Outdoor Environmental Risk Factors for Paediatric Ragweed Sensitisation: A Formal Model Comparison

Background/Objectives: Ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) is a major aeroallergen in Central and Eastern Europe. Croatian children in regions with twofold difference in pollen exposure show near-identical sensitisation prevalence (the “Zagreb paradox”), and an earlier analysis fou...

Self-Verification Lacks Self-Nature: Four Consecutive Measurements of an Author-Mutation Test Framework Failing Under Blind Fresh-Agent Audit

We built two small Python libraries (minpoint and ee_bot) whose stated purpose is to detect ungrounded groundings in a target computation, using mutation testing to verify that the detection mechanism has actual force. In four consecutive rounds — one round on minpoint and three...

We Should Be Planning for a World Without Jobs — Not Just Fearing It: From a Work-Based Society to a Purposeful One

This article proposes a framework for a post-work "purposeful society" enabled by AI, robotics, and automation — where labor becomes optional rather than mandatory, funded through a non-transferable monthly credit system rather than traditional wages. It addresses the central obj...

Continuous reference curves for hematology and biochemistry analytes in pregnancy – a prospective study

OBJECTIVES: Pregnancy involves dynamic metabolic changes that cannot be accurately interpreted using population reference intervals (RI). The aim was to develop continuous reference curves for common hematology and biochemistry laboratory analytes in pregnancy and to assess their...
