An arXiv preprint reports steeper survival curves and modestly higher relative effectiveness for protons than X-rays in two cell-line models. The Bern Medical Cyclotron setup was feasible for conventional-dose-rate laboratory work, but the small dataset, 12.8% proton dose uncertainty and conflicting sensitivity statements call for further validation.

An exploratory analysis grouped 8,609 normal adult anterior-corneal maps into three shape clusters, with a defocus-related coefficient providing the clearest separation. The authors propose the clusters as candidate categories for future biosynthetic implants, but implant selection and patient outcomes were not tested.

A staged software validation found that HRV Studio closely matched NeuroKit2 and Kubios for many measures when interval sequences and processing settings were aligned, but differences grew for VLF, total power and very short recordings.

Laboratory tests found that the Exradin A30's charge-collection efficiency and polarity correction changed with dose per pulse and differed between grounded and ungrounded virtual water; the authors conclude it is suitable for UHDR reference dosimetry when appropriate CCE corrections are applied.
