrated with a behaviorally heterogeneous S1S2IR epidemic model to dynamically optimize intervention strategies, demonstrating through COVID-19 calibration that it effectively reduces infection peaks and costs compared to static policies.

Entropy Anatomy of Pre-Agitation Activity Disruption in the TIHM Home-Monitoring Cohort

This study analyzes the TIHM home-monitoring cohort to demonstrate that pre-agitation disruption in dementia is characterized by a distinct "entropy anatomy" where irregularity metrics (sample and approximate entropy) significantly increase while long-range persistence (Hurst exponent) decreases, supporting the use of multi-feature sequences over single-metric triggers for detection.

Reliability Diagnostics for Physics-Informed Neural Option-Pricing Models: Residual-Error Geometry, Greek Stability, and No-Arbitrage Structure

This paper proposes a comprehensive a posteriori diagnostic framework that moves beyond simple residual loss to evaluate the reliability of Physics-Informed Neural Networks for option pricing by analyzing residual-error geometry, Greek stability, and no-arbitrage constraints, demonstrating through extensive benchmarks that these structural diagnostics provide a more accurate assessment of pricing errors than residual metrics alone.

Optimizing Preprocessing for Urinary Cell-Free DNA Preservation: Centrifugation, EDTA Concentration, Storage and Thawing Strategies

This study establishes that optimal urinary cell-free DNA preservation requires processing urine into supernatant with 10 mM EDTA, followed by storage at -80°C for long-term stability or at room temperature for up to 7 days, while avoiding high EDTA concentrations, uncentrifuged whole urine, and post-thaw secondary centrifugation.
