Heritage without people, heritage without time: The preservation paradigm in contemporary Egypt
This article situates the current Egyptian regime’s de facto rejection of adaptive reuse or participatory preservation projects within the lineage of colonial notions of heritage. Much like its colonial predecessors, the regime deals with heritage as its private property, deployi...

Maternal and paternal postpartum depression relationship: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Abstract Background Pregnancy is a stressful phenomenon not only for mothers but also for fathers. Fathers may experience symptoms similar to depression influenced by their emotional relationships with their partners. A better understanding of the factors contributing to paternal...

Version 3 substantially reframes and shortens the paper following additional reference-frame and peculiar-flow analysis. The revised version interprets the original predictive result as an empirical recovery of known local velocity structure rather than evidence for a new unexpla...

Background: Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a chronic inflammatory condition that causes painful oral ulcers that impair eating and speech. Topical triamcinolone is commonly used, but non-steroidal natural and synthetic alternatives are increasingly studied. This systemati...

ABSTRACT Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are crucial components of dryland ecosystems; however, they are highly vulnerable to anthropogenic disturbances, particularly trampling caused by grazing. To evaluate the impacts of trampling on biocrust structure, microbial communities...

Central Bank Economic Transparency and Managerial Learning
Abstract Central banks increasingly disclose their private information regarding the economy’s current and future state (CBET). Consistent with CBET shifting investors’ collection and pricing of aggregate-level (where managers do not have an information advantage) toward firm-lev...

Pd/Tl Bimetal-Catalyzed C8–H Alkenylation of Dimethoxycoumarins
Abstract A Pd/Tl bimetallic catalytic method for the regioselective C8–H alkenylation of dimethoxycoumarin scaffolds was developed. The synergistic effects of Tl(OCOCF3)3 and a Pd–thioether ligand catalytic system enabled electrophilic C–H bond activation, followed by Heck-type a...

Built, but not replaced: The policy failure behind the UK's ageing greenhouse sector
Societal Impact Statement Glass greenhouse horticulture is a highly productive but often overlooked component of UK agricultural, environmental and food policy, with significant potential to contribute to food security, public health and climate resilience. This paper argues that...

The military that isn’t: how legalized anti‑militarism shapes the limits of Japan’s defense policy
Scholarship increasingly claims that Japan’s anti‑militarism has eroded, pointing to rising defense spending, expanding Self‑Defense Forces (SDF) missions, and new counterstrike capabilities. This paper challenges that view by highlighting a neglected but enduring dimension of an...

Trade in Low‐Carbon Technologies: The Role of Climate and Trade Policies
ABSTRACT Curbing carbon emissions to meet the targets set in the Paris Agreement requires the deployment of low‐carbon technologies (LCTs) at a global scale. This paper assesses the role of climate and trade policies in fostering LCT diffusion through trade. Leveraging a comprehe...

Automatic Cucumber Maturity Classification and Size Estimation via RGB-D Vision and YOLOv8n
Automated cucumber harvesting requires a perception system that can detect fruit, assess ripeness and localize the peduncle for cutting under real commercial greenhouse conditions. This study proposes an RGB-D perception framework combining YOLOv8n object detection with depth-bas...

E8 Phi-Resonant Prime Gap Modulation — E8 Intelligence Research
By encoding prime gaps as angular displacements of the 240 E8 root vectors, each step is scaled by the golden ratio φ and locked to the 132 Hz fundamental frequency. This φ‑coupled E8 spiral maps the Dirichlet prime spiral onto a harmonic lattice where the same‑window filter sele...

OBJECTIVES: When ultrasound (US) and computed tomography (CT) are both clinically indicated, unpaired image translation may support model development but cannot replace either examination. We evaluated Anatomy-Preserving Contrastive Unpaired Translation (AP-CUT), a CUT-based fram...

Quantum Consciousness Videos: No Novel Math, Derivative Theories Only — E8 Intelligence Research
FINDING: The search results are a collection of popular-science videos and speculative documentaries on quantum consciousness, not a primary research finding. No novel mathematical insight is presented; the content is derivative of existing theories (e.g., Penrose-Hameroff Orch-O...
