Sex-Based Differences in Anthropometric Profiles and Physiological Responses to High-Intensity Strength–Endurance Exercise in Paramedic Students: A Cross-Sectional Study

Objectives: This study evaluated sex differences in physical activity levels, anthropometric parameters, strength–endurance performance, and acute physiological responses to high-intensity strength–endurance exercise in emergency medical services students. Methods: Participants i...

The Technological Modernization of the Hungarian Penal System Between 2015 and 2025: From Electronic Remote Monitoring to the Smart Prison

This study examines the technological modernization of the Hungarian penal system between 2015 and 2025 through qualitative document analysis. By analyzing the effects of electronic remote monitoring, remote court hearings, telemedicine, administrative processes, and artificial i...

Differential SORCS2 Expression Associated with Aggressive Behavior in Laying Hens

Aggressive behavior is a major welfare and production challenge in cage-free laying hen systems, but the genetic mechanisms behind trait variation are poorly understood. This study investigated the role of a previously identified aggression-associated SORCS2 polymorphism and eval...

Integrative Faunistic, Ecological, and Molecular Study of Harpirhynchus dusbabeki and Blankaartia acucutellaris Associated with European Passerines

Parasitic skin mites associated with wild birds are understudied members of host–parasite systems in Europe despite their ecological importance, potential role as disease vectors, and effects on host fitness. Using a multidisciplinary approach combining faunistic, ecological, and...

Toward AI-Driven Detection of Asymptomatic Chronic Conditions from Stool Metagenomics and Dietary Data: A Multimodal Deep Learning Framework for T1DM, T2DM, MOS/PCOS, Cancer, and Autoimmune Disease

Chronic non-communicable conditions—type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T1DM, T2DM), metabolic obesity syndrome (MOS), polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), colorectal and extra-intestinal cancers, and systemic autoimmune disease—share a prolonged asymptomatic phase during which con...

Innovative framework for cost-effective and reliable networks via P-graph and machine learning in water infrastructure management

Abstract Ensuring the reliable operation of wastewater transportation networks is critical for maintaining urban water infrastructure performance and preventing service disruptions. However, reliability assessment is typically conducted as a post-design evaluation rather than bei...

Metaheuristic-Based PI Controller Tuning Using a Multi-Error ITAE Objective Function for FOC-Controlled PMSM Drives in Electric Vehicle Applications

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSMs) are widely employed in electric vehicle (EV) propulsion systems because of their high efficiency, high power density, and superior dynamic performance. The performance of field-oriented control (FOC)-based PMSM drives strongly depends o...

Run-Level Fault Detection and SHAP-Based Diagnosis of Persistent Classification Difficulty in the Tennessee Eastman Process

Reliable fault detection in nonlinear process systems requires both accurate classification and interpretable analysis of faults with weak or near-normal signatures. This study develops an explainable, data-driven, and temporally informed multiclass framework for the Tennessee Ea...

Behavioural and cognitive determinants of financial loss and mental health deterioration following cybercrime victimisation

Abstract The rapid growth in the use of digital technologies has led to increased exposure to cybercrime, with significant financial and psychological consequences. This study examines the behavioural and cognitive factors that affect cybercrime victimisation and its outcomes. Dr...

Toward smarter solar: IoT and fuzzy logic for real-time maximum power point tracking and monitoring of photovoltaic systems

Abstract Photovoltaic (PV) systems are extremely prone to wear and tear and physical damage due to large variation in environmental conditions. Integration of real-time monitoring systems with PV would be highly advantageous in detecting early faults and performance degradation c...

Inscription of Quasi-Sinusoidal Surface Relief Optical Gratings in ZEONOR™ Cyclic Olefin Polymer by a 10.5 MeV N4+ Ion Microbeam at Low Implanted Fluences

Direct writing of microstructures in ZEONOR™ cyclic olefin polymer, using a high-energy medium-mass ion microbeam, was proposed and demonstrated. Microbeams of 10.5 MeV N4+ ions were used. The implanted fluences were between 2.5·1012 and 2.0·1013 ion/cm2. The microstructures were...

Distributed knowledge execution and entrepreneurial adaptability: extending knowledge management into autonomous digital ecosystems

Purpose This study aims to examine how distributed intelligence capabilities function as knowledge management mechanisms that support entrepreneurial innovation and strategic scalability in distributed digital ecosystems. Specifically, the study investigates how augmented intelli...

The Necessity and Feasibility of Implementing Regenerative Practices in Pasture-Based Beef Cattle Farming

This review analyzes sustainable and regenerative development in the beef production chain, focusing on environmental impacts and pasture-based cattle farming. Livestock emissions account for about 14.5% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gases, with beef cattle contributing 3–3....

An ecosystem framework for municipal asbestos removal as a material legacy transition

Abstract The phase-out of asbestos remains a critical yet underexplored challenge in the broader context of urban and regional sustainability transitions in Europe. Although asbestos has been banned in the European Union since 2005, recent European policy debates and Commission i...

Self-medication among higher education students: prevalence, risk factors, and health information-seeking behaviours

The WHO estimates that more than two-thirds of university students engage in this practice. This study aims to determine the prevalence, knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to self-medication, along with the determinants that influence these behaviors, among higher educat...
