Self-reported outcomes and associated factors among patients with cancer completing Mongolian mind-body interaction therapy: a cross-sectional study

Introduction Patients with malignant tumors face physical illness and psychological distress. Mongolian mind-body interaction therapy (MMBIT) is a group-based intervention combining modern psychology with traditional Mongolian medicine. As a complementary oncology approach, MMBIT...

Evaluating the effectiveness of artificial intelligence-generated content and user-generated content in health learning: the roles of cognitive complexity and health information literacy

Purpose Grounded in cognitive load theory and dual process theory, this study aims to investigate how cognitive complexity and health information literacy (HIL) influence users’ cognitive load, perceived learning and cognitive system utilization when acquiring health-related know...

Driving Sustained Green Innovation in Manufacturing: The Role of Technology Convergence Between Digital and Real Economy Industries

Advancing sustained green innovation (SGI) is essential to the green transformation of manufacturing enterprises and sustainable development. Technology convergence between digital and real economy industries (TCDR) reshapes firms’ innovation activities by integrating technologie...

Conceptualizing algorithmic inequality and future agenda. An annual review of information science and technology (ARIST) paper

Abstract The issue of inequality caused by algorithms, termed ‘algorithmic inequality’, has recently attracted scholarly attention in many disciplines due to its profound implications for society. While the body of literature on algorithmic inequality has grown, there remains a l...

Calibrating self-regulated learning: Convergence and divergence in EFL university teachers' and students’ perceptions in blended learning environments

This qualitative case study examines how Chinese EFL university students and teachers perceived self-regulated learning (SRL) in a blended learning environment. Drawing on interviews with 20 students and 18 teachers, reflective journals, and classroom observations, the study iden...

Counting sunflowers with restricted matching number

For H ⊆ ( [ n ] k ) , let ν ( H ) denote its matching number and let d H ( E ) denote the codegree of a ( k − 1 ) -set E . We study the codegree moments c o p ( H ) = ∑ E ∈ ( [ n ] k − 1 ) d H ( E ) p and the number of copies of the k -uniform l -petal sunflower S k , l k − 1 who...

Commuting inequality in urban China: Social stratification, hukou gaps, and city-level variation in estimated peak-hour commutes

Commuting inequality reflects uneven access to housing, jobs, and mobility, yet national evidence on its social patterning in urban China remains limited. We link the 2015 China 1% Population Sample Survey to Baidu Maps API estimates of weekday morning peak-hour travel time to ex...

Behavioral Structure, Activity Rhythm and Relationships to the Conservation and Welfare of Tibetan Fox in Tibet Plateau of China

As a keystone species in alpine ecosystems, the Tibetan fox (Vulpes ferrilata) plays an important role in maintaining ecological processes on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau. Understanding its behavioral structure, activity rhythm, and responses to road-related human disturbance is ess...

Pension Participation and Willingness to Increase Contribution Levels Among Rural Households in China: Evidence from the Chengdu–Chongqing Economic Circle

Against the background of China’s recent rural pension policy environment, this study uses in-person survey data from over 800 rural households in the Chengdu–Chongqing Economic Circle (CCEC) to examine two distinct outcomes: pension participation (current enrollment in the pensi...

RecGPT: A User Intent-Centric Next-Generation LLM-Powered Recommender System in Industrial Practice

Recommender systems are among the most impactful applications of artificial intelligence, serving as critical infrastructure connecting users, merchants, and platforms. However, most industrial systems remain heavily reliant on historical co-occurrence patterns and log-fitting ob...

Quantum-Enhanced Tribunal: Entanglement-Based Identity Persistence Under Four Attacks of Consciousness

This package contains the working paper, a Portuguese translation, and the sanitized reproducibility database for the quantum-enhanced Tribunal v4 experiment. The work validates a quantum extension of the Four Attacks of Consciousness framework on Origin Quantum Wukong WK_C180 re...

In Situ Surface Reconstruction of CsPbI3 Perovskite Films for Enhanced Phase Stability and Photovoltaic Performance

Abstract The small ionic radius of Cs+ results in a low tolerance factor for CsPbI3 perovskite, which intrinsically triggers its spontaneous phase transition from black phase to yellow phase, severely limiting the power conversion efficiency and long-term stability of CsPbI3 pero...

Estimation of Property Value Changes from Nearby Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage Projects in the United States

Abstract Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is vital to decarbonization, but its socioeconomic impact on nearby communities remains understudied. Using property-level housing transaction data (1990–2021) matched to nationwide CCUS project records, we apply a hedonic...

An ABA /auxin regulatory module controlled by nitrogen governs symbiotic organogenesis in the bryophyte species Ricciocarpos natans

Summary During the terrestrialization of plants c. 470 Ma, overcoming nitrogen limitation was a major evolutionary challenge. While nonvascular plants may acquire nitrogen through rhizoids and surface diffusion, symbiotic interactions likely provide an important strategy to overc...

When Grandparents Step Back: Fertility Intentions and Policy Implications in the Context of Delayed Retirement in China

As countries implement delayed retirement policies to address population aging, reduced availability of grandparental childcare emerges as an unintended consequence that may further depress fertility intentions. This study examines whether household income improvement and formal...

Guns for butter: Trade effects of arms transfers

Abstract Using a global dyadic panel from 1950 to 2021, we find a positive association between arms transfers from an exporter to an importer and general goods exports to that partner. The effects are short‐run: export responses peak around the transfer and fade within a few year...

A Review of Neural Question Generation: Approaches, Challenges, and Future Directions

The goal of question generation is to automatically produce relevant and meaningful questions from diverse inputs such as knowledge bases, natural language texts, and images. With the rapid advancement of neural architectures, neural question generation (NQG) has attracted growin...

AdaH-Chain: Deterministic capacity-aware GNNs sharding in heterogeneous blockchains

Abstract Modern blockchain sharding protocols increasingly deploy Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to optimize state partitioning. However, executing these learning heuristics across heterogeneous networks introduces two funda-mental challenges. First, hardware-dependent floating-poi...

PCIPG: A comprehensive framework for protein complex identification based on a probabilistic graphical model
