Language and lineage of the Etruscans in Fascist Italy and National socialist Germany

This article studies the case of the Etruscan language, which was spoken in western central Italy, from the eighth century to the first century BCE, but whose lengthy texts we do not yet well understand. It shows that, as the origins of the Etruscan language and people are unknow...

Revisiting Identification Thresholds of Specific Learning Disorders ( SLD ) in Gifted Children ( GC ). A Comparison of Three Groups: Twice‐Exceptional ( TE ) Children, GC Without SLD and Non‐ GC With SLD

ABSTRACT This study investigates assessment of Specific Learning Disorders (SLD) in Twice‐Exceptional (TE) children, gifted children (GC) who also present SLD, in oral and written language domains. Applying the standard threshold for identification (< 7th percentile) to GC often...

“Root phenomics for harnessing hidden-half dynamic plasticity under water stress”

Abstract Adapting crops to climate-driven water extremes is a cornerstone of agricultural sustainability. Historically overlooked due to phenotyping constraints, root phenes have now emerged as a primary frontier for enhancing crop resilience. We review root architectural and ana...

Minimally Invasive Breast Augmentation: A Comparative Analysis of Satisfaction, Recovery, and Sensory Outcomes

Background: With the emergence of a minimally invasive breast augmentation, designed to preserve tissue integrity, there is a growing interest in how this approach compares to conventional methods. This study aims to evaluate patient-reported outcomes, including satisfaction, rec...

Effectiveness of different rehabilitation modalities for fall prevention in people with lower-limb amputation: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Objective To evaluate various rehabilitation interventions to reduce fall incidence and improve fall-related outcomes in people with lower-limb amputation. Data sources PubMed, PEDro, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Lissa, ClinicalTrials.gov and the World Health Organization Inter...

When second-hand markets confront their ghosts: Insights from psychological reactance theory in Douala-Cameroon

The consumption of second-hand products in Douala (Cameroon) unfolds within a fragile equilibrium shaped by informal market dynamics, social norms, and culturally embedded representations. Drawing on participant observations and semi-structured interviews, this study shows that s...

Motivations for purchasing second hand products in sub Saharan Africa and circular economy implications

Second-hand consumption has become increasingly visible in Sub-Saharan African cities, yet the motivations driving this practice remain insufficiently understood. In Cameroon, the rapid expansion of informal markets and persistent socio-economic constraints create a distinctive c...

Mental health and learning conditions among French physiotherapy students: a nationwide cross-sectional study of individual, educational and contextual factors

Learning conditions in health professions education may be associated with students’ mental health and academic experience. Physiotherapy training combines academic, clinical and relational demands, yet nationwide evidence on potentially modifiable educational factors remains lim...

Appendicular Versus Non-Appendicular Community-Acquired Intra-Abdominal Infections: A Post-Hoc Analysis of the PERICOM Multicenter Study

Background: Community-acquired intra-abdominal infections (CA-IAIs) exhibit significant clinical heterogeneity. However, most studies focusing on CA-IAIs do not stratify comparisons by infection site. Methods: This post hoc analysis of the prospective multicenter PERICOM cohort (...

Staged Bilateral Magnetic Resonance‐Guided Focused Ultrasound ( MRgFUS) Thalamotomy in Essential Tremor: Screening for Cognitive Impairment Is Not Assessing It

Vicinal Halothiolcarbonates as Pseudo-Ambident Electrophiles: Carbamate Synthesis, Unified Thiol Reactivity, and Architecture-Dependent Antibacterial Activity of Ciprofloxacin Glycoconjugates

Abstract Vicinal bis-electrophilic halothiolcarbonates (vic-HTCs) are introduced as a platform for the chemoselective synthesis of carbohydrate carbamates under mild conditions. Their aminolysis accommodates a broad range of nucleophiles, including complex bioactive amines, provi...

Law of the Usurping Handmaid : A Functional-Inversion Hypothesis for the Early Detection of Systemic Collapse

ABSTRACT We propose a general hypothesis of systemic instability: in any organized system, the means (S) thatgrows at the expense of its purpose (M) eventually inverts the hierarchical relationship, causing M tocollapse.We present a falsifiable version including:— Ex-ante definit...

Understanding rhythmic behavior in infancy: Perspectives for addressing developmental, methodological, and analytical challenges

Neural sensitivity to rhythm emerges prenatally, yet observable movement synchronization to an external beat occurs later and more gradually over development. Integrating findings from developmental psychology, neuroscience, music cognition, and social interaction research, we pr...

Does ESG performance enhance financial performance? Evidence from Morocco and the moderating role of corporate governance

Purpose This study addresses the ongoing debate on the environmental, social and governance (ESG)–financial performance nexus by examining whether ESG performance enhances firm profitability and whether corporate governance mechanisms condition this relationship in an emerging ma...

Validation of French Versions of the Internal and External Sexual Consent Scales: Associations with Sociodemographic and Intimate Relationship Variables

Introduction: Sexual consent is a multidimensional construct involving both internal willingness and external communication, yet validated French-language instruments assessing these dimensions remain scarce. Objective: This study aimed to validate French versions of the Internal...

Interface-engineered 1T/2H-MoS2 on 3D nickel foam enables accelerated hydrogen evolution kinetics

We report a single-step pulsed electrodeposition strategy that grows mixed-phase 1T/2H-MoS 2 conformally on a porous nickel foam (NF) scaffold, yielding a self-supported MoS 2 /NF electrode. In 1.0 M KOH, MoS 2 /NF requires only an overpotential of −52 mV to deliver −10 mA cm −2...

Dependence of Extreme Values, VaR, and Contagion During the COVID-19 Period: Analysis Using the Copula-GARCH Approach

The present study investigates extreme co-movements and financial contagion across a broad set of global financial markets, including ten developed and emerging stock market indices, commodities (gold and oil), and cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin), over the period from January 2007 to...

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...

Effects of Dapagliflozin on the Bone of Patients with CKD on Dialysis

The effects of gliflozins on bones of CKD patients on dialysis are unknown. Recently, SGLT2 expression in bone tissue of patients with CKD has been reported. We hypothesized that dapagliflozin may act in bone cells and modulate the Klotho-FGF23 axis. This study analyzed the effec...

Chance of live birth in women with recurrent pregnancy loss referred to a French assisted reproductive technology center

Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a multifactorial condition, with over 50% of cases remaining unexplained. The absence of therapeutic consensus raises questions regarding referral for assisted reproductive technology (ART). To evaluate live birth rates and predictors of success...
