Clinical evaluation of porcelain‐veneered zirconia crowns with 3D‐printed textured cores: A preliminary randomized clinical trial

Abstract Purpose Porcelain‐veneered zirconia crowns (PVZCs) provide the opacity required to mask discolored substrates and translucency needed for a natural appearance. Although in vitro studies have demonstrated that three‑dimensionally (3D)‑printed textures on zirconia cores ca...

Star Wars at Fifty

This symposium celebrates the 50th anniversary of Star Wars (1977) with nineteen short essays from scholars who discuss its meaning, impact, and legacy. The essays examine the migrations and manifestations of the Star Wars universe across media, including animation, video games,...

Deadly dates: The relationship between holy days and terrorism

How do terror groups make strategic decisions regarding when to time their attacks? This study examines the logic underpinning attack timing and argues that non-state groups weigh the benefits of amplified psychological impacts during focal points for violence against the costs o...

Older adult memory for moral transgressions: retrieval goals and social connectedness

Objectives When evaluating immoral behaviors, older adults focus less on fictional agent’s intentions than outcomes. It is unclear whether this behavior is driven by age-related cognitive decline or motivational shifts. We used a novel paradigm to determine whether older adults c...

DRtool: An Interactive Tool for Analyzing High-Dimensional Clusterings

When faced with new data, we often conduct a cluster analysis to obtain a better understanding of the data's structure and the archetypical samples present in the data. However, the increases in data complexity and dimensionality have made this step very tricky. The large proport...

Ecolinguistics in the United States

Abstract This article presents the personal narratives of five United States-based ecolinguists along with a discussion of contemporary ecolinguistics and possibilities for continued growth. The narratives illustrate the rich interdisciplinary diversity of the expanding field, as...

Test–Retest Reliability of Core Lexicon Analysis

Purpose: We examined the test-retest reliability of core lexicon analysis for healthy control participants (HCP) and individuals with aphasia (IWA) to facilitate research and clinical implementation of discourse analysis.Methods: Transcripts from 50 HCP and 61 IWA [from the Aphas...

Vocal Loudness and Stability as Behavioral Indicators of Surgeons’ Non-Technical Skills

Non-technical skills (NTS) are essential for safe surgical teamwork, while objective measures of how surgeons communicate remain limited. This pilot study examined whether sentence-level vocal loudness and stability distinguish simulated good- and bad-NTS conditions and identifie...

BR-bodies link RNA homeostasis to stress tolerance and intracellular fitness in Brucella

ABSTRACT Bacterial gene expression depends on the coordinated regulation of RNA synthesis, processing, and decay. The conserved RNA degradosome scaffold, ribonuclease E (RNase E), assembles into phase-separated bacterial ribonucleoprotein bodies (BR-bodies) through its C-terminal...

Performing Neurotypicality: A Concept Explication of Autistic Masking as Strategic Identity Communication

Autistic masking, defined as the suppression of natural behaviors and performance of neurotypical communication patterns, is increasingly recognized as prevalent and psychologically costly. However, research reflects diverse terminological and theoretical approaches, as well as v...

How ventures maintain stakeholder support amidst operational legitimacy threats

Abstract Research Summary We explore how ventures mitigate operational legitimacy threats— threats that originate within the venture and challenge claims relating to the venture's ability to deliver on its promised value proposition . Through an inductive study of four ventures w...

The silent pandemic: the overlooked toll of stroke compared to COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic will be remembered as one of the defining health crises of the modern era. The World Health Organization reported approximately 7 million deaths attributed to COVID-19 globall...

Efficient septum formation is essential for chromosome segregation in Bacillus subtilis when SMC function is impaired

ABSTRACT Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complexes play conserved roles in chromosome organization, segregation, and repair in all domains of life. In Bacillus subtilis , SMC is required for the segregation of newly replicated origins. To investigate whether other pro...

SPIRIT-CONSORT-ELM: element-level annotated dataset and large language model approach for assessing randomized controlled trial reporting

Abstract Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are central to assessing the benefits and harms of interventions, but incomplete reporting undermines their verifiability and usefulness. Although SPIRIT and CONSORT reporting guidelines promote complete reporting of RCT protocols and...

Evaluation of postural control during quiet standing and aiming tasks in professional and novice archers

Postural stability is essential for archery performance, as reduced center of pressure (COP) fluctuations enable precise bow alignment and shot accuracy. Although prior studies have shown that professional archers exhibit smaller COP displacements and variability than novices, th...

Invertible fusion categories

Abstract A tensor category $$\mathcal C$$ C over a field $$\mathbb K$$ K is said to be invertible if there’s a tensor category $$\mathcal D$$ D such that $$\mathcal C \boxtimes \mathcal D$$ C ⊠ D is Morita equivalent to $$\textrm{Vec}_{\mathbb K}$$ Vec K . When $$\mathbb K$$ K is...

Self-Assembly of Ordered Pt Complexes with Bidentate Ligands from Solution onto Graphite Surfaces

Abstract Metal–ligand coordination offers a versatile platform for programming on-surface nanostructures with well-defined geometries and tunable coordination environments that are directly relevant to the design of ligand-stabilized single-atom catalysts. While numerous studies...

Relative cyclotomic structures and equivariant complex cobordism

Abstract We describe a structure on a commutative ring (pre)cyclotomic spectrum that gives rise to a (pre)cyclotomic structure on topological Hochschild homology () relative to its underlying commutative ring spectrum. This lets us construct relative to , denoted , and we prove s...

Exploratory integrative analysis of infant gut microbiome and metabolome suggests diet- and microbiome-derived metabolites associated with childhood asthma

Abstract Background Early-life gut microbiome composition has been linked to childhood asthma risk, but the metabolic pathways underlying this association remain unclear. Objective To integrate infant gut microbiome and metabolome data to identify pathways associated with asthma...

Major adverse cardiac events and mortality associated with ADHD and its treatment in adults with type 2 diabetes: a multi-national cohort study

Abstract Background Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been linked to elevated risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the impact of ADHD and ADHD medication use on prognosis and health outcomes in T2D remains unclear. This study investigates the associations of...
