When networking pays unequally: proactive personality, gender and career satisfaction in Vietnam and the United States

Purpose This study investigates how proactive personality shapes employees’ career networking and career satisfaction across two national contexts and whether the career returns to networking differ by gender. Drawing on the social role theory, we argue that proactive employees a...

A Comprehensive Methodology for Estimating Yearly Plastic Pollution Loads in Rivers

Abstract Plastic pollution in freshwater systems represents a major global concern, as rivers serve as critical pathways between land-based sources and marine environments. Yet, inconsistencies are observed between estimated plastic inputs from land and concentrations in the ocea...

Photo‐Activated Merging Cascades in Droplet Swarms Upon Synergistic Solvation of Surfactants

ABSTRACT Chemically active droplets at fluid interfaces provide versatile building blocks for dynamic matter, yet most systems are limited to behavior encoded within individual droplets or simple pairwise interactions. Here, we report a strategy to generate non‐linear, cascading...

Soft-tissue thickness changes following bimaxillary surgery in skeletal class II malocclusion

OBJECTIVES: This retrospective cohort study evaluated regional facial soft-tissue thickness changes after bimaxillary surgery in skeletal Class Ⅱ patients and assessed their associations with skeletal movement and patient-related factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Class Ⅱ patients t...

Bacteriophage inactivation to prevent carry-over in preclinical assays with mycobacteria

Abstract Background Bacteriophage carry-over, the continued lytic activity of residual phages after experimental sampling, poses a significant challenge in bacteriophage research, potentially skewing experimental results, particularly in the context of preclinical studies where p...
