DOI: 10.1001/jamasurg.2023.1560
Abstract: Importance Immediate consequences of trauma include a rapid and immense activation of the immune system, whereas long-term outcomes include premature death, physical disability, and reduced workability. Objective To investigate if moderate to severe trauma is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/advs.201903166
Abstract: Abstract Thin‐film solar cells based on hybrid lead halide perovskites have achieved certified power conversion efficiencies exceeding 24%, approaching those of crystalline silicon. This motivates deeper studies of the mechanisms that determine their performance. Twin… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/bdr2.1625
Abstract: Acardiac twinning is a rare anomaly of monochorionic twin pregnancies. Acardiac fetuses lack a functional heart but are passively perfused by arterial blood from their pump co-twin causing the acardiac body to be hypoxemic. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/pd.6124
Abstract: Haplotype‐based assay has been proved efficient in noninvasive prenatal testing for various monogenic disorders in singleton pregnancies. However, its application in twin pregnancies is still blank. Here we provide a novel algorithmic approach to noninvasively… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/sim.9367
Abstract: It is challenging to evaluate the genetic impacts on a biologic feature and separate them from environmental impacts. This is usually achieved through twin studies by assessing the collective genetic impact defined by the differential… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00269-019-01079-1
Abstract: MgO makes up about 20% of the Earth’s lower mantle; hence, its rheological behaviour is important for the dynamics and evolution of the Earth. Here, we investigate the strength of twin boundaries from 0 to… read more here.
