Indigenous languages in Peru: current needs from linguistic, sociological, and political science perspectives

This article analyzes the current needs of Indigenous languages in Peru by integrating perspectives from linguistics, sociology, and political science. Going beyond a diagnostic of endangerment, we argue that current revitalization efforts suffer from a functional approach that b...

AI Governance, Urban Sustainability Transitions, and the Institutional Determinants of Smart City Transformation: A Comparative Cross-City Framework

This study advances a governance-centred framework for understanding how artificial intelligence contributes to urban sustainability transitions. Drawing on systematic thematic analysis of 80 primary policy documents across five global cities—Singapore, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Seou...

SynergisticAdsorption and Photocatalysis over Ag2CO3/Coca-Cola-Modifiedg-C3N4 for Antibiotic Wastewater Treatment

Abstract Considering the limitations of traditional adsorption and standalone photocatalytic technologies, as well as the environmental hazards posed by antibiotics, a novel Ag2CO3/CCN S-scheme heterojunction was fabricated by coupling Ag2CO3 with Coca-Cola-modified g-C3N4 (desig...

What Licenses Sameness Through Change? A Short Orientation to the Identity-Persistence Program Toward a Structural Theory of Regime Specification

Abstract This orientation introduces the Identity-Persistence Program, a research program investigating the structural conditions under which bounded independent evaluators can license, reproduce, and verify persistence and admissibility judgments under declared regimes. Rather t...

Experimental and Numerical Study on the Pyrolysis Pathways of C7H3F13O in Simulated Battery Immersion System

This study investigates the high-temperature pyrolysis pathways and product distribution of the battery immersion coolant HFE-7300 (C7H3F13O) within a simulated thermal runaway environment. Using a tube furnace system combined with GC-MS analysis across a temperature range of 300...

Performance Evaluation in Small Hierarchical Call Centres in a Transient Regime: A Case Study

Abstract This paper addresses a fundamental and practically significant problem in call centre operations, determining optimal call allocation policies and evaluating their performance so as to meet client service targets while minimising staffing costs. Motivated by a problem pr...

The Therapeutic Architecture of Chlorogenic Acids: Molecular Mechanisms in Chronic Disease Prevention

This review examines the structural variety, distribution, and physicochemical properties of chlorogenic acids (CGAs), identifying coffee and green coffee as the leading dietary sources of these compounds. Preclinical studies indicate that plant-derived phenolic compounds exhibit...

Selective Neurectomy and Masseteric-to-Zygomatic Nerve Transfer With Processed Nerve Allograft for Postparalytic Ocular Sequelae: Preliminary Results

Oro-ocular synkinesis is a debilitating sequela of facial nerve injury. While selective neurectomy (SN) offers a surgical alternative to botulinum toxin, its efficacy is often limited by recurrence. This study evaluates the feasibility and preliminary results of combining targete...

Bridging the Chunk Gap: Pre-Computed Narrative Summaries for Temporally Grounded Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems that rely solely on fixed-length text chunksfor retrieval systematically lose the narrativearc and chronological context inherent in temporally structured data sources such as issuetracking records. We propose augmenting theretrieval i...

Review on Palladium-Catalyzed CO2 Hydrogenationto Formic Acid: From Nanoparticles, Clusters, to Single Atoms

Abstract CO2 hydrogenation to formic acid, a key catalytic topic for carbon neutrality, converts inert CO2 into a valuable chemical and hydrogen carrier. Palladium-based catalysts stand out for their exceptional ability to activate hydrogen. However, their catalytic performance i...

Impact of an early postnatal administration of an energetic supplement on growth performance, behaviour and gut microbiota in piglets with different birth weight classes

Piglets are born with limited energy reserves, and early energy supplementation may improve their growth. This study evaluated the efficacy of an early energetic supplement on growth, mortality, behaviour and gut microbiota (GM). Twenty-two sows and their litters (12.9 ± 0.3 pigl...

Uncertainty-Aware Adaptive Edge Blocking in Heterophilic Graph Neural Networks

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) deliver strong performance through message passing (MP), yet they can become fragile when graphs contain many heterophilic links or when edge types are predicted incorrectly. Earlier analyses suggest that signed message propagation can reduce over-smo...

Chronotype, social jetlag, sleep quality, and somatic symptoms in medical students: A serial mediation analysis

Chronotype and social jetlag are important correlates of sleep and health, yet their joint relationship with somatic symptom burden remains insufficiently studied in medical students. This cross-sectional study examined the associations among chronotype, social jetlag, sleep qual...

Much Ado about Prompting: LLM classification of text messages from experiments

Researchers who classify text with large language models often possess codebooks written for human annotators. We ask how these codebooks can serve as prompts. Using three codebooks from experimental economics (one on promise classification, two on strategic thinking), we vary th...

Multi-omics and single-cell analysis link the pan-cancer TOP2A-immune exclusion paradox to a non-cell-autonomous dilution effect

Abstract Background TOP2A is universally upregulated in human cancers, yet its negative correlation with immune infiltration in bulk transcriptomes remains mechanistically unresolved at single-cell resolution. Methods We integrated multi-omics data across 34 cancer types with ext...

Protocol Epistemology of Finiteness: Polyadic Algebra, Sheaf Cohomology, Topological Regularization in Hyper-Rete Architecture, and Six Rigorous Extensions (v6.0.0 — analytic β₄>0, holonomic rotation, Leapfrog Triejoin for 2‑simplices, unified penalty bridge)

We present a rigorous mathematical framework for protocol epistemology of finiteness — a synthesis of enriched category theory, Sokolov's polyadic algebra, Munerman's algebraic data-processing models, non-abelian Čech cohomology, and Amari's information geometry with Friston's fr...

Manipulation of biological systems by self-defecting and foreign agents

Biological systems maintain structure and function through hierarchical control, redundancy and surveillance across scales. These same features create leverage points for agents that establish a persistent presence in host systems, including foreign agents such as pathogens, para...

Coupled air–sea interactions drove and sustained the 2013–2016 North Pacific marine heatwave

Abstract The 2013–2016 marine heatwave (MHW) in the Northeastern Pacific ranks among the most intense extratropical ocean warming events on record. Its intricate evolution has complicated efforts to understand the underlying dynamics crucial for predicting future MHWs. Here, we t...
