Counterfactual Identification of Institutional Rupture: Evidence From Constitutional Transformation in Venezuela

How can institutional rupture be identified in settings where the treated unit is singular, interventions are composite, and institutional deterioration unfolds through mutually reinforcing constitutional, political, and legal transformations? We develop a counterfactual framewor...

Are sleep and breakfast behaviours predictors of active or independent commuting to school in Spanish youth?

Abstract Background Despite increasing interest in the association between active commuting to school (ACS) and health-related behaviors, the existing literature presents inconsistent findings regarding the relationships between ACS and preceding behaviors such as sleep duration...

Hotter days, smaller ranges: Air temperature constrains livestock movement and space use in Mediterranean rangelands

Livestock has become the dominant large herbivore guild in most rangelands worldwide. Current climate adaptation frameworks emphasize extreme climatic events, although the extent to which these episodic drivers capture the environmental conditions shaping animal behaviour remains...

Sociotechnical synergy: how employee involvement unlocks the value of data analytics

Purpose Despite high expectations about the benefits of data analytics (DA), our understanding of the mechanisms that drive value creation from the implementation of DA in firms remains incomplete. While some studies have suggested that innovation prowess, human resources and ope...

Inciting Events of Lower-Limb Muscle Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Video-Based Studies

Understanding the situational contexts of lower-limb muscle injuries in football is critical for informing the design of effective prevention strategies. While their frequency and burden are well documented, the frequently observed inciting events and situational patterns underly...

Halloysite Nanotubesas Dynamic Interfaces for FunctionalEnzyme Biomaterials

Abstract The development of robust and recyclable enzyme-based materials is essential for advancing sustainable biocatalysis and biotechnologies. Herein, we report the design of covalent enzyme-halloysite biohybrid materials obtained by the controlled functionalization of halloys...

Effects of plyometric training on explosive power and swimming performance in adolescent swimmers: a systematic review and meta-analysis with dose-response analysis

Abstract Adolescent swimmers depend heavily on lower-limb power during critical phases such as the block start, wall turn, and sprints, with the circa-peak height velocity (PHV) period representing a sensitive window for neuromuscular development. Plyometric training (PT), utiliz...

Widespread thermophilization but weak link to climate warming in Europe’s summit plant communities

Abstract Recent changes in alpine vegetation are often attributed to climate warming, particularly community composition shifts towards more warmth-associated species, or thermophilization. Here we assess the link between thermophilization and warming across 53 European mountain...

Malnutrition Severity, Morphofunctional Assessment, and Survival in Patients with Lung Cancer: A Multicentre Prospective Cohort Study

PURPOSE: Malnutrition is common in lung cancer and may contribute to impaired functional status and poor survival. This study evaluated the association between GLIM-defined malnutrition, morphofunctional nutritional parameters, and one-year mortality in patients with lung cancer....

Spiro-helicenoidCarbofluoresceins: CPL-Active Emittersfor Bioimaging

Abstract Chiral fluorescent probes based on small organic molecules present a promising platform for advanced bioimaging applications. In this work, we have developed a helically chiral spiro-shaped carbofluorescein with red emission (λem ≤ 613 nm). Configurationally stable enant...

Emotional and cognitive mechanisms in hazard prediction and orienting skills: evidence from physiological and eye-tracking measures

Hazard prediction and attentional orienting play a critical role in road safety interventions aimed at reducing accident risk. Two complementary studies employed the Hazard Prediction–Orienting (HP-O) task to examine the independent contributions of driving experience and attenti...

Clustering and customer value to enhance the competitive advantages of the palm and date sector in the Jericho governorate

Purpose This study aims to develop a comprehensive strategy for creating and enhancing customer value in the palm and date sector in Jericho Governorate by leveraging the potential of palm and date clusters. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative methodology was adopted using...

From learning to action: transformative pedagogies driving SDG-oriented entrepreneurship in higher education

Purpose This study aims to analyze how project-based learning (PBL) in higher education entrepreneurship courses contributes to the development of sustainable entrepreneurial competencies and to students’ social and environmental commitment, highlighting its relevance to the achi...

Terpene-DerivedCarvyl Acetate Dicarbonate: A NovelMonomer for Biobased Nonisocyanate Poly(hydroxyurethane) Thermoplasticsand Thermosets

Abstract New thermoplastic nonisocyanate poly(hydroxyurethanes) (NIPUs) have been designed by polyaddition reactions of carvyl acetate dicarbonate (CADC) with a range of commercial diamines, yielding thermoplastic nonisocyanate poly(hydroxyurethanes) with moderate molecular weigh...

Association between risk of eating disorders and an unhealthy lifestyle score in university students: uniHcos project

Introduction The first year of university is a critical period for the consolidation of lifestyle habits and has been associated with an increased risk of developing eating disorders (EDs). This study aimed to assess the prevalence of ED risk among first-year Spanish university s...

Post-match biochemical signatures and their association with video tracking metrics in elite soccer (football) players using multiplatform targeted metabolomics

Abstract Urinary metabolomics offers promise for monitoring exercise‑induced physiological stress in football, yet evidence linking post‑match urinary markers to match workload in elite players remains limited. This study investigated pre‑ to post‑match changes in the urinary met...

Terminology for describing the 24-h cycle of physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep: a scoping review

Abstract Background Physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep are three behaviours which occupy the 24-h cycle and interact to influence a multitude of health outcomes. Different terms are currently used to describe these behaviours collectively (e.g., movement behaviours...

Review of Particle Physics *

The Review summarizes much of particle physics and cosmology. Using data from previous editions, plus 3,200 new measurements from 903 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons and the recently discovered Higgs boson, leptons, quarks, mesons, and b...

Newton’s Problem of Minimal Resistance in Lorentz–Minkowski Space

Abstract We extend Newton’s problem of minimal resistance to the Lorentz–Minkowski space. We derive the functional energy and determine the Euler–Lagrange equation. In contrast to the Euclidean case, this equation is quasilinear elliptic, and thus, a maximum principle holds in th...

Long range transport of Canadian wildfire smoke to Europe in 2023: aerosol properties and spectral features of smoke particles

Abstract. The Canadian wildfires of 2023 had an unprecedented biomass burning season spanning from mid-April to late October. Towards the end of this long biomass burning season, there was a rare observation of smoke properties that occurred in about a week interval, that were di...
