Distant water fishing and its effects on domestic food security

Governments around the world have identified distant water fleets (DWFs) as a key threat to ecosystem health, domestic economic opportunities, and food security. With a high prevalence of undernutrition and micronutrient deficiencies in countries where DWFs operate, the aquatic f...

Reliability-oriented CUSUM monitoring of breast cancer features using Burr–X distribution and progressive censoring

Accurate monitoring of disease progression is critical in oncology to detect subtle changes in tumor characteristics. In breast cancer (BC) diagnosis and monitoring, morphological features of cell nuclei, such as the mean radius, serve as vital biomarkers. This study propose a mo...

Normative clinical language data and task specific effects

Language production in clinical populations varies by both neurological condition and discourse task. This study analyzes connected speech from 1394 individuals with left or right hemisphere damage, Traumatic Brain Injury, Mild Cognitive Impairment, dementia, or no neurological d...

Skipping of Exon 38 in Neurofibromatosis Type 1 Gene Is Not a Pathogenic Variant

ABSTRACT Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the NF1 tumor suppressor gene, encoding neurofibromin. Pathogenic variants include point mutations, exon deletions, and splicing alterations, leading to diverse clinical manifestation...

Energy-efficient thermal performance of walls and windows for four building orientations in four Indian climatic zones: A verified dynamic analysis of insulation, glazing type and glazing area

Facade design rules for Indian dwellings are still drawn largely from mid-latitude studies. This article presents a verified dynamic analysis of the thermal performance and energy requirements of external walls and windows for four orientations in New Delhi, Mumbai, Jaipur and Sh...

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of 2‐methoxy‐4‐vinylphenol Production Driven By Microbial–Environmental Interactions During Zaopei Fermentation of Strong‐Flavor Baijiu

ABSTRACT 2‐Methoxy‐4‐vinylphenol (4‐vg) is a key bioactive phenolic compound that confers flavor complexity and health benefits in strong‐flavor Baijiu (SFB), but its dynamic formation during fermentation remains unclear. In solid‐state heterogeneous fermentation system, material...

Nickel-Catalyzed Tandem Dimerization/Hydroheteroarylation of Isoprenes with Heteroarenes

Abstract Herein, we report the first nickel-catalyzed tandem dimerization/hydroheteroarylation of isoprenes with indoles, using a catalytic system consisting of a heteroleptic Ni(II) complex Ni(IPr*OMe)[P(OEt)3]Br2 and a base NaOtBu. This system provides easy access to a range of...

Neuraxial Medication Administration Errors During Anaesthesia and Perioperative Management, Consequences, Contributing Human and Systemic Factors and Their Prevention: A Systematic Review

This systematic review aimed to investigate neuraxial administration errors, examine their contributing factors, and evaluate clinical outcomes using a novel harm scale. The author searched PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, EBSCOhost, and Google Scholar for reports from 1981 to 202...

Gender-Affirming Medical Treatment Prevalence, Decision Satisfaction, and Future Need Among Transgender Adults

This survey study documents the prevalence of gender-affirming treatment experiences among adults identifying as transgender in Sweden.

From Feuilleton Turc to geopolitics: how Tunisian audiences consume and interpret Turkish television dramas

Turkish television series and cinema have emerged as significant instruments of cultural projection across South Asia, Latin America, and particularly the Middle East and North Africa. Tunisia represents a sustained site of reception within this transnational media flow, where Tu...

A component-aware progressive transfer learning method for wind power forecasting in newly built wind farms

Accurate wind power forecasting is essential for wind farm operation and grid integration. However, newly built wind farms often have limited historical data, restricting the performance of data-driven models. Under data scarcity, conventional deep learning models tend to overfit...

High-school stories and semiotic bodies: autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR) in the cultural field

Abstract In dialogue with Sigmund Freud, D. W. Winnicott, Stuart Hall and Julia Kristeva, this article examines ASMR as phenomena, representational form and modality of performance. Through a close analysis of the high-school subgenre, it is argued that affect and storytelling ar...

Long-term patterns in phenotypic plasticity of chironomid head capsules in small high-elevation subarctic lakes: exploring possible mechanisms using multi-proxy paleolimnological records

Abstract We quantified temporal variation in the head capsule (HC) length of subfossil chironomids from two high-elevation subarctic lakes in northern Sweden and explored its potential drivers using chironomid assemblages, sedimentary pigments, and stable isotope analyses. Althou...

Analysis of Eulerian Methods for Droplet Collection Efficiency on Two-Dimensional Surfaces Under Aircraft Icing Conditions

The calculation of droplet collection efficiency is a critical procedure in numerical simulations of aircraft ice accretion and anti-/de-icing processes, in which the Eulerian framework is predominantly employed, especially on complex surfaces. Based on the droplet streamlines ob...
