Coordination Costs and Homelessness Housing Form Choice

ABSTRACT Local implementers have discretion in selecting forms of housing for the homeless, yet the determinants of these choices remain poorly understood. Using the institutional collective action (ICA) framework, this study examines California's Homekey program to assess how co...

Characterization of multidrug-resistant Salmonella Typhimurium isolates from Korean swine farms and plasmids harboring fluoroquinolone and third-generation cephalosporin resistance genes

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is a major foodborne pathogen, and the overuse of antimicrobials has contributed to the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains. Resistance to third-generation cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones is of particular concern because of t...

Rapid Estimation of Global Sea Surface Temperatures From Sparse Streaming In Situ Observations

Abstract Reconstructing high‐resolution sea surface temperatures (SST) from staggered SST measurements is essential for analyzing earth system processes. However, when SST measurements are sparse, the resulting inferred SST fields are rather inaccurate. Here, we show that Sparse...

Feeding regime alters mitochondrial metabolism in beef skeletal muscle

Abstract Plane of nutrition influences animal growth rate and muscle fiber composition, potentially through altering skeletal muscle metabolism. The objective of this study was to evaluate changes in skeletal muscle metabolism in response to altering diet without changes in growt...

European Network for Optimization of Veterinary Antimicrobial Therapy (ENOVAT) guidelines for antimicrobial and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use in bovine respiratory disease

<ns5:p> Background Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is a major cause of morbidity, mortality, impaired welfare, production loss, and antimicrobial use in cattle. These European Network for Optimization of Veterinary Antimicrobial Therapy (ENOVAT) guidelines provide evidence-based...

Dopant-MediatedStokes Shifting in Perovskite QuantumDots for Enhanced UV-Stable Organic Photodetection

Abstract Ultraviolet (UV) photodetection is critical for applications spanning environmental monitoring to optical communication; however, the high photon energy of UV light introduces inherent trade-offs between sensitivity and operational stability. In particular, organic photo...

Comparative GC–MS Phytochemical Profiling of Ficus Capensis Leaves and Eucalyptus Camaldulensis Stem Bark Reveals Bioactive Metabolites with Potential Relevance to Diabetic Foot Infections

Diabetic foot infections (DFIs) remain difficult to manage due to persistent wounds and antimicrobial resistance, necessitating the exploration of new, chemically defined antimicrobial agents. This study investigates the chemical composition of leaf and stem bark extracts from Fi...

A rainbow in the dark? The electoral impact of elite divisions within the ruling party in dictatorships

Dictators often rule through political parties. While they might bolster regime survival, ruling parties can also provide a means for party members to defy the ruler. This article investigates the electoral consequences of elite divisions within ruling parties. Using cross-nation...

Correlation of AHR Activation-Induced Suppression of PWM-Stimulated IgG and IgG-Triggered Signaling in Human PBMCs

Background/Objectives: Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) ligands are known to suppress antibody production. However, it remains unclear whether this suppression translates into altered antibody-mediated Fcγ receptor signaling in human cells. This study aimed to investigate the effe...

Supplementation with Yellow Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) Larvae Grown on Deoxynivalenol-Contaminated Substrate Improves Growth and Gut Integrity in Broilers

Deoxynivalenol (DON), a Fusarium mycotoxin frequently detected in poultry feeds, impairs broiler health by damaging gut integrity, altering immune response, and compromising growth performance. Insect-derived proteins, such as those from yellow mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) larvae...
