The Evolutionary Frameworks Project - The 15 Frameworks

This document provides the first complete, canonical assignment of all fifteen theoretical frameworks within the Evolutionary Frameworks Project. It maps each framework into one of the five thematic clusters defined in the Master Outline (Version 1.0), establishing the structural...

Current Evidence on Best Practice Dental Survivorship Care for People With Head and Neck Cancer: An Overview of Systematic Reviews and Emerging Evidence

INTRODUCTION: Head and neck cancer (HNC) survival is improving, increasing the need to address long-term survivorship issues. Dental survivorship-care before, during, and after treatment-remains inconsistent across services. We conducted a review of systematic reviews and emergin...

Outcomes following dialysis and transplantation in amyloidosis: ANZDATA analysis

Abstract Background The kidneys are frequently affected by systemic amyloidosis. Despite this, contemporary survival outcomes for patients reaching kidney failure due to amyloidosis remain poorly defined relative to other causes of kidney failure. This study aims to characterise...

Prognostic Stratification of Brain Metastases from Nonanaplastic Follicular Cell–Derived Thyroid Carcinoma: Results of an International Multicenter Retrospective Study

Background: Brain metastases (BMs) from nonanaplastic follicular cell–derived thyroid carcinoma (hereinafter referred to as non-ATC) are rare and not well characterized, with limited evidence guiding treatment and prognostic stratification. We aimed to describe clinical features,...

Short- and long-term exposures to elevated temperatures influence weight status among young children: A secondary analysis of multi-longitudinal datasets from Australia and New Zealand

Climate change and childhood obesity are major global health threats that share common upstream determinants. However, evidence on the associations between ambient temperature and childhood obesity remains limited. This study aimed to investigate the associations between temperat...

Tax Enforcement and Corporate Green Practices: Government–Firm Reciprocity in China's Low‐carbon City Pilot Program

Despite rising expectations for firms to fulfil environmental responsibilities, there is increasing emphasis on collaborative efforts between firms and governments to tackle sustainability challenges. This study demonstrates that governments can adjust tax enforcement to motivate...

Cannabis use disorder in patients prescribed medical cannabis—Should we consider prescription cannabis use disorder as a new diagnostic condition?

Abstract Background and Aims The introduction of prescribed medical cannabis in many parts of the world raises issues regarding how we conceptualise Cannabis Use Disorders (CUD). The Diagnostic Statistical Manual Version 5 (DSM5) provides a framework for ‘Prescription Cannabis Us...

Facing the Tide: How Can Woollahra’s Urban Planning Outsmart Flood Risks?

Established, affluent coastal suburbs combine severe flood exposure with extensive private land ownership, yet little is known about how multi-level planning systems perform when private property rights must be balanced against public flood resilience. We developed a quantitative...

Expedited research and approval of medicines for drug-resistant bacterial infections in children.

Multidrug-resistant pathogens cause severe infections with substantial morbidity and mortality in neonates, infants and children, as they do in adults. However, the approval of therapies for multidrug-resistant infections in paediatric patients often lags years behind approval fo...

Early life sugar rationing and ageing related diseases, biological ageing and mortality

Early-life nutrition may influence lifelong ageing, yet human evidence is scarce. Using Britain’s postwar sugar rationing as a natural experiment, we examine its long-term effects in 64,809 United Kingdom Biobank participants. Exposure to sugar rationing during the first 1,000 da...

Deep learning for automated rock core image analysis: Weathering classification, fracture detection, and 3D geological modelling

Rock core images are a primary source of subsurface information, but conventional manual logging is slow, labour-intensive and prone to subjective error. This study presents CoreVision, an end-to-end data-driven workflow for automated interpretation and digitisation of drilling-c...
