Cosmetic parameters associated with SRS-22r improvement postoperatively in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a 2-year follow-up

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) significantly impacts physical appearance and quality of life. This exploratory study aims to investigate potential association between cosmetic parameters and minimal clinical improvement in SRS-22r scores at a 2-year follow-up in AIS patien...

CV→0: Autonomous Evolution Protocol for Invariant Discovery Systems - From Search Mechanism to Intelligence

Experimental protocol defining four stages of increasing autonomy for systems that discover invariants through the CV→0criterion (coefficient of variation of the ratio "expression / target variable").Stage 0: Reliable Invariant Extraction.Stage1: Living System (Population).Stage...

Orbital Engineering via Double‐Exchange Interaction in a Bimetallic MOF for Electrocatalytic C─S Coupling of CO 2 and Sulfate

ABSTRACT Guided by molecular orbital theory, we have designed and synthesized a novel bimetallic metal‐organic framework (BTC‐Co‐O‐Cu‐BTA) for the electrocatalytic C─S coupling of CO 2 and sulfate. The integration of edge/corner‐sharing CoO 6 octahedra and CuO 5 square pyramids e...

Predicting Y chromosome microdeletions in male infertility patients using machine learning models: a retrospective clinical study

Y chromosome microdeletions (YCMs) are the second most prevalent genetic determinant of male infertility, but validated predictive models are limited. We retrospectively enrolled 4096 male infertility patients (October 2013–October 2023) for model development and randomly divided...

Early‐Stage Esophago‐Mediastinal Fistula After Atrial Fibrillation Radiofrequency Ablation Successfully Treated With Endoscopic Vacuum Therapy

ABSTRACT Background Esophageal injury is a rare but potentially fatal complication of atrial fibrillation ablation, predominantly associated with thermal energy sources. Case Summary A 37‐year‐old man developed an esophago‐mediastinal fistula after radiofrequency ablation for atr...

Impacto econômico da implementação de um protocolo institucional de analgossedação em uma Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal

Introdução: A analgossedação adequada é imprescindível no manejo de pacientes críticos em Unidades de Terapia Intensiva Neonatais (UTIN). Contudo, o manejo criterioso de fármacos é crucial para evitar tanto a submedicação quanto os desfechos adversos associados ao excesso terapêu...

Nitro Reduction‐Based RNA Control and Ultrafast Release

RNA protection and controlled release are critical for both fundamental research and therapeutic applications, yet the development of simple, efficient, and reversible post-synthetic RNA modification strategies remains a significant challenge. Here, we introduce a straightforward...

Quaternionic Buzano-Dragomir Inequality and Deutsch Entropic Uncertainty Principle

We show that the Buzano-Dragomir inequality holds for quaternionic Hilbert spaces. Using this generalization, we derive the Dragomir inequality for the quaternionic numerical radius and Deutsch entropic uncertainty principle for quaternionic Hilbert spaces.

Inventa AI - Artificial Intelligence for Intellectual Property

Inventa AI Europe’s AI-native infrastructure for intellectual property PROBLEM Intellectual property is inaccessible to most innovators Patent filing takes 1–3 years Costs range from €5K–€50K+ (prohibitive for 95% of EU SMEs) Prior art search is manual and unreliable SMEs and sta...

Developmental Relations Between Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Depression in Childhood: A Symptom Level Perspective

Background Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) has substantial comorbidity with depression. However, their comorbidity at the symptom level, including potential gender differences, is currently underspecified. This study aimed to explore the comorbidity network of ODD and depress...

Research on the Driving Mechanism of Digital Infrastructure for Sustainable Development Resilience of Chinese Agriculture

Amid intensifying global geopolitical conflicts and increasingly frequent market fluctuations, enhancing the resilience of agricultural sustainable development has become a core issue for ensuring food security and promoting rural revitalization. Digital infrastructure offers a c...

Objectives: This study aimed to develop and validate a reliable and comprehensive questionnaire to assess patient satisfaction with removable partial dentures (RPDs), addressing both functional and psychosocial aspects of prosthesis use in English, Hindi, and Marathi languages. M...

Climate Migration, Development and Sustainability in the Global South: A Critical Assessment

The relationship between climate change and migration remains widely debated, particularly regarding the extent to which environmental factors directly drive mobility. While climate-related stressors such as droughts, floods, and environmental degradation can disrupt livelihoods,...

Microstructure Uniformity and Mechanical Property Fluctuations in Large-Size Ti-46Al-8Nb-2.5V Ingot with β Solidification Mode

A large-size ingot (Φ200 mm × 800 mm) with the nominal composition Ti-46Al-8Nb-2.5V (in at.%) was fabricated via triple vacuum consumable electrode arc remelting in this study. XRD, SEM-EDS, TEM, tensile testing, and chemical analysis were employed to examine phase composition, m...

Edible Fungi in Functional Aquafeeds: Prebiotic and Immunostimulatory Effects in Commercially Important Farmed Fish

Aquaculture faces structural constraints linked to input sustainability, animal health, and a persistent reliance on fishmeal and fish oil, alongside the intensive use of antibiotics in high-density production systems. In this context, edible fungi have emerged as promising funct...

How to Implement Reactive Digital Textile Printing in an Existing Knit Fabric Printing and Finishing Factory

This article presents a practical, decision-driven roadmap for implementing "reactive digital textile printing" in an existing knit-fabric factory operating with conventional rotary printing infrastructure. Rather than treating digital printing as a simple equipment purchase, it...

A family of ultrathin non-van der waals kamiokite-type oxides for two-dimensional electronics

Non-van der Waals (vdW) two-dimensional (2D) metal oxides provide an opportunity to enrich the current 2D material library and accelerate the adoption of 2D materials into future electronic devices. However, the exploration of 2D non-vdW oxides remains limited, constrained by syn...

Association Between Upper Airway Morphology and Pulmonary Function in Vietnamese Orthodontic Patients: A Cone-Beam Computed Tomography and Computational Fluid Dynamics Study
