Network science in sports

Network science has become a central methodological framework for the study of complex systems, with applications across social, biological, and technological domains. Its strength lies in formalizing such systems as collections of interacting units, whose collective behavior dep...

Health Outcomes and Medical Response in Military Maneuvers: A Study of Morbidity, Treatment, and Evacuation

INTRODUCTION: Military maneuvers represent a health care challenge: They are essential for preventing occupational accidents and providing rapid and appropriate care for injuries and conditions resulting from physical exertion and extreme environments. OBJECTIVE: To describe and...

Robotherapy and Occupational Therapy: A Study on Their Application in the Field of Mental Health

Date presented: April 23, 2026 Primary Author and Speaker: Cristina Perdomo Delgado, cristinepd@hotmail.com

Reliability of Myotonometric Measurements and Their Associations with Motor Performance in Parkinson’s Disease

Myotonometry provides a non-invasive assessment of resting muscle mechanical properties, but its reliability and functional relevance in Parkinson’s disease (PD) remain insufficiently established. This study examined the within-session intra-rater reliability of MyotonPRO measure...

DermArtifactDB: a multi-label dataset for artifact annotation in public dermoscopic image repositories

Dermoscopic images acquired in routine clinical practice frequently contain visual artifacts—such as hair, ruler markings, gel-related structures, or ink traces—that may obscure diagnostically relevant patterns and affect the performance of computer-aided diagnosis systems. Despi...

Algorithmic Visibility and Automated Continuation: Infrastructural Mediation in Streaming Platforms

AI-mediated communication is commonly associated with conversational agents, generative systems, and emotionally responsive interfaces. This article examines Top-10 rankings and autoplay as forms of infrastructural mediation embedded in streaming-platform interfaces and discusses...

The robotic PIANO: a critical narrative review of surgeon-controlled operative polyphony, human factors, and robotic training

Abstract Robotic surgery can concentrate control of several technical functions at the console, but such concentration does not itself confer clinical independence, reduce dependence on the perioperative team, or improve patient outcomes. We define surgeon-controlled operative po...

Sensitivity of urban wind CFD predictions to geometric representation: Wind-tunnel validation around complex buildings

Accurate prediction of urban wind flow depends strongly on the geometric detail used in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models, yet simplified block representations remain common in urban studies. This work combines wind-tunnel measurements and CFD simulations to quantify how...

Artificial intelligence as enabler and object of strategic foresight: a theoretical framework for digital organisational transformation

Purpose Research on artificial intelligence (AI) in organisations has concentrated on operational efficiency and automation. This study aims to reposition AI as both a constitutive element and a strategic object of foresight, a dual role the literature has noticed but not theoris...

Adhesive-based protective strategies for enamel cracks during in-office bleaching and their effect on hydrogen peroxide penetration

Abstract Objectives To evaluate hydrogen peroxide (HP) penetration in teeth with enamel cracks and to investigate if adhesive-based strategies can reduce its permeability without compromising bleaching efficacy (BE). Materials and methods Fifty human premolars ( n = 10 per group)...

Global prospects of low-carbon photocatalytic hydrogen based on regionalised optimisation

Photocatalytic hydrogen has gained interest as a solar-driven pathway for renewable hydrogen production, particularly in regions with abundant sunlight and remote locations with limited industrial infrastructure. However, its large-scale potential and environmental performance re...

Generative synthesis of high-fidelity pathological brain MRI via label-conditioned latent diffusion

The synthesis of high-fidelity brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is essential for addressing data scarcity and privacy constraints in medical research. In this study, we present a Latent Diffusion Model (LDM) for conditional MRI generation, operating in a compressed latent s...

UPF4ROS2 for integrating planner independent task planning into ROS 2

Abstract The lack of standardized interfaces remains one of the main barriers to the adoption of automated planning in robotic systems. To address this challenge, the AIPlan4EU project, part of the European AI4EU initiative, developed the Unified Planning Framework (UPF), a plann...

Associative triple trisystems and standard embeddings

In this paper, we introduce the concept of associative triple trisystems (ATTs), extending the classical theory of triple systems to the dialgebra framework. To provide concrete models for these structures, we utilize averaging operators to construct explicit examples of ATTs fro...

Thermodynamic Optimization of a Triple Combined Cycle Power Plant: Integrating a Bottoming Organic Rankine Cycle into a 500 MWe Natural-Gas Combined Cycle

Combined cycle power plants (CCPPs) are the most efficient fossil-fuelled technology available today, yet a significant fraction of the fuel energy still leaves the plant with the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) exhaust gases at temperatures too low to be exploited by a conv...

Crushing of carbon-fiber reinforced thermoplastic energy absorbers under axial impact: Numerical modeling and experimental tests

This study presents a numerical and experimental investigation aimed at assessing the impact behavior, energy absorption characteristics, and failure modes of thermoplastic composite energy absorbers subjected to axial impact loads. The energy absorbers consist of thin-walled cyl...

Patient-Transition Networks, Multiservice Trajectories, and Specialty Activity in a University Dental Clinic: A Retrospective Ecological Study

Background/Objectives: Routine administrative dental data can quantify specialty activity and reconstruct sequential patient movement when operational definitions and analytical provenance are explicit. To reconcile institutional activity through 30 June 2026, describe the deriva...

Management of Acute Periodontal Conditions—The EFP S2k Level Clinical Practice Guideline

BACKGROUND: The European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) has developed Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) for the treatment of periodontitis and for the management of peri-implant diseases. In accordance with the 2018 Classification, acute periodontal conditions are character...

Bioimpedance: From Body Composition Assessment to Emerging Technologies in Clinical Nutrition

This review examines the physical foundations, predictive models, emerging technologies and recent research trends in bioimpedance for clinical nutrition. A bibliometric analysis of cumulative scientific production from 1980 to 2025 shows that weighted logistic models provide a g...

A queer reading of Alexis Bisticas’s To Harama ( The Dawn ) (1994): from diva citizenship to #MeToo

Alexis Bisticas is probably more famous for his short films than his last work, The Dawn (To Harama), his only feature film, as he died of AIDS in 1995. The story follows the emancipation narrative of Vasso, a housewife who discovers her singing talent and liberates herself from...
