Head and neck cancer (HNC) comprises a heterogeneous group of malignancies with substantial variation in incidence, risk factors, and outcomes across populations. Existing studies are often limited by regional scope or lack integration of epidemiological, clinical, and molecular...
Gendered migration, sexualised vulnerability and embodied care among migrant women in Spain
Migrant women's health is often analysed through access to services, legal entitlement and barriers to care. A wider literature has also examined migrant women's health with a focus on gender, violence, care and racialisation. These dimensions matter, but they do not fully explai...

Effect of carbon addition on Al2W3O12-based electrodes for lithium-ion batteries
Abstract Al 2 W 3 O 12 belongs to the A 2 M 3 O 12 family of ceramics, which is known for its unique mechanical and thermal properties. Due to its low positive thermal expansion, this phase is a good candidate for applications that require high resistance to thermal shock. In add...

Effect of External Electric Fields on Defective AlN/GrapheneHeterobilayer: A First-Principles Study
Abstract Graphene-based van der Waals heterobilayers play a fundamental role in the fabrication of optoelectronic, micro- and nanoelectronic, and spintronic devices. In this paper, four new stackings for the (4 × 4)-AlN/(5 × 5)-graphene denominated as AA, AA′, A′B, and A′B′ are i...
