Miniaturized Full-Stokes Spectrometers Based on Low-Correlation Metasurface Array

Abstract Full-Stokes spectrometers hold an immense application value due to their capability to simultaneously resolve polarization state and spectral information. Specifically, miniaturized full-Stokes spectrometers are promising for applications in real-world scenarios owing to...

Digital symptom management interventions for patients with head and neck cancer during peri-chemoradiotherapy: a scoping review using the UK Medical Research Council Framework

Patients with head and neck cancer experience a substantial symptom burden that severely affects their quality of life during peri-chemoradiotherapy. Digital health interventions offer a promising approach for symptom management. However, such interventions are often hindered by...

A narrowband bandpass filter with multiple transmission zeros based on parallel coupled lines structure

Purpose This paper aims to present the theoretical design of a narrowband bandpass filter (BPF) using a multiple parallel-coupled line structure. The proposed filter delivers robust narrowband performance, generates multiple transmission zeros (TZs) and achieves wide-stopband rej...

Association between Helicobacter pylori infection and outcomes of cancer patients receiving immunotherapy: a systematic review and meta-analysis

The association between Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and prognostic outcomes in cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) remains controversial. We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library up to September 2025 for studies r...

Resilient Fully Distributed Event‐Triggered Consensus Against DSS Attacks in Nonlinear MAS via Fractional‐Order Super‐Twisting Sliding Mode Control

ABSTRACT This paper proposes a fully distributed event‐triggered control strategy for nonlinear multi‐agent systems (MASs) that is resilient to distributed sequential scaling (DSS) attacks. A key innovation is the integration of fractional‐order super‐twisting sliding mode contro...

Knowledge and attitudes of nurses and nursing students about Alzheimer’s disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis

With the global aging population, the burden of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is increasing, underscoring the critical need for competent AD care. While previous studies have explored nursing personnel’s knowledge of and attitudes toward AD, a comprehensive synthesis across diverse cu...

Mixed‐Valence Engineering in Ge 2+ Chalcogenides: Structural Modulation for Balanced Infrared Nonlinear Optics

ABSTRACT Resolving the intrinsic trade‐off between strong second‐harmonic generation (SHG) and a wide band gap remains a central challenge in infrared nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. Here, we report a mixed‐valence engineering strategy to realize a previously unexplored Ge 2+...

Stepped‐Dimensional 2D/3D Tin‐Based Perovskites for High‐Efficiency Light‐Emitting Diodes

ABSTRACT Tin (Sn)‐based perovskite near‐infrared (NIR) light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) show great potential for applications in night vision, biomedical sensing, and optical communications. However, their performance remains limited by uncontrolled crystallization and the facile oxi...

Trajectories of memory function before and after cardiovascular disease among hypertensive patients

The trajectories of cognitive function before and after cardiovascular disease (CVD) have been widely explored in the general population, but less is known in hypertensive patients who are regarded as the most vulnerable patients for both CVD and dementia. The cohort study was co...

Development and validation of a nomogram for identifying the risk of oral frailty in middle-aged and elderly patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis: a cross-sectional study

Oral frailty is a common subtype of frailty that is closely related to sarcopenia, malnutrition, disability, etc. However, it is often overlooked in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Currently, research on oral frailty in MHD patients is still limited. This study aims to d...

Effectiveness of OBE-oriented and online-offline blended teaching versus traditional lecture-based teaching in nuclear medicine nursing education: a multicenter prospective comparative study

Nuclear medicine nursing demands high professional competence, particularly in radiation protection and radiopharmaceutical management. Traditional lecture-based teaching (LBT) fails to meet modern training needs. Outcome-Based Education (OBE) and online-offline blended teaching...

Establishing Management Framework for Biosafety Risk Assessments of Synthetic Biology

Synthetic biology, an evolving interdisciplinary field encompassing revolutionary technologies, requires a comprehensive consideration of bioethics, and biosafety risks to drive scientific and technological advancements. To address these concerns, it is crucial to pay attention t...

HD-AIP: A Heterogeneous Dual-Stream Alignment-Free Framework for Anti-Inflammatory Peptide Prediction Based on Language Models and CT-Net.

MOTIVATION: Anti-inflammatory peptides (AIPs) show therapeutic potential for treating chronic and autoimmune diseases. Computational screening of these peptides remains challenging because their typically short sequences limit traditional feature extraction effectiveness, while h...

Precision localization of the anus using a smart defecation assistance system based on the YOLOv11n model

BackgroundExisting defecation-assistance devices generally lack automated anal localization and image-based screening for conditions that may preclude probe operation.ObjectiveTo develop and evaluate an image-based method for anal localization and abnormal-region detection in an...

Bio-inspired functional recursion enables multi-mode locomotion in a 140-mg morphing microrobot

Insects traverse diverse environments by reusing body structures and appendages through adaptable mechanics, an ability that remains a grand challenge for insect-scale robotics under strict mass constraints. Here we present an insect‑scale robot that integrates aerial takeoff and...

Limited L1 transfer and efficiency-driven strategies in L2 syntax–semantics processing: An ERP study

Cross-linguistic transfer accounts predict that second language (L2) learners benefit from structural overlap between their native language (L1) and L2, while the accessibility–complexity–efficiency model proposes that L2 learners rely on accessible cues to maintain efficiency wh...

Artificial intelligence across the emergency–disaster continuum: a scoping review and implications for nursing practice

Abstract Background Emergency care and disaster response are both characterised by surges in demand, time pressure and constrained resources. In this review, an emergency-disaster continuum was developed as an analytical lens for examining AI applications across routine emergency...

NOVA ResearchOS: Evidence-Risk-Gated Collaboration and Validation-Gated Self-Evolution for Auditable Research Agents

Abstract: Multi-agent research assistants can route tasks through specialized roles, but adding more agents does not by itself guarantee reliable scientific conclusions. We present NOVA ResearchOS, an implemented, event-sourced prototype that couples claim–evidence provenance wit...

Gestation-specific reference intervals for renal and liver function tests and complete blood count in a Chinese cohort: a retrospective cross-sectional study

Reference intervals for renal and liver function tests and complete blood count are influenced by gestational age, ethnicity, and analytical methods. Establishing pregnancy-specific reference intervals is essential for accurate diagnosis and management of obstetric conditions. Th...

Dynamic fate of beige adipocytes in fat grafting and inflammatory regulation

Autologous fat grafting is widely used in reconstructive and cosmetic surgery, but its success is limited by unpredictable graft survival. Recent studies have found that white adipocytes within fat grafts can transform into beige adipocytes—a process called browning—yet whether t...
