Redox cofactors mediate many enzymatic processes and are increasingly employed in biomedical and energy applications. Exploring the influence of external magnetic fields on redox cofactor chemistry can enhance our understanding of magnetic-field-sensitive biological processes and allow the application of magnetic fields to modulate redox reactions involving cofactors. Through a combination of experiments and modeling, we investigate the influence of magnetic fields on electrochemical reactions in redox cofactor solutions. By employing flavin mononucleotide (FMN) cofactor as a model system, we characterize magnetically induced changes in Faradaic currents. We find that radical pair intermediates have negligible influence on current increases in FMN solution upon application of a magnetic field. The dominant mechanism underlying the observed current increases is the magneto-hydrodynamic effect. We extend our analyses to other diffusion-limited electrochemical reactions of redox cofactor solutions and arrive at similar conclusions, highlighting the opportunity to use this framework in redox cofactor chemistry.
The performance of superconducting qubits is often limited by dissipation and two-level systems (TLS) losses. The dominant sources of these losses are believed to originate from amorphous materials and defects at inte...

BACKGROUD AND OBJECTIVES:As patients with diabetes are at a significantly higher risk of cardiovascular diseases than those without diabetes, it is important to gain a clinical understanding of the differential effects of smoking cessation on several risk factors between patients with and without diabetes.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:Patients who participated in a smoking cessation program received an assessment of the outcomes of interest. The outcomes were changes in metabolic parameters and renal function from baseline to 6-month follow-up after the smoking cessation program.
RESULT:A total of 1954 patients joined the smoking cessation program, and 1381 patients were in the smoking cessation failure (SCF) group and 573 were in the smoking cessation success (SCS) group. The decrease in HbA1c after smoking cessation was only observed in patients with diabetes. Smoking cessation was also associated with a significant decrease in LDL cholesterol in patients with diabetes. In terms of renal function, smoking cessation was associated with an improvement in eGFR, and the trend was similar in patients with and without diabetes.
CONCLUSION:Successful smoking cessation was associated with improvement in renal function. Moreover, it was associated with improvements in HbA1c and LDL cholesterol in patients with diabetes, despite significant weight gain.

The Fractional Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation (FNLS) is an equation that is generally used to describe the interaction of boson particles in the trap potential. This paper discusses the stability of the stationary solution of the FNLS (2+1) dimensional equation using the Newton-Raphson method as a method for determining the stationary solution. The stability of the stationary solution of the FNLS is determined by analyzing the distribution of real-part and imaginary-part of eigenvalues listed on the complex plane. The results obtained in this study are found that the solution to the 1-dimensional FNLS is a stable system. This solution is obtained by analyzing the distribution of eigenvalues in the complex plane, where in the solution to the 1-dimensional FNLS there are only imaginary-part eigenvalues without any real-part eigenvalues. Unlike the case with the solution of the 2-dimensional FNLS equation, the eigenvalues obtained have a real-part of eigenvalues. These eigenvalues represent that the solution to the 2-dimensional FNLS equation is an unstable system. It is an indicator that the soliton which is the solution of the FNLS equation for the 2-dimensional case will be damaged for a certain time.
