    Abstract Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a very common disease that is accompanied by various complications in the affected person. UTI triggers diverse inflammatory reactions locally in the infected urinary bladder and kidney, causing tissue destruction and organ failure. Moreover, systemic responses in the entire body carry the risk of urosepsis with far-reaching consequences. Understanding the cell-, organ-, and systemic mechanisms in UTI are crucial for prevention, early intervention, and current therapeutic approaches. This review summarizes the scientific advances over the last 10 years concerning pathogenesis, prevention, rapid diagnosis, and new treatment approaches. We also highlight the impact of the immune system and potential new therapies to reduce progressive and recurrent UTI.

    Abstract An option is a financial agreement between two parties to trade two assets. One party is given the right, but not the obligation, to complete the swap before a specified termination time. In todays financial markets, an option is considered an asset which can itself be transferred: while an option is active, one party can sell its rights (or obligations) to another. Todays blockchains support simple options in the form of cross-chain atomic swap protocols where one party has the choice whether to complete the swap. The options implemented by these cross-chain protocols, are not, however, transferable. This paper proposes novel distributed protocols for transferable cross-chain options, where both option owners and providers can sell their positions to third parties. The protocol ensures that none of the parties can be cheated, that no unauthorized party can interfere, and that the transfer succeeds if the buyer and seller faithfully follow the protocol.

    Abstract Automated market makers (AMMs) are automata that trade electronic assets at rates set by mathematical formulas. AMMs are usually implemented by smart contracts on blockchains. In practice, AMMs are often composed: and outputs from AMMs can be directed into other compatible AMMs. This paper proposes a mathematical model for AMM composition. We define sequential and parallel composition operators for AMMs in a way that ensures that AMMs are closed under composition, in a way that works for "higher-dimensional" AMMs that manage more than two asset classes, and so the composition of AMMs in "stable" states remains stable.

    Abstract Automated market makers (AMMs) are smart contracts that automatically trade electronic assets according to a mathematical formula. This paper investigates how an AMM's formula affects the interests of liquidity providers, who endow the AMM with assets, and traders, who exchange one asset for another at the AMM's rates. *Linear slippage* measures how a trade's size affects the trader's return, *angular slippage* measures how a trade's size affects the subsequent market price, *divergence loss* measures the opportunity cost of providers' investments, and *load* balances the costs to traders and providers. We give formal definitions for these costs, show that they obey certain conservation laws: these costs can be shifted around but never fully eliminated. We analyze how these costs behave under *composition*, when simple individual AMMs are linked to form more complex networks of AMMs.
