Extreme Risk Protection Order laws and fatal violence against women: a quasi-experimental study
Background Rates of intimate partner homicides of women in the USA are high relative to other high-income countries, especially those involving firearms. We evaluated one potential policy solution by examining state Extreme Risk Protection Order (ERPO) firearm transfer laws and i...

The Right Key, the Wrong Lock: TIGIT Checkpoint Blockade and the Road to Precision Immunotherapy
T-cell immunoreceptor with immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) domains (TIGIT) emerged as one of the most promising next-generation immune checkpoint targets following the success of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), programmed death-lig...

Nuclear Stabilisation Framework v1.0: Inertial Vector Phase-Locking for Beta-Decay Suppression
[ABSTRACT]This paper presents a nuclear stabilisation framework using inertial vector phase-locking. The phase S_μ = η_μν v_I^ν (t' - t) locks beta decay when t' = t. The 4D inertial vector v_I^ν provides directionality. A scalar k(t' - t) fails to reproduce the observed physical...

Four Decades of Stress, Depression, and Close Relationships: Lessons from Psychoneuroimmunology
Human psychoneuroimmunology research has demonstrated that stress, depression, and close relationships reliably shape immune and endocrine function in ways that matter for health. Across studies of examination stress, laboratory stressors, marital discord, cancer survivorship, an...

Systematic evidence review on radiosensitizers and the abscopal effects of radiotherapy
BACKGROUND: The abscopal effect, defined as regression of non-irradiated tumors following localized radiotherapy (RT), is increasingly recognized as an immune-mediated phenomenon. Radiosensitizers may enhance this effect by amplifying radiation-induced immunogenicity and systemic...

Medical Laboratory Technologists’ Perceptions of Laboratory Information Systems
Laboratory Information Systems (LIS) are essential for managing laboratory workflows, yet their effectiveness depends on user acceptance. This study examined Medical Laboratory Technologists’ (MLTs’) perceptions of LIS in Indonesian laboratories. This sequential explanatory mixed...

Verify, Augment, Improve: Self-Adaptation Repair via Automated Knowledge Augmentation from Mistakes
Cyber–Physical Systems (CPSs) operate under uncertainty and cannot always guarantee the satisfaction of dependability requirements. Proactive self-adaptation mitigates violations by planning corrective actions, often leveraging predictive models. These models can be inaccurate in...

Pho84/GLUT2 are cellular myo-inositol exporters regulated by inositol pyrophosphates
Abstract Inositol is an essential nutrient for most living organisms, as combinatorial phosphorylation on this cyclic sugar generates key cellular messengers, such as lipid-bound phosphoinositides (PtdInsPs), water-soluble inositol phosphates (InsPs), and high-energy inositol pyr...
