Exploring user trust in generative AI feedback in academic writing: a psychometric network analysis

Generative artificial intelligence is increasingly embedded in the academic writing practices of learners of English as a foreign language, yet research has commonly represented learner evaluations through construct averages. This exploratory mixed-methods study used psychometric...

Buffering and burdening patterns of meta‑inner humor beliefs in the affect–distress association across levels of mindfulness and comic style profiles

Mental distress symptomatology continues to be a central focus in clinical psychology and psychotherapy. Following the buffer-or-burden framework, the present study examined the relationship between affect and mental distress through adaptive and maladaptive meta-inner humor beli...

Altered inter-joint coordination strategies of the lower extremity and pelvis in elite rowers with chronic low back pain

Rowing is a highly coordinated, cyclic task that requires efficient inter-joint coordination across the lower extremities and pelvis to optimize force transmission and performance. Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is prevalent among elite rowers and may alter neuromuscular control st...

A rare presentation of metastatic thymic carcinoma mimicking pheochromocytoma and Von Hippel–Lindau syndrome: a case report

Metastatic thymic carcinoma is a rare and aggressive malignancy that may present with atypical clinical and biochemical features, posing significant diagnostic challenges. We report the first documented case of metastatic thymic carcinoma mimicking both pheochromocytoma and Von H...

Thickness-driven optimization of tungsten first walls for tritium breeding with 14.1 MeV fusion neutron irradiation

Mono-energetic fusion neutrons produced by the primary deuterium–tritium fuel reactions in tokamaks play a critical role in the performance and safety of the first wall and the blanket system. Through energy deposition and the generation of secondary particles and photons, these...

Selenium-containing polycaprolactone 3D-printed scaffold for osteogenesis enhancement and bone healing

Bone fractures present significant surgical and healthcare challenges and require innovative bone regeneration strategies. Current research explores selenium (Se)-enhanced polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds for improved defect repair. Selenium, known for its antioxidant, anti-infla...
