Sufficient, Not Maximal

Adults who are not training for competitive sport rarely need maximal development of any single physical capacity. They instead face a resource-allocation problem: how should limited training time and recovery capacity be distributed across strength, muscle mass, cardiorespirator...

On your Marx, Escobar, Bourdieu: Theorising children’s public decision-making and aiming for change

This article develops theoretical understanding of children’s participation in national-level public decision-making, strengthening insight into how to pursue influence. Using aspects of the work of Bourdieu, Marxist theories and Escobar’s writing on Epistemologies of the South,...

Longitudinal associations of objectively measured sedentary behaviour and physical activity intensities with urinary incontinence among middle-aged women: a cohort study

Abstract Background Urinary incontinence is a prevalent condition among middle-aged women, yet its relationship with activity behaviours remains underexplored. This study aimed to explore the longitudinal associations between objectively measured sedentary behaviour and physical...

Limits at Infinity for Functions in Fractional Sobolev Spaces

Abstract We establish optimal results on limits at infinity for functions in fractional Sobolev spaces.

Phototrophicity and genomic composition in plant-associated Sphingomonas faeni strains

Abstract Solar radiation impacts most life forms on Earth as an energy source or a regulatory signal. Still, relatively little is known about phototrophic potential and strategies of environmental bacteria beyond cyanobacteria. This study explores the phototrophy related genomic...

Identification of a nanosecond isomer of $$^{164}$$Tb

Abstract This letter reports on the identification of a new isomeric state of $$^{164}$$ 164 Tb ( $$Z=65$$ Z = 65 , $$N=99$$ N = 99 ), which was measured with the DESPEC setup at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH following the first relativistic fragmentation...

Six weeks of isometric resistance training led to evidence of corticospinal but not reticulospinal adaptation in previously untrained adult males

Abstract The latest hypothesis regarding the source of enhanced neural activation from resistance training is the reticulospinal rather than the corticospinal tract, based on invasive animal and emerging human data. The present study employed a six-week isometric resistance train...

A numerical implementation of the NLO DIS structure functions in the dipole picture

We present a numerical program that evaluates deep inelastic scattering (DIS) structure functions at next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy in the dipole picture. In this numerical implementation the NLO DIS impact factors with massive quarks are written in a form that ensures a st...

Approximating prediction error variances and reliabilities in a multiple-trait genomic prediction model using Monte Carlo sampling

Abstract Key message We evaluated four existing Monte Carlo-based methods for approximating prediction error variances and reliabilities in a multiple-trait genomic prediction model. All four methods yielded consistent approximations of the exact values. Abstract Genomic predicti...

Maximal O2 Uptake Is Higher During Whole-Body Compared to Lower-Body Exercise due to Higher Convective, but not Diffusive, O2 Transport

PURPOSE: Maximal O2 uptake (V̇O2max) is higher during whole-body compared to lower-body large muscle mass exercise. However, whether this is explained by differences in convective or diffusive O2 transport is unclear. We examined differences in components of the O2 pathway and mu...

Codebase release 1.0 for NLODIS

We present a numerical program that evaluates deep inelastic scattering (DIS) structure functions at next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy in the dipole picture. In this numerical implementation the NLO DIS impact factors with massive quarks are written in a form that ensures a st...

Automatic Analysis of Dialogic Argumentation: An Exploratory Study on Performance of Large Language Models in Context of Secondary Mathematics and Science Education

This study explores dialogic argumentation in secondary-level mathematics lessons and the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLMs) to analyze these interactions. Its primary aim is to explore how and to what extent AI can assist in automating the...

Orchestrating Anion–π + Interactions to Accelerate Metal‐Free Room‐Temperature Phosphorescence

ABSTRACT Overcoming the long‐standing trade‐off between efficiency and radiative rate in metal‐free phosphorescence remains a central challenge in molecular photophysics and is pivotal for the next‐generation optoelectronic technologies. Here, we demonstrate that tuning the stren...

Inclusive charm and bottom quark pair production cross sections at hadron colliders at next-to-next-to-leading-order accuracy

Abstract The inclusive cross sections for charm (ccbar) and bottom (bbbar) quark-antiquark pair production in proton-proton, proton-antiproton, and proton-nucleus collisions are studied over a wide range of center-of-mass energies, √ s ≈ 10 GeV-400 TeV. All existing data over √ s...

Ionomic responses to increasing environmental copper: results from experimental evolution of the bacterium Serratia marcescens

Abstract Divalent cations such as copper (Cu) occur in trace amounts yet play critical roles in bacterial physiology. Despite its essentiality, Cu is toxic at elevated concentrations and is widely applied as a bactericide, requiring cells to balance uptake, sequestration and effl...

Time‐Aware UNet and Super‐Resolution Deep Residual Networks for Spatial Downscaling

ABSTRACT Satellite observations of atmospheric pollutants are often available only at coarse spatial resolution, which limits their use in local‐scale environmental analysis. Spatial downscaling methods aim to transform such data into high‐resolution fields. In this work, two wid...

Returning dignity to the victims by ‘rendering history legible’: Georges Didi-Huberman, dialectical montage and the question of the archive

This text examines Georges Didi-Huberman's philosophy of visuality, focusing on the use of archival images of mass atrocity, partly in response to the ethical and political problem of engaging with photographs taken by perpetrators of violence. Challenging commentators on Claude...

The future of high-dose, high-intensity neurorehabilitation: Consensus-based core recommendations from the fourth Stroke Recovery and Rehabilitation Roundtable

Objective: Convergent evidence indicates that high-dose, high-intensity rehabilitation (HDHI) improves outcomes beyond usual care after stroke, yet implementation remains limited. While questions of optimal dose, timing, and delivery format continue to be refined, the biological...

Complementary strengths of the Neyman-Rubin and graphical causal frameworks

This article contributes to the discussion on the relationship between the Neyman-Rubin and the graphical frameworks for causal inference. We present specific examples of data-generating mechanisms — such as those involving undirected or deterministic relationships and cycles — w...

Using the Stressor-System-Resilience Resources-Outcomes (SSRO) scaffold to clarify the core components of resilience research in medicine

Abstract Modern medicine increasingly extends beyond treating disease to supporting individuals through recovery, adaptation, and long-term functioning, all central to the concept of resilience. Despite growing interest, resilience remains conceptually difficult to structure and...
