The Art of Printing [3D Engineering & Advanced Geometry]

There are sequences of actions that we repeat everyday. Among them is the printing action: print a numeric paper in pdf format and save it on your computer, or print it using a Xerox Machine or HP-printer. We found out we can do More: Let us Print in 3D Dimension, and investigate...

The Theological Poetics of Pauline κένωσις in Patristic Authors: A Dialogue with Michael C. Magree ☆

Abstract This review engages in dialogue with Magree's methodological assumptions (literary, rhetorical, philosophical and theological) and approach to the history of reception of this critically important Pauline passage (Philippians 2:7) and then provides a critical assessment...

Incidence, risk factors, and prognostic implications of hospitalizations for heart failure among patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), including essential thrombocythemia (ET), polycythemia vera (PV), and myelofibrosis (MF), are a group of chronic leukemias associated with increased risk of heart failure (HF). Despite a link between MPNs and HF, prognostic implications and ri...

Contrasting nighttime heterogeneous and daytime photochemical aging drive the optical evolution of black carbon

Abstract. Black carbon (BC) particles play a critical role in the climate system, yet their atmospheric aging processes and consequent optical impacts in real-world atmospheres remain insufficiently understood. In this study, we present integrated single-particle measurements usi...

Assessing Psychiatric Symptoms in Autistic Youth Using the K-CAT®

Abstract Purpose While highly prevalent, mental health (MH) challenges in autistic youth often go unrecognized due in part to the lack of an accurate, comprehensive MH assessment tool. The K-CAT ® was developed to address barriers to identification of MH concerns in the general p...

Variation in cataract surgical outcomes by facility type: evidence from 168 population-based surveys in 61 countries

Background/aims To compare visual outcomes after cataract surgery between outreach camps and fixed facilities, and among government, non-governmental organisation (NGO) and private providers within fixed facilities. Methods Pooled cross-sectional analysis of 41 881 cataract-opera...

Single-nucleotide resolution mapping of m6A in zebrafish early embryonic development identifies developmental stage-associated modification dynamics during the maternal-to-zygotic transition

Abstract N 6 -methyladenosine (m 6 A) is the most abundant epigenetic modification on eukaryotic mRNA and has important roles in gene expression. While m 6 A distribution and localization have been defined in zebrafish using antibody-based methods, no research has been published...

Spin Waves without Spin Waves: A Case for Soliton Propagation in Starling Flocks

Collective turns in starling flocks propagate linearly with negligible attenuation, indicating the existence of an underdamped sector in the dispersion relation. According to linear response theory, beside granting linear propagation of the phase perturbations, the real part of t...

Cell-type-specific eQTLs underlie the genetic architecture of complex traits

Genetic effects on complex traits primarily act by regulating gene expression; however, this process is not well understood1. Studies of genetic effects on gene expression (expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs)) can inform as to the gene regulatory layer between genetic vari...

Self-perceptions of aging and advance care planning: Longitudinal evidence from the Health and Retirement Study

Abstract Objectives Advance care planning (ACP) is increasingly conceptualized as a proactive, communication-centered process that supports person-centered care in later life. Although prior research has focused on demographic and clinical predictors, less is known about the psyc...

The major cluster merger in Abell 2034 as seen by XRISM: Strong turbulence and spectral anomalies?

XRISM observations to date have shown that gas kinetic pressures in the intracluster medium (ICM) tend towards the low end of predictions from cosmological simulations. Here, we present a XRISM observation of the merging cluster Abell 2034, which exhibits the broadest emission li...

K9HeartCircDB: a circRNA atlas of tachypacing-induced canine dilated cardiomyopathy

ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains a leading cause of death worldwide. Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a major cause of heart failure (HF), exhibits ventricular dilation, impaired systolic/diastolic function, arrythmias, and adverse cardiac remodeling. While genetic caus...

The Pediatric Hospitalist: A Survey of What We Do and Where We Are Going

BACKGROUND: Pediatric hospital medicine (PHM) is undergoing structural transitions, including the discontinuation of the practice pathway to board certification and changes to pediatric resident training, decreasing inpatient exposure. In this context, understanding the compositi...

Consensus-based eligibility criteria and component definitions for neonatal and infant enhanced recovery pathway: a multidisciplinary delphi study

Abstract Objective The 2020 Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS®) guidelines for neonatal intestinal surgery have not been widely implemented due to unclear eligibility criteria and poorly defined components. We sought to establish consensus-based eligibility criteria and defin...

Goals, Expectations, and Performance

People and organizations often set goals to self-motivate and achieve better outcomes in challenging tasks. But goals, and their effectiveness, might depend on what people expect to happen. Do goals reflect expectations or do goals set expectations? How do goals and expectations...

Oral Health Care Access and Utilization Among Formerly Incarcerated Individuals: A Social Determinants of Health Scoping Review

Many individuals enter correctional facilities with untreated oral health needs, and their conditions often worsen after release due to a lack of ongoing preventive and comprehensive dental services at some facilities. Given the heightened vulnerability of this population and the...

Cryogenic pure CsI as a probe for neutrino electromagnetic interactions

Abstract Searches for neutrino electromagnetic interactions at reactor sites require an unusual combination of ultra-low thresholds and a stable low-background environment. It is shown here that cryogenic undoped cesium iodide (CsI) naturally satisfies these conditions in a way p...

The Pediatric Hospitalist: A Survey of How We Are Doing

Physician well-being has important implications for clinicians, patients, and health care organizations. Burnout not only takes a human toll but is also associated with reduction in work hours, attrition, and medical errors.1 Conversely, career satisfaction is linked to improved...

The Copper Constraint: Price Formation Under Truncated Supply Elasticity in the AI Infrastructure Buildout

Copper prices rose 56 percent above their 2024 average within two years while the refined market recorded a surplus in 2025 and never departed meaningfully from balance. This paper reconciles that pattern with a market-clearing model in which the binding constraint is not the cur...

Navigating physician-scientist careers: insights from American Board of Internal Medicine Research Pathway graduates

The American Board of Internal Medicine Research Pathway (ABIM RP) is designed to train physician-scientists by shortening postgraduate clinical training and increasing research time. We surveyed ABIM RP graduates to understand career trajectories, research engagement, and barrie...
