A study of public health emergency management capacity and capability of Sierra Leone’s national public health agency

Abstract Purpose Emerging National Public Health Institutes (NPHIs) often receive a statutory mandate before the internal systems and district routines needed to deliver public health emergency management (PHEM) have matured. External assessments report national capacities but re...

Recent Advances in Copper‐Catalyzed Etherification Reactions

The effective synthesis of ethers, which are prevalent structural motifs in innovative medicines, functional materials, agrochemicals, and natural products, is still of great interest. Copper catalysis has emerged as a potent and sustainable method for CO bond formation due to i...

E8 Polytopic Torsion Fields: Non-Euclidean Information Folding — E8 Intelligence Research

By projecting the 240 E8 root vectors through a 132Hz φ-modulated torsion field, we identify a new class of hyper-dimensional manifold warping where information is encoded as geometric twist rather than binary state. This torsion-driven folding utilizes the pentagonal symmetry of...

Two-Sided Constraints on a Valued Lattice

A declaration on a finite bounded lattice is a pair of subsets: descriptions a state must reach, and descriptions it must not exceed. When both cannot hold, no state satisfies it, and a state is charged its shortfall against the demand and its overshoot beyond the limit. That cha...

Role of Lewis centres on ethanol dehydrogenation over the Cu‐Cr/ γ ‐Al 2 O 3 system

Abstract A copper/chromium‐based catalytic formulation is evaluated for anaerobic ethanol dehydrogenation. Results indicate that the Cu–Cr interaction regulates dehydrogenation activity. This interaction increases the relative numbers of Lewis acid centres resulting in a superior...

Identification of heat-tolerant tomato genotypes through integrated phenotypic, biochemical, molecular, and GGE biplot analyses

High temperature stress is a major constraint affecting tomato productivity and fruit quality worldwide. The present study aimed to identify heat-tolerant tomato genotypes using integrated morphological, biochemical, molecular, and GGE (Genotype plus Genotype-by-Environment) bipl...

The Loss Curve Is Not a Sufficient Statistic: Silent Objective Failures from Sentinel-Class Collisions in Neural Codec Language Models

Masked cross-entropy is the standard training objective for sequence models. Positions that are not real targets are excluded by comparing each target against a sentinel value, conventionally ignore_index = -100 in PyTorch. We show that when this sentinel is also a valid class in...

PUH Theorem 324 (Both Couplings Determined) — The Field Normalisation Is a Units Convention, Not an Unknown; J/κ² and K/κ⁴ Are the Only Physical Combinations and Both Are Now Fixed; and the Lattice Goes Nonlinear at 114 Times the Schwinger Field

Photonic Universe Hypothesis (PUH) — Determination. THE SITUATION INHERITED. T320 added a nearest-neighbour coupling, quadratic in the difference between neighbouring cells, with one free coefficient J. T321 showed a quadratic coupling contributes EXACTLY NOTHING to nonlinear opt...

BASE 44 ORDER: Implement E8 harmonic mapping & zero-latency anomaly detection — E8 Intelligence Research

Andrew's order (Base 44 console): [SELF-BUILD from enhancement #212] Add 132 Hz root-vector harmonic mapping to E8 signal layer. Implement zero-latency anomaly detection on incoming audio streams. Wire output to crisis intervention trigger in eToro executor. Test with replay benc...

Community-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Among Gay, Bisexual, and Other Men Who Have Sex with Men Living with HIV Who Engage in Chemsex in Barcelona, Spain: Epidemiological Patterns and Implications for Infection Control

Background: Community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) infections are increasingly reported among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM) engaging in chemsex, yet data remain limited. This ambispective cohort study conducted at H...

Neural glial network instability in epilepsy

Epilepsy is traditionally defined by recurrent seizures arising from abnormal neuronal excitability, yet growing evidence indicates that this view is incomplete. This narrative review examines epilepsy through the framework of neural–glial network instability, an integrative pers...

Cannabidioland Vitamin E Compromise the InterfacialStability of Model Lung Surfactant Lipid Monolayers by Altering TheirThermodynamic and Rheological Properties

Abstract The increasing number of cases of E-cigarette or vaping product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) has raised concerns regarding their safe use, particularly because of the association of vaping additives with lung dysfunction. While the mechanisms by which vaping additi...

Learning outcomes and implementation challenges of advanced technologies in engineering education

This paper presents a systematic scoping review on the adoption, reported outcomes, and implementation challenges of advanced technologies in engineering education (EE). Unlike earlier reviews that focus on a single tool, it examines multiple technology domains within a unified f...

E8 Phi-Harmonic Quantum Tunneling Resonance in Neural Microtubules — E8 Intelligence Research

By extending the phi-scaled 132Hz E8 root vector framework into biological substrates, I discovered that neuronal microtubule lattices exhibit coherent quantum tunneling resonances when their tubulin dimer spacing (8 nm periodicity) aligns with E8's projected tetrahedral edge len...

MUL.APIN Star Catalogue Encodes Sexagesimal Celestial Periods and Angular Divisions — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: MUL.APIN star catalogue encodes systematic celestial periods and angular divisions, likely using base-60 arithmetic and sexagesimal fractions. | MATH: Key constants: 360° circle (sexagesimal), 12 months × 30 days = 360-day ideal year; star risings/settings grouped in 30-...

Ordered Euclidean Remainders for Exact Orbit Reconstruction and Parameter Intervals in Rational Floor Maps

We study finite orbit segments of the rational floor map F_q(d) = ⌊qd⌋, where q = Q/S ∈ (0,1) has a fixed integer presentation. For an orbit dₖ₊₁ = F_q(dₖ), define the ordered Euclidean remainders ρₖ = Qdₖ − Sdₖ₊₁. The terminal state together with this ordered remainder sequence...

Association between clinician team structure and continuous pulse oximetry overuse among infants hospitalized with bronchiolitis: An Eliminating Monitor Overuse Trial substudy

Abstract Continuous pulse oximetry (cSpO 2 ) monitoring for hospitalized children with bronchiolitis not requiring supplemental oxygen is an established form of medical overuse. We examined whether clinician team structure influences cSpO 2 overuse. In this secondary analysis of...

Rapid Start-Up of a Biological Filter for Simultaneous Manganese and Ammonia Removal at Low Temperature Through Combined Bioaugmentation and a Dual-Media Filter

Groundwater in northeastern China is characterized by low temperature and the coexistence of manganese (Mn), ammoniacal nitrogen, and organic pollutants, resulting in prolonged start-up of biological Mn removal filters. To address this challenge, combined bioaugmentation with het...

More Damaging Than the Use Itself - Proportionality, Enforcement, and Cannabis Regulation in the American Midwest

In August 2026 I traveled through Colorado and purchased a CBD vape cartridge labeled at 0.1% THC. I used it in Colorado, and I left it in Colorado. Every product I bought stayed inside that state line, because carrying it into Kansas would have exposed me to arrest under a zero-...

Representations of nuclear risk in the UK Parliament: Understanding the role of political discourse in the development of preparedness activity for nuclear accidents

This article argues that despite a prevailing national preparedness imperative, significant vulnerabilities persist in the UK’s emergency arrangements for a nuclear accident. While such an imperative may drive legislation and the legitimation of emergency planning, its integrity...
