Abstract
Suppressing errors is the central challenge for useful quantum computing1, requiring quantum error correction (QEC)2-6 for large-scale processing. However, the overhead in the realization of error-corrected 'logical' qubits, in which information is encoded across many physical qubits for redundancy2-4, poses substantial challenges to large-scale logical quantum computing. Here we report the realization of a programmable quantum processor based on encoded logical qubits operating with up to 280 physical qubits. Using logical-level control and a zoned architecture in reconfigurable neutral-atom arrays7, our system combines high two-qubit gate fidelities8, arbitrary connectivity7,9, as well as fully programmable single-qubit rotations and mid-circuit readout10-15. Operating this logical processor with various types of encoding, we demonstrate improvement of a two-qubit logic gate by scaling surface-code6 distance from d = 3 to d = 7, preparation of colour-code qubits with break-even fidelities5, fault-tolerant creation of logical Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states and feedforward entanglement teleportation, as well as operation of 40 colour-code qubits. Finally, using 3D [[8,3,2]] code blocks16,17, we realize computationally complex sampling circuits18 with up to 48 logical qubits entangled with hypercube connectivity19 with 228 logical two-qubit gates and 48 logical CCZ gates20. We find that this logical encoding substantially improves algorithmic performance with error detection, outperforming physical-qubit fidelities at both cross-entropy benchmarking and quantum simulations of fast scrambling21,22. These results herald the advent of early error-corrected quantum computation and chart a path towards large-scale logical processors.

Abstract
The objective of this prospective pilot study was to evaluate the response of HIV-infected patients with asymptomatic syphilis to one of two intensive antibiotic treatment regimens. Thirty-one HIV-infected patients with serum rapid plasma reagin titre ≥1:4 and no clinical findings of syphilis were randomized to receive daily intramuscular injections of ceftriaxone or procaine penicillin (plus oral probenecid) for 15 days; 24 returned for follow-up study. Seven of 10 (70%) procaine penicillin-treated patients and 10 of 14 (71%) ceftriaxone-treated patients had a ≥4-fold decline in RPR ( P=0.94); two penicillin-treated and one ceftriaxone-treated patient relapsed. Two patients failed ceftriaxone therapy. Three penicillin-treated, and two ceftriaxone-treated patients were serofast. Serological responses were similar in those patients with and without asymptomatic neurosyphilis. There was no difference in the serologic response to daily treatment with ceftriaxone vs that with procaine penicillin plus probenecid; both treatments were associated with comparatively high rates of serological non-response and relapse.
