Soil legacy of SiO 2 nanoparticles impedes fall armyworm oviposition by reprogramming constitutive maize volatiles

Abstract BACKGROUND Host–plant selection for oviposition strongly influences herbivorous insect population establishment and crop damage, and is largely mediated by plant volatile cues. Silicon dioxide nanoparticles (SiO 2 NPs) can modify plant–insect interactions, but whether th...

More Than Stress: How Supervisor Support Shapes the Effects of Workplace Harassment on Employee Satisfaction

This study examines the effect of workplace sexual harassment on job satisfaction by investigating the mediating role of job stress and the moderating role of supervisory support. Using data from the Sixth Korean Working Conditions Survey, the study employs the PROCESS macro to e...

LAB #377 PROMISING: LEDGER BENCH: Apply filter: ETHUSD SHORT @ NY_OPEN with 6 conf — improves win rate from 32.4% to 80. — E8 Intelligence Research

IDEA: Adjustment made to the live model — verify against the backtests: Apply filter: ETHUSD SHORT @ NY_OPEN with 6 conf — improves win rate from 32.4% to 80.0% (+47.6pp, n=5) SAME-WINDOW EFFECT: Over the current live trade window, this filter would have no direct impact because...

Pilot study on the evaluation of efficacy, safety, and tolerability of colchicine combined with acetylsalicylic acid versus acetylsalicylic acid alone in the management of minor acute ischemic strokes

Objectives: Stroke constitutes a public health issue globally, with an increased risk of subsequent vascular events. Inflammation is a novel therapeutic target to mitigate this risk. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of colchicine comb...

Stand Age, Standard Retention Density and Site Conditions as Drivers of Shoot Biomass Accumulation in Mediterranean Oak Coppices

ABSTRACT Mediterranean oak coppices represent an important fuelwood resource in Central Italy, but management decisions are often constrained by limited quantitative evidence on the relative importance of stand development, standard retention, site conditions, and climate in driv...

Effects of ursodeoxycholic acid on blood glucose and related metabolic indexes in type 2 diabetes rats

Bile acids (BAs) play critical roles in regulating glucose, lipid and energy metabolism, but its effects on type 2 diabetes is not very clear, we studied the effects of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) intervention on blood glucose and related metabolic indexes in type 2 diabetes rats...

Diurnal parental care in the sexually dichromatic Chestnut-backed Sparrow-Lark Eremopterix leucotis (Alaudidae)

Parental investment strategies are often predicted by sexual dimorphism, with dichromatic species expected to exhibit skewed parental roles due to sexual selection and extra-pair paternity. We investigated the division of diurnal labour (i.e. incubation, brooding, provisioning) i...

Agent-based real-time simulation of autonomous virtual soldiers engaging with moving targets

Virtual combat simulations provide a cost-effective platform for military training; however, their realism is often constrained by deterministic formulations of engagement outcomes against dynamic targets. This study presents a probabilistic attack model for intelligent virtual s...

HIV/AIDS is the most dangerous disease in the world and affects the functions of all human beings in public health, economics, society, political issues, and communities. Currently, 40.4 million people are living with HIV/AIDS, as the World Health Organization estimated in 2023....

Conformal Bootstrap Links Automorphic Spectra, Hyperbolic Geometry, and Gauge Group Detection — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Conformal bootstrap uses automorphic spectra and spectral geometry of hyperbolic manifolds to constrain CFT scaling dimensions, with gauge group detection via decoupling operators in d>2. | MATH: Automorphic forms on hyperbolic manifolds ↔ CFT correlation functions; scal...

NLCD: A method to discover nonlinear causal relations among genes

Distinguishing correlation from causation is a fundamental challenge in many scientific fields, including biology, especially when interventions like randomized controlled trials are infeasible and only observational data are available. Methods based on statistical tests of condi...

Waste‐Derived Crayfish‐Shell Biochar for Norfloxacin Removal: Mineral‐Driven Adsorption Mechanisms

ABSTRACT Crayfish–shell waste (CSW) is an abundant aquaculture by–product rich in biogenic minerals; however, the contribution of these inherited mineral phases to antibiotic adsorption remains poorly understood. Herein, pyrolysis–derived crayfish–shell biochar (CSB) was prepared...

From microbial dysbiosis to putative epigenetic locking: a hypothesis-driven framework for the pathogenesis and future therapeutic perspectives of gastric intestinal metaplasia

Intestinal metaplasia (IM) is a key precancerous lesion connecting chronic atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer in the Correa cascade, and its risk of progression has significant individual heterogeneity. A potential explanatory framework for this heterogeneity involves interact...

Exploring the Mediation of EFL Learners' Perceptions of Teacher Fairness on the Association Between Learning Climate and Self‐Efficacy

ABSTRACT Self‐efficacy refers to the learners' beliefs in their abilities to adjust their learning, which can lead to learners' educational success and motivation, and thus, is important within the learning procedure. The learning climate has a vital effect on the educational per...

Dietary Energy–Protein Balance Regulates Slaughter Traits, Meat Quality, Digestive Enzyme Activity, and Fecal Microbiota in Early-Weaned Gray-Feathered King Pigeon Squabs

Early-weaned squabs are sensitive to dietary energy–protein supply, but combined effects remain unclear. We tested metabolizable energy (ME; 11.9, 12.2, and 12.5 MJ/kg) and crude protein (CP; 18, 19, and 20%) in 216 15-day-old gray-feathered King pigeon (Columba livia domestica)...
