The One-Dimensional Compressible Navier–Stokes Equations in Critical Regularity Spaces

Abstract. We are concerned with the barotropic compressible Navier–Stokes equations on the real line. Our primary goal is to establish the global well-posedness in a critical regularity framework in the case where the initial data are small perturbations of a stable constant stat...

The rise of carnivoran mammals in Europe through the lens of body mass

Carnivoran mammals (cats, dogs, bears, seals, etc.) and their kin radiated during the Palaeogene, among other carnivorous clades (hyaenodonts, mesonychians, and oxyaenodonts). This radiation has often been framed as a competition ultimately won by carnivorans, but the data suppor...

Peptide-targeted cubosome and hexosome nanoassemblies mitigate mitochondrial dysfunction in a MitoPark model

Mitochondrial dysfunction is a primary pathogenic mechanism underlying dopaminergic neuron loss in the nigrostriatal pathway in Parkinson's disease (PD). To investigate mitochondrion-targeted therapeutic strategies, we utilized the MitoPark mouse model, in which mitochondrial tra...

A Blockchain-Based Tokenize–Track–Trace (3T) Architecture for Oracle-Anchored Supply Chain Traceability Using Dynamic NFTs and Smart Contracts

This paper introduces an approach based on blockchain and dynamic Non-Fungible Tokens (dNFTs) for transparent supply chain management (SCM) through end-to-end traceability and automation. The approach addresses three recurring limitations of blockchain-enabled SCM: physical-to-di...

Topologically Engineered DNA Origami: Responsive Locking of DNA Quadrilateral for Biosensing Application

Abstract DNA nanotechnology offers unique opportunities for creating various accurate and responsive nanostructures. Nevertheless, large-scale conformational changes with high geometric precision and efficiency remain major challenges. Herein we report a topologically engineered...

No gender differences in predictive processing

Abstract Statistical learning, defined as the implicit extraction of environmental regularities, is considered a fundamental cognitive mechanism that supports predictive processing across individuals, domains, and species. However, whether it is modulated by gender remains unclea...

Drawing the line: Clarifying fungal allorecognition from HET domains to het genes to heterokaryon incompatibility

The iconic networks of filamentous fungi are connected through hyphal fusions. While fusion is beneficial among hyphae from the same fungal individual, fusion between individuals (i.e., heterokaryon formation) risks infection by parasites or pathogens. Across fungi, multiple sets...

Agronomic and socio-economic assessments of the roles of earthworms and termite mounds in paddy fields

Bioturbation, the physical disturbance and mixing of soil layers caused by the activity of living organisms, such as earthworms and termites, plays a critical role in shaping soil structure, enhancing nutrient cycling, and regulating ecosystem dynamics. In paddy fields, earthworm...

Vancomycin optimised dosing regimens for critically ill patients receiving renal replacement therapy

Optimal dosing of vancomycin in critically ill patients receiving renal replacement therapy (RRT) is uncertain due to high pharmacokinetic variability. We aimed to develop individualised vancomycin dosing recommendations that optimise efficacy while minimising toxicity. Prospecti...

Imperfect detection and sampling effort shape ground beetle (Carabidae) diversity indicators in large-scale monitoring

Soil biodiversity indicators are increasingly used to inform environmental assessment and policy, yet their robustness is often constrained by heterogeneous sampling designs and imperfect species detection. Surface-active arthropods, such as ground beetles (Carabidae), are widely...

Chemical desorption of methanol induced by hydrogen abstraction–addition cycles on cold grain surfaces

Abstract We report ultra-high vacuum experiments on the non-thermal desorption of methanol (CH3OH) from cold dust-grain analogues under hydrogen-atom bombardment. Monolayer methanol films on polycrystalline gold, compact amorphous solid water (ASW, 10 ML) and 13CO ice (2 ML) are...

Nonfermenting Gram-Negative Bacilli Other Than Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter Species in Pediatric Blood Cultures: A Multicenter European Analysis

BACKGROUND: Nonfermenting Gram-negative bacilli other than Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter species are increasingly recognized as opportunistic pathogens in pediatric populations, yet their epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance remain poorly defined. METHODS: We conducted a mul...

Case report of transoral excision of a right buccal/jugal lipoma

Introduction: Lipomas are benign mesenchymal tumors that rarely occur in the oral cavity. Lesions arising in the jugal region may pose diagnostic and surgical challenges due to their anatomical location. We report a case of a jugal lipoma successfully managed through a transoral...

Contribution of One‐Electron Oxidation of Purine and Pyrimidine Bases to the Photo‐ and Radiation‐Induced Damage to Cellular DNA

One‐electron oxidants that include type I photosensitizers, biologically relevant carbonate anion radical generators, and high intensity UVC nanosecond lasers are able to ionize in aqueous solution purine and pyrimidine nucleobases. The survey is aimed at critically reviewing the...

Development and Characterization of Functionally Graded Sisal/Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites

Structural applications require materials that provide an optimal balance of strength, durability, and sustainability. This study develops functionally graded sisal/glass fiber-reinforced polymer composites and evaluates their tensile, compressive, and flexural properties, as wel...

Accelerating Translation of NK Cell Therapies to the Clinic: A European Perspective

Adoptive immunotherapies have emerged as a promising strategy in the treatment of hematological malignancies. To date, seven chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell products have obtained market authorization in Europe for B-cell malignancies, where they have revolutionized treatm...

Reduced Complexity Model Intercomparison Project phase 3: experimental protocol for coordinated constraining and evaluation of reduced-complexity models

Abstract. Reduced-Complexity Models (RCMs) are a critical tool for synthesising climate science knowledge and providing climate projections for a wide range of emissions scenarios. The Reduced-Complexity Model Intercomparison Project (RCMIP) provides a framework for the coordinat...

Multi‐Scale Investigation of Supramolecular Organogels Assembled From Pt(II)‐Salphen Complexes

Supramolecular metallogels based on platinum(II) complexes have attracted growing interest due to their tunable photophysical properties. However, the potential of Pt(II)-salphen complexes as low-molecular-weight gelators remains largely unexplored. Here, we report a series of Pt...

Very‐Long‐Period Seismic Signals During Lateral Dike Propagation at Piton de La Fournaise Volcano

Abstract We report a previously undocumented sequence of very long period (VLP) signals preceding the September 2022 eruption at Piton de la Fournaise. These events occurred during lateral magma propagation and exhibit quasi‐periodic sawtooth‐shaped displacement transients. Seism...

Non-invasive multiparametric characterization of essential thrombocythemia, premyelofibrosis, and overt myelofibrosis

Among myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), prefibrotic myelofibrosis (preMF) was defined as a distinct entity from essential thrombocythemia (ET) and primary overt myelofibrosis (PMF) since the 2016 revision of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification, while precise char...
