Admissible Non-Injective Transitions as the Primitive of Physical Description

Quantum mechanics is the effective theory of physically real unresolved admissible structures and their resolution. This paper establishes the minimal axiomatic foundation from which this claim follows: physical structure is derived from a single primitive, the local structure of...

Probabilistic surrogate modeling for gas foil bearing stability

Abstract In the context of Industry 4.0, improving the reliability and efficiency of rotating machinery remains a relevant challenge, particularly for systems employing Gas Foil Bearings (GFBs). This paper investigates the development of surrogate models based on Bayesian Neural...

Transport disadvantage and suppressed travel among low-income older adults: Lived experiences of social housing tenants in Ghent

Transport disadvantage is widely researched, yet less is known about how mobility constraints translate into suppressed travel: desired but unrealised trips. This paper examines suppressed travel among low-income older adults, focusing on social housing tenants in Ghent, Belgium....

FT-IR–based strategy for Streptococcus pneumoniae serotyping using machine-learning classifiers

Rapid serotype identification of circulating Streptococcus pneumoniae is essential for both effective epidemiological surveillance and clinical management. The gold standard serotyping method (Quellung reaction) is time-consuming, labor-intensive and expensive. Fourier transform...

Nutritional insights in endodontics: a review of micronutrients in root canal therapy

Purpose: Micronutrients play critical and multifaceted roles in the biological processes governing endodontic healing. This review aimed to evaluate the therapeutic roles of essential micronutrients, including vitamin D, vitamin C, calcium, zinc, magnesium, and selenium, in modul...

Bioactive composition and pharmacology of red wine, beer, and Huangjiu (Chinese rice wine): a review

Red wine, beer, and Huangjiu (Chinese rice wine) are widely consumed fermented alcoholic beverages whose compositions and health effects have attracted considerable interest. Current evidence indicates that fermentation endows these beverages with diverse bioactive compounds such...

Production competition and carbon emissions reduction cooperation

Purpose Under the carbon cap-and-trade (CCT) policy, the supply chain is increasingly focused on carbon emissions reduction (CER), for which remanufacturing offers a promising pathway. However, independent remanufacturers (IRs) must first obtain remanufacturing authorization from...

Metaphor in population-based AI

Abstract English serves as the primary source language for Artificial Intelligence terminology, playing a pivotal role in shaping the metaphorical expressions that underpin specialized lexicons and facilitate knowledge transfer. This study investigates the patterns of metaphorica...

County-Level Geographic Access and Cardiovascular Disease Outcomes in Washington State

BACKGROUND: Geographic access to specialized cardiac care varies widely, yet how these disparities relate to population-level cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes remains poorly understood. OBJECTIVES: The objective of the study was to evaluate county-level disparities in geogra...

Acceptability of oral health care: a scoping review of reviews to inform framework development

Abstract Background Canada launched the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) in 2023 to improve access by reducing cost barriers. Data from September 2025 indicate that only about half of enrollees had accessed services, highlighting that addressing affordability alone may not be suf...

Formal Multi-Agent AI System Architecture: Generic AI Framework Development under Solvency II and AI Act in Austria and Germany

Version 1.0.1: This version removes an inadvertently duplicated passage in the protocols section. No results, claims or references were changed. This paper proposes a formal multi-agent architecture for implementing enterprise AI in regulated insurance firms, integrating economic...

65 TOPS optoelectronic multi-core computing unlocking multi-feature fusion enhancement

The rapid progress of artificial intelligence demands scalable, energy-efficient hardware with massive parallelism and high throughput. Although optical computing offers a promising post-Moore solution, current implementations face speed limitations and multi-core integration cha...

Associations of asthma with obesity phenotypes and dyslipidemia among Korean adolescents: a secondary data analysis of the Eighth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey

PURPOSE: This study investigated the association of asthma with obesity phenotypes and dyslipidemia among Korean adolescents. METHODS: This secondary analysis included 1,723 adolescents aged 10-18 years, using data from the Eighth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination S...

Landscape of industry-sponsored oncology trials across the Thai Society of Clinical Oncology (TSCO): a 12-year multicenter analysis

Cancer remains a major global health challenge and is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Thailand. Industry-sponsored oncology trials (ISOTs) provide critical access to innovative therapies, including targeted agents, immunotherapies (IO), and antibody–drug conjugates...

Metabolic deterioration in a patient with refractory status epilepticus complicated by refeeding syndrome: a case report

A 50-year-old moderately built woman with hypothyroidism presented with acute-onset headache, neck pain, vomiting, and transient confusion. She developed seizures in the emergency department requiring intubation. She was subsequently reintubated for refractory status epilepticus,...
