Exercise-Induced Acid–Base, Electrolyte, and Metabolic Responses in Colombian Creole Horses Across Different Gait Modalities

Exercise physiology in Colombian Creole Horses remains poorly characterized despite the breed’s extensive use in athletic activities. The objective of this study was to evaluate exercise-induced changes in blood biochemical and gas parameters and to determine whether these respon...

Deep molecular profiling of lung neuroendocrine tumours and supra-carcinoids

BACKGROUND: Lung neuroendocrine tumours (NETs, also known as carcinoids) are rapidly rising in incidence worldwide but have unknown aetiology and limited therapeutic options beyond surgery. The current WHO classification, based on mitotic count and presence or absence of necrosis...

Recursive ArUco Markers: A Scalable Fiducial Marker Design for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Landing Pads

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) usually rely on visual fiducial markers for autonomous navigation and precision landing. However, standard markers suffer from limited operational ranges, becoming undetectable when the camera is either too far or too close. While recursive and fra...

Sobre as perspectivas teórico-metodológicas da Agroecologia

This paper is a detailed characterization of the process of participatory research that develops the Agroecology. In this process, a dynamic generation of reflexivity is created, through methods and techniques employed in three different phases. In the first one (Ecological and P...

Effect of External Electric Fields on Defective AlN/GrapheneHeterobilayer: A First-Principles Study

Abstract Graphene-based van der Waals heterobilayers play a fundamental role in the fabrication of optoelectronic, micro- and nanoelectronic, and spintronic devices. In this paper, four new stackings for the (4 × 4)-AlN/(5 × 5)-graphene denominated as AA, AA′, A′B, and A′B′ are i...

Work autonomy and work effort under perceived performance-contingent reassignment/dismissal policies: parallel affective pathways in the UAE

This study examines whether work autonomy is associated with work effort in the context of perceived performance-contingent reassignment/dismissal policies, that is, employees’ perceptions that inadequate performance evaluations may lead to reassignment to other positions or dism...

Evolution of functional and mental status and quality of life in people aged 75 years and over after the COVID-19 pandemic in Spain: a prospective cohort study

The COVID-19 pandemic has had significant health and psychosocial consequences in the older adults. However, there is little community-based evidence that clearly distinguishes the effect attributable to SARS-CoV-2 infection to be differentiated from the contextual impact of the...

Implications of dominance deviations for reproductive and morphological traits in the genetic management of the Pura Raza Española horse

Abstract Background Dominance is a non-additive genetic effect involving allele interaction at the same locus. In animal breeding, it has often been ignored due to its complexity and the low accuracy of pedigree-based estimates. This study analysed dominance variance components f...

Building Climate-Resilient Mediterranean Olive Systems: Integrating Soil, Water, Carbon, Biodiversity, and Innovation for a Sustainable Future

Abstract Mediterranean olive systems face compound climatic, ecological, and socio-economic pressures. Drawing on the consensus of the International Conference on Sustainability in Olive Cultivation (ICSOC) 2025, we propose an integrated framework structured along three axes: fiv...
