Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted vulnerable populations globally, including families with intellectually disabled children in Thailand. This qualitative study explores the experiences and needs of these families engaged in organic farming as a sustainable liv...

Addressing anthropogenic noise and electrical anisotropy hints in magnetotelluric data from the Annecy area (French Pre-Alps)

The magnetotelluric (MT) method is a widely used tool for geothermal reservoir exploration due to its capability of imaging fluids in the Earth’s crust. However, in urbanised environments, its application is often challenged by anthropogenic noise and low signal-to-noise ratios....

Metacognitive Training for Negative Symptoms (MCT-Minus) in schizophrenia: study protocol for a pragmatic randomized controlled trial

Abstract Background Negative symptoms are experienced by up to 60% of the individuals with schizophrenia and represent a stronger indicator of current and future functioning than positive symptoms. These symptoms respond poorly to pharmacological and existing psychosocial interve...

The Björck classification of the open abdomen revisited: clarifying concepts for modern complex abdomen management

Abstract Introduction The open abdomen (OA) has become an integral component of modern acute care, trauma, and vascular surgery. Since 2009, the Björck classification, amended in 2016, has provided a common language for describing the status and progression of the OA and remains...

Accessing Academia in Exile: Experiences of Displaced Ukrainian Scholars in Sweden and University Responses

Abstract This study investigates the labour market experiences of highly skilled Ukrainian academics who sought refuge in Sweden following Russia’s 2022 invasion. Although the displacement represents Europe’s largest migration crisis since World War II, Ukrainian refugees have ge...

Flow Synthesis of Muscone‐Macrocycles Using the Eschenmoser Rearrangement as a Key Step

ABSTRACT Hydrazone formation followed by Eschenmoser fragmentation are key steps in the synthesis of muscone‐type macrocycles. However, these require long reaction times and typically result in many side reactions leading to complex reaction mixtures requiring extensive separatio...

How Norms Depend on the Presence and Status of Observers: The Relational Contingency of Everyday Behaviors in 90 Societies

Norms are fundamental to social life, but basic questions about how they are affected by social context remain. Specifically, how do normative constraints depend on the presence and status of observers, and how do such relational contingencies vary across cultures? Using data fro...

The associations between mental health symptoms and cognitive and social functioning among school-aged children from diverse migration backgrounds

Abstract Background Mental health symptoms may be linked to cognitive and social functioning in school-aged children, but less is known about whether these associations differ across migration-background groups. Methods We examined cognitive, social, and mental health measures am...

Interhemispheric perspective on the most extreme surface winds in the storm tracks

Abstract. Extratropical cyclones occur most frequently over the oceans, where they cause the strongest extreme surface winds. In this study, we investigate extreme surface winds during winter months in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, when the wind storms are the strongest....

P1.223. Outcomes After Oesophageal Resection in Octogenarians: A Nationwide Population-Based Cohort Study

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer – early outcomes and complications Background The incidence of oesophageal cancer increases with age, yet octogenarians remain underrepresented in surgical series. Evidence regarding the safety and oncologi...

Familial Co‐Aggregation of Neurodevelopmental Conditions and Childhood‐Onset Type 1 Diabetes

ABSTRACT Aim Childhood‐onset Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with neurodevelopmental conditions (NDCs). We examined whether this association extends to relatives and assessed phenotypic, genetic, and environmental correlations between T1D and NDCs. Methods Using Swedish regis...

A comprehensive review of ferrite-based electrical motors for electric vehicle applications

This paper presents a comparative review of ferrite-based traction motors for electric vehicle (EV) applications. While numerous studies have examined ferrite-based motor designs in isolation, the literature still lacks a systematic comparative assessment across three levels: (i)...

Clinical Outcomes of Fixed Dental Prostheses Supported by Teeth or Implants in the Posterior Region—A Long‐Term Retrospective Multicenter Study

BACKGROUND: Few long-term studies compare tooth- and implant-supported fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) in the posterior region. OBJECTIVES: To compare the 5- and 10-year survival and complication outcomes of tooth- and implant-supported FDPs and to assess patient-reported effects....

Structure-guided allosteric modulation of the delta opioid receptor

Abstract Opioid analgesics remain essential for pain management but are associated with significant adverse effects, including respiratory depression, tolerance, and dependence. The δ-opioid receptor (δOR) represents a promising therapeutic target for developing safer opioid anal...

An additional water is introduced into the manganese cluster during the formation of the S3 state of photosystem II

During photosynthetic water oxidation, the Mn4Ca cluster in Photosystem II progresses through five intermediate Si (i = 0–4) states. X-ray crystallography studies have reported the insertion of one new O ligand during the formation of the S3 state, but recent studies question the...

Complementary strengths of the Neyman-Rubin and graphical causal frameworks
