Activated carbon production from apple orchard woody waste using a fluidized bed reactor with freezing pretreatment to establish a local circular economy system

Waste is always associated with all activities, and world population growth has caused a significant increase in its production ratio. Improper management of this material can have serious consequences for the environment and; consequently, human life. Agricultural activities are...

Typology of transit-oriented development to promote sustainable urban structure

<title>Abstract</title> Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) has emerged as a transformative strategy in sustainable urban planning, aiming to integrate land use and public transportation to foster compact, walkable, and mixed-use communities centered around high-capacity transit s...

Are oral hygiene behaviors associated with lower stroke risk? A systematic review

This study aims to systematically synthesize observational evidence on the association between oral hygiene behaviors, including tooth brushing, interdental cleaning, dental visits, and professional dental cleaning, and stroke risk in adults. A PRISMA-compliant systematic review...

Modulatory effects of branched-chain amino acid supplementation on neuroendocrine disturbances following traumatic brain injury in rats

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is frequently accompanied by neuroendocrine disturbances involving the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid (HPT) axis and vitamin D–calcium–phosphorus homeostasis. Despite increasing interest in nutritional strategies after TBI, the effects of branched-cha...

Expression profiles of long non-coding RNAs ROCR, CFLAR-AS1, ST7-AS1, and ST7-AS2 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: a case-control study focusing on GCB and non-GCB subtypes

Abstract Background Diffuse Large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is subdivided into the Germinal Center B-cell (GCB) and non-Germinal Center B-cell (non-GCB)/Activated B-cell (ABC) subtypes, with significant clinical, phenotypic, and genetic variability. Investigating DLBCL’s molecular...

Electromembrane extraction combined with a functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube modified electrode for highly sensitive determination of dextromethorphan in pharmaceutical formulations

This study introduces a robust and highly sensitive sensing platform for the pharmaceutical analysis of dextromethorphan (DXM) by integrating electromembrane extraction (EME) with a functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (fMWCNTs/SPCE...

Velocity deviation-based pore type classification in an Iranian carbonate gas reservoir using multiscale integrated data

This study presents an integrated approach to pore type classification in a carbonate gas reservoir from the Dalan/Kangan formations in Iran, utilizing velocity deviation log (VDL) analysis derived from thin sections, conventional well logs, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) data,...

Agricultural interventions in developing-region smallholder systems: A harmonized outcome–metric meta-analysis of productivity, livelihood, and welfare outcomes

Agricultural interventions are central to smallholder productivity, livelihoods, and food-security policy in developing regions, but their evidence base is fragmented across outcomes, effect metrics, designs, and contexts. This study provides a quality-controlled, harmonized outc...

Laser-induced modulation of root dentin surface for growth factor release and enhanced stem cell response

Growth factor release from dentin and subsequent cellular response are critical in endodontic regeneration procedures. This study evaluated the effects of Nd: YAG (1064 nm) and diode lasers (980 nm, 635 nm) at varying energy densities on dentin morphology, Transforming Growth Fac...

The journey of numbers from attention to motor processing: an embodied account of neural response to number magnitudes

Abstract Embodied cognition suggests numbers are linked to physical actions and sensory experiences. Additionally, sensory processing, thoughts or actions are modulated by attentional shifts/control. This study investigates how learned motor associations in individuals (finger-co...
