Ultrasound-Targeted Microbubble Destruction Improves the Migration and Homing of Mesenchymal Stem Cells after Myocardial Infarction by Upregulating SDF-1/CXCR4: A Pilot Study by Lu Li, Shengzheng Wu, Zheng Liu, Zhongxiong Zhuo, Kaibin Tan, Hongmei Xia, Lisha Zhuo, Xiaojun Deng, Yunhua Gao, Yali Xu

“…Ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD) has proven to be promising to improve the homing of MSCs to the ischemic myocardium, but the concrete mechanism remains unclear. We hypothesize that UTMD promotes MSC homing by upregulating SDF-1/CXCR4, and this study was aimed at exploring this potential mechanism. …”

Comparative Analysis of Phase-Field and Intrinsic Cohesive Zone Models for Fracture Simulations in Multiphase Materials with Interfaces: Investigation of the Influence of the Micro... by Rasoul Najafi Koopas, Shahed Rezaei, Natalie Rauter, Richard Ostwald, Rolf Lammering

“…The thorough assessment of these modeling techniques indicates that the CPFM approach stands out as the most effective computational model, provided that the thickness of the interface zone is not significantly smaller than that of the other phases. In materials like concrete, which contain interfaces within their microstructure, the interface thickness is notably small when compared to other phases. …”

Specifics of Foreign Assistance Allocation under the Trump Administration: From Inauguration to ‘Ukrainegate’ by V. I. Bartenev

“…The conclusion is drawn that from the very beginning Donald Trump had promoted an extremely pragmatic, transactionalist approach to foreign assistance with aid allocation regarded as a mutually beneficial transaction meant to bring concrete and often short-term dividends. Adherence to this approach manifested itself in various forms — in the Predisent’s public statements, in the rhetoric of his administration’s key doctrinal documents and budget proposals, and also in the White House’s regular attempts (futile though) to cut aid to countries which did not provide anything in return, and to prepare the ground for rescinding the unobligated aid funds appropriated by the Congress. …”

Music Drama as a Christian Parable: Mozart’s <i>Idomeneo</i> by Nils Holger Petersen

“…I argue that <i>Idomeneo</i>, with its historical intention, potentially can have an impact in a cultural theology (or a theologically informed modern worldview), and further, in dialogue with a recent volume discussing the “music of theology”, that such a role for a piece of music must be developed in concrete musical (or music dramatic) contexts, not as a general philosophical contention. …”
