Vitamin A and D Status, Selected Genetic Variants, and Allergy-Related Phenotypes: An Exploratory Retrospective Study

Background/Objectives: Vitamins A and D are critical regulators of immune function, and genetic variation in their metabolic pathways may influence vitamin status and immune responses. This study investigated the combined nutrigenetic roles of vitamins A and D and their associati...

Percussive Vibration Therapy as an Adjunct to Conventional Physiotherapy in Chronic Non-Specific Low Back Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Background/Objectives: Hand-held percussive vibration therapy (PVT) is widely used in musculoskeletal rehabilitation, yet its incremental benefit beyond an active physiotherapy program for chronic non-specific low back pain (CNLBP) is unclear. We investigated whether PVT added to...

Prediction of Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) Compressive Strength in Structural Applications Using Machine Learning: A Comprehensive Evaluation via Multiple Random Seeds and Hyperparameter Optimization

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is increasingly being used in academic and commercial applications due to its superior mechanical properties, high durability, and long service life. To ensure that UHPC can be reliably used in structural applications, it is important to pre...

Human as Relation: How Do We Shape Our Relationship with AI from a Dialogue Perspective?

This study examines how human-AI relationships can be reinterpreted through a dialogue-centred perspective within the framework of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Building on Bødker’s three waves of HCI, we trace the evolving role of the human from a cognitive “factor” to an in...
