Who cares for the caregivers? Health check-up participation among mothers caring for children with developmental disabilities in Korea: findings from the National Health Insurance Service database and a nationwide survey

Caregiving burden may hamper caregivers’ access to healthcare services. This study assessed participation rates of national health check-ups among mothers caring for children with developmental disabilities (MCCDD) in Korea and explored reasons for non-participation. We analyzed...

Facial Atopic Dermatitis Treated with Chitosan

Background/Objectives: Facial atopic dermatitis (AD) is burdensome, and facial skin is vulnerable to steroid-related adverse effects. This study describes the clinical use, tolerability, and photographic response to topical 2% chitosan gel in a consecutive case series. Methods: T...

Artificial Intelligence-Driven Real-Time Restoration of a Cultural Heritage Analog Digital Twin Model

The preservation of cultural heritage structures is increasingly challenged by environmental degradation, aging, and human activities. This study presents an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven framework for real-time monitoring, crack detection, and restoration planning within a...

Fabrication and Characterization of Hydrogels From NaOH ‐Dissolved Lignocellulose and Carboxymethyl Cellulose

ABSTRACT Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) has been developed as a renewable material for highly absorbent hydrogels, but excessive swelling and insufficient network stability have limited its practical applications. Here, organosolv bamboo pulp containing approximately 20 wt% residu...

Exploring the role of automated feedback in programming education: a systematic literature review

Automated feedback systems have become increasingly integral to programming education, where learners engage in iterative cycles of code construction, testing, and refinement. Despite its wider integration in practices and technical advancements into AI, research in this area rem...

Metal–Organic Framework–Spinel Fe‐ZIF‐8@NiAl 2 O 4 Heterostructures Enabling Efficient and Durable Alkaline Water Splitting

Spinel metal oxides such as NiAl 2 O 4 are attractive electrocatalysts for alkaline water splitting but are often limited by low surface area, poor conductivity, and sluggish reaction kinetics. Herein, we report a bifunctional MOF–spinel heterostructured catalyst, Fe‐ZIF‐8@NiAl 2...
