Unlocking catalytically active sites in FeMnS/MXene@Ni(OH)2 arrays via heterojunction strategy for highly efficient overall water splitting

Developing efficient and earth-abundant bifunctional electrocatalysts for water electrolysis remains a critical challenge due to sluggish reaction kinetics and limited structural durability. Herein, a FeMnS/Ti 3 C 2 T x @Ni(OH) 2 (NFMM) heterostructure is fabricated through the s...

Recent advances in solar panel efficiency and economic analysis using passive and active cooling methods

The performance and endurance of photovoltaic panels are primarily dependent upon functional temperature, creating active thermal management vital for enhancing solar energy conversion. This review indicates a complete study of novel passive, active, and hybrid cooling technologi...

Incidental detection of pneumorrhachis in a young trauma patient following combined spinal–epidural anaesthesia: a case report

Pneumorrhachis — the presence of gas within the spinal canal — is an uncommon radiological finding that most clinicians encounter only once or twice during a career. At one end of the spectrum, it resolves without residual neurological deficit while on the other end, it may signa...

NO2 Sensing Using Sr-Doped Bi2MoO6 Based on the Synergy of Increased Catalytic Activity and the Cloaking Effect

Abstract Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) serves as a highly reactive atmospheric pollutant that poses significant health risks when inhaled above permissible exposure limits. Here, we present an atomic-level electronic-structure modification technique that generates defect-mediated sub-ba...

The Assistive Tool Paradox in radiology education: AI awareness, misconceptions, and job anxiety among Indian radiography students

The increasing integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into medical imaging is transforming the practice of radiology. However, the readiness and perceptions of future professionals, particularly in high-demand healthcare settings like India, remain insufficiently explored. T...

Synergistic ZnMn2O4/Cu3P coupling via a Type-II p-n heterojunction for enhanced charge separation and photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

The development of efficient and sustainable photocatalysts for solar-driven hydrogen production is vital for advancing clean energy technologies. In this work, a ZnMn 2 O 4 /Cu 3 P heterojunction photocatalyst is reported for the first time. The ZnMn 2 O 4 (ZMO) component was sy...

Supramolecular, electronic and computational investigation of 3-benzoyl-7-methoxychromen-2-one: an extended experimental and theoretical study

Experimental and theoretical investigations on the structural, supramolecular, and electronic characteristics of 3-benzoyl-7-methoxy-2H-chromen-2-one (BMC) were conducted. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses demonstrated a nearly planar coumarin structure accompanied by a t...

Structure–property correlation in a creatininium-based nonlinear optical crystal: experimental and DFT analysis

The nonlinear optical material Creatininium hydrochloride (CTHCl) was successfully synthesized as a single crystal by solvent evaporation at ambient temperature, as confirmed by XRD analysis. To deepen our understanding of the molecule’s intrinsic properties, quantum-chemical cal...

Hydrogel‐Based Mechano‐Immunomodulation in Bone Fracture Healing: Mechanical Regulation of Macrophage Phenotypes, Osteoimmune Interactions, and Regeneration

Bone fracture healing is a meticulously regulated process encompassing the inflammatory, reparative, and remodelling phases. Macrophages serve as pivotal coordinators within this cascade, with their polarisation from pro-inflammatory M1 to proregenerative M2 phenotypes, which pla...

Leakage-aware hybrid tabular deep learning with target-provenance auditing for calorie-expenditure prediction and constrained exercise food recommendation

Abstract Personalised exercise planning depends on calorie expenditure estimates derived from valid predictors. Published tabular recommenders rarely scrutinise the provenance of their outcome variable. We propose a leakage-aware, audit-first framework that combines hybrid tabula...

Perioperative and early postoperative outcomes following open fistulectomy, fixcision, and fibrin glue for simple low anal fistula: a prospective observational comparative study

Abstract Simple low anal fistula is commonly managed by open fistulectomy or sphincter-preserving procedures. Although minimally invasive techniques such as Fixcision and fibrin glue aim to reduce postoperative morbidity while preserving continence, comparative prospective data r...

Hybrid denoising framework for pneumonia detection: integrating discrete wavelet transform and Pix2Pix GAN

Pneumonia is a respiratory illness that manifests in fluid or pus accumulation by inflaming the lungs’ air sacs. Coughing, fever, and difficulty breathing are some of the signs of this illness, which interrupts the regular flow of oxygen. Serious problems may only be avoided with...

Comprehensive investigation of intermittent large-amplitude excursions in the memristive Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model

Abstract This study systematically investigates intermittent large-amplitude oscillations across all three state variables of the memristive Hindmarsh–Rose neuron model. The large-amplitude excursions, arising from interior crisis-induced intermittency, are first identified throu...

Low-carbon geopolymer concrete for sustainable pavement applications: Materials, performance, and sustainability

The increasing demand for low-carbon and resource-efficient infrastructure has accelerated interest in Geopolymer Concrete (GPC) as a sustainable alternative to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) concrete. Produced through the alkali activation of aluminosilicate precursors such as F...

Adaptive dual stream neural encoder with privacy aware non-identifying data augmentation pipeline for low latency cross lingual speech recognition

Abstract Cross-lingual speech recognition for real-time applications is constrained by the joint requirements of low latency, high recognition accuracy, and strict privacy over conversational audio. This research work addresses these constraints by designing an adaptive dual-stre...

Impact of alcohol consumption on helicobacter pylori infection in patients with functional dyspepsia: a prospective observational study

Helicobacter pylori infection is a major cause of dyspeptic symptoms, but its association with alcohol consumption remains controversial. Few prospective studies have evaluated this relationship in patients with functional dyspepsia undergoing upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Th...

A Modular Tecton Matrix for Mechanosynthesis of Large‐Pore Hydrogen‐Bonded Organic Frameworks With Programmable Pore Environments

ABSTRACT Hydrogen‐bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) offer versatile porous architectures, yet predictable pore expansion via tecton extension remains challenging because framework assembly is highly sensitive to solvent‐mediated crystallization. Here, we establish a mechanosynthes...

Association of socioeconomic status on parental knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding dental fluorosis in Salem, Tamil Nadu: a cross-sectional study

Dental fluorosis is a significant public health burden in endemic regions like Salem, Tamil Nadu. While environmental fluoride levels are the primary cause, the severity of the condition is often mediated by parental awareness and preventive practices. Socioeconomic status (SES)...
