Beyond velocity: a causal quality- and security-sensitive schedule performance index for AI-assisted software projects

Traditional schedule performance index (SPI) measures can misrepresent software project status when accelerated visible delivery hides deferred quality assurance, technical-debt remediation, and security-hardening work. This study proposes the causal quality- and security-sensiti...

Modulatory effects of branched-chain amino acid supplementation on neuroendocrine disturbances following traumatic brain injury in rats

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is frequently accompanied by neuroendocrine disturbances involving the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid (HPT) axis and vitamin D–calcium–phosphorus homeostasis. Despite increasing interest in nutritional strategies after TBI, the effects of branched-cha...

Drought-induced physiological, biochemical, phytochemical, and yield-related trait variations among populations of Satureja rechingeri Jamzad

Satureja rechingeri Jamzad, an endemic aromatic species of Iran with high essential oil and phenolic potential, is of considerable pharmaceutical and ecological importance; however, its physiological and biochemical adaptations in response to drought stress across different popul...

Hepatic steatosis assessed by transient elastography in patients with significant coronary artery disease: a cross-sectional study

While metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and coronary artery disease (CAD) share metabolic risk factors, it remains unclear whether the anatomical severity of CAD predicts the severity of hepatic steatosis or fibrosis. This study aimed to estimate MA...

Development a novel in silico mRNA vaccine against Clostridium difficile

Clostridium difficile , a toxin-producing bacterium, can lead to conditions ranging from mild diarrhea to severe pseudomembranous colitis. Our research introduces an innovative strategy for developing a multi-epitope mRNA vaccine using in-silico methods targeting proteins involve...

Effect of Heating Tube Configuration on Hydrogen Production via Propane Steam Reforming: A Numerical Study

The hydrogen energy has received considerable attention in recent years due to escalating global concerns over climate change. Hydrogen production relies mainly on steam reforming, an endothermic process that requires external heat. Because of this, the rate of heat transfer with...
