Frailty is associated with increased mortality both before and after liver transplantation (LT). There are no standardized exercise programs, in particular home‐based programs (HBEPs), for patients awaiting LT. The aim was to investigate the feasibility of such a program Patients were randomly selected from Birmingham LT waiting list provided 12‐week HBEP, including average daily step (ADS) targets twice‐weekly resistance exercises. Feasibility based on patient eligibility (≥66% list),...

A bstract We derive the generalized second law (GSL) for arbitrary cuts of Killing horizons from perspective crossed-product gravitational algebras, making use a recent proposal by one us construction local algebras. This relies on existence state whose modular flow is geometric horizon. In both free and interacting quantum field theories, such states are guaranteed to exist properties half-sided translations Using identities derived canonical analysis general relativity null surfaces, we...
As a result of the increasing incidence cirrhosis in UK, more patients with chronic liver disease are being considered for elective non-hepatic surgery. A historical reluctance to offer surgery such stems from general perceptions poor postoperative outcomes. While this is true those decompensated cirrhosis, selected compensated early-stage can have good outcomes after careful risk assessment. Well-recognised risks include anaesthesia, bleeding, infections, impaired wound healing, acute...

Retransplantation candidates are disadvantaged owing to lack of good-quality liver grafts. Strategies that can facilitate transplantation suboptimal grafts into retransplant require investigation. The aim was determine whether late retransplantation be performed safely with grafts, following normothermic machine perfusion.A prospectively enrolled group patients who required received a graft preserved via perfusion. This compared both historical and contemporaneous cohorts patient by cold...
Black holes provide a window into the microscopic structure of spacetime in quantum gravity. Recently information contained Hawking radiation has been calculated, verifying key aspect consistency black hole evaporation with mechanical unitarity. This calculation relied crucially on recent progress understanding emergence bulk from boundary holographic description. Spacetime wormholes have played an important role underpinnings this result, and precision study such wormholes, other contexts,...
Abstract Background Too often, dementia research is conducted in silos without thorough integration and the involvement of people with lived experiences, care professionals Third Sector. Research can also get lost academic publications, reaching those benefiting most from evidence. The aim this methods evaluation paper was to outline aims, components public‐facing ‐engaging Liverpool Dementia & Ageing Forum, provide a blueprint for setting up similar communities practice.

Introduction Liver disease is the third most common cause of premature mortality in UK. failure accelerates frailty, resulting skeletal muscle atrophy, functional decline and an associated risk liver transplant waiting list mortality. However, there limited research investigating impact exercise on patient outcomes pre post transplantation. The waitlist period for patients listed transplantation provides a unique opportunity to provide assess interventions such as prehabilitation. Methods...
In AdS/CFT we consider a class of bulk geometric quantities inside the entanglement wedge called reflected minimal surfaces. The areas these surfaces are dual to entropy associated canonical purification (the GNS state) that dub entropy. From point view, show half area surface gives reinterpretation notion cross-section. We prove some general properties and introduce novel replica trick in CFTs for studying it. duality is established using recently introduced approach holographic modular...
We present a summary of recent progress and remaining challenges in applying the methods ideas quantum information theory to study field gravity. Important topics themes include: entanglement entropy QFTs what it reveals about RG flows, symmetries, phases; scrambling, spreading, chaos; state preparation complexity; classical simulation QFTs; role holographic dualities. also highlight ways which science benefits from synergy between fields.
The holographic principle suggests that the low energy effective field theory of gravity, as used to describe perturbative quantum fields about some background has far too many states. It is then natural any error correcting code with such a subspace not isometric. We discuss how this framework can naturally arise in an algebraic QFT treatment family CFT large-$N$ limit described by single trace sector. show isometric be recovered $N \rightarrow \infty$ when acting on fixed states Hilbert...
. The diagnosis of young-onset dementia presents significant challenges both for the person and their families, which often differ from faced with late-onset dementia. Evidence experience service users carers tends to reveal a negative appraisal care received, citing longer times, poor clinician knowledge lack age-appropriate care. However, evidence looking into staff experiences supporting someone is relatively scarce. aim this study was explore reflections health social who support people...
We prove the existence of a universal recovery channel that approximately recovers states on v. Neumann subalgebra when change in relative entropy, with respect to fixed reference state, is small. Our result generalization previous results applied type-I algebras by Junge at al. [arXiv:1509.07127]. broadly follow their proof strategy but consider here arbitrary algebras, where qualitatively new issues arise. hinge construction certain analytic vectors and computations/estimations...
Since the mid-eighties there has been an accumulation of metallic materials whose thermodynamic and transport properties differ significantly from those predicted by Fermi liquid theory. Examples these so-called non-Fermi liquids include strange metal phase high transition temperature cuprates, heavy fermion systems near a quantum transition. We report on class discovered using gauge/gravity duality. The low energy behavior is shown to be governed nontrivial infrared (IR) fixed point which...
