The domestic violence myth acceptance scale in Brazil: cross-cultural adaptation and initial construct-validity evidence

Domestic violence against women constitutes a structural public health problem. The original scale measures the endorsement of these beliefs but requires adaptation and psychometric validation for Brazilian Portuguese individuals. The aim of this study was to culturally adapt and...

Analysis of institutional governance for the development of climate-smart agriculture in Sistan and Baluchestan Province, Iran

The present study aimed to analyze the role of institutional governance in developing climate-smart agriculture (CSA) in Sistan and Baluchestan Province, Iran. Given the intensification of challenges caused by climate change and weaknesses in institutional coordination, the succe...

Diapausing adult female mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in overwintering sites in Estonia in 2023–2024: Species composition and variation

In temperate regions, several mosquito species overwinter as diapausing females in sheltered habitats, enabling them to serve as early-season vectors of mosquito-borne pathogens. While overwintering species compositions have been documented in several parts of Europe, no comprehe...

Objective To describe the epidemiology, clinical features, microbiology and outcomes of paediatric Streptococcus pneumoniae haemolytic uraemic syndrome (SpHUS) in Aotearoa New Zealand across changing pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) eras. Design Retrospective case series. Set...

Efficient latent-vision enabled generative data augmented pipeline for medical image analysis with hybrid deep learning approach

Medical image analysis is an important process involved in diagnosing diseases, but a lack of data, class imbalance, and poor interpretability of deep learning models hamper it. In this study, these problems are overcome by proposing a hybrid generative data-augmented method for...

Design of a load-responsive mechanical pressure limiter for overload protection in hydraulic actuators

To improve the overload protection performance of hydraulic actuators under dynamic load variations, a load-responsive mechanical pressure-limiting device is proposed with a wheel loader as the application background. The device integrates a pressure-sensitive element, a pressure...

Veřejní notáři na meziválečné Podkarpatské Rusi

As in many other areas of the administration of Subcarpathian Ruthenia, in the area of justice, a number of temporary measures persisted, which proved to be long-term, but mainly functional, even if they did not fully satisfy the call for the fulfillment of autonomous status. In...

The domain-specific bias in creativity evaluation: human evaluators favor human-created art, but prefer AI outputs for divergent thinking

Abstract How do humans perceive and evaluate creativity when it is attributed to artificial intelligence (AI)? This research examined how labeling a source as “AI” versus “human” systematically biases creativity evaluations across different domains. In experiment 1 (painting and...

Data and code for: Rail asymmetry as an input offset: an exact duty-cycle modulation law and two-point physical calibration for microcontroller-based sensing

Bench sweep of a non-inverting duty-cycle modulator, complete on-board logs of an ESP32-S3 microcontroller (temperature and voltmeter applications), fixed-input noise-floor sessions for two edge-capture backends on two days, two on-board two-point calibration sessions, three onli...

The Firstborn Who Never Stood in His Place: Reuben’s Self-Undermining Leadership in the Jacob Family Narrative (Gen 29–50)

Reuben is the least studied of the displaced firstborn sons of Genesis whose material can sustain a reading of character, and his scenes have been read piecemeal. This article reads every scene in which he acts (30:14a; 35:22a; 37:21–22, 29–30; 42:22; 42:37), with the verdict of...

Gene-specific reclassification patterns of variants in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Abstract Genetic variant interpretation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) evolves as population reference datasets expand, gene–disease validity assessments examine new candidate genes and additional functional and segregation evidence accumulates. Periodic re-interpretation i...

Quantile Delta Mapping Downscaling of CMIP6 Daily Precipitation Under SSP1-2.6 to SSP5-8.5: Model Structure Dominates Projection Uncertainty at a Tropical High-Altitude Station

Daily precipitation projections for tropical high-altitude stations are critical for water resource management and flood risk assessment yet remain limited in data-scarce mountain environments. This study applies a chronology-preserving quantile delta mapping framework to the sam...

Cavitation pressure and bubble nucleation in liquid CO2: Improved classical nucleation theory with effects of line tension

A model for the gas nucleation pressure below the vapour pressure is crucial for predicting cavitation in nozzles and valves and for flashing inception in pipelines. Classical heterogeneous nucleation theory (CNT) predicts nucleation rates for C O 2 that are orders of magnitude t...

Probability as Translation, Not a Property of Nature: The Born Rule and the Deterministic Core of the Schrödinger Equation

This paper relocates the Schrödinger equation, the Born probability rule, and the definiteness of experience from a single undifferentiated account into two layers: a deterministic structural layer (Tier-2) and a translation layer (Tier-3), the layer of commutative, analytic, cla...

Beyond psychology and environment explanations: a linguistic microfoundation approach to entrepreneurs’ anxiety

We offer a novel theoretical account of why entrepreneurs experience anxiety and how entrepreneurs cope with anxiety. We integrate insights from linguistic theories into entrepreneurship literature to propose that entrepreneurs’ linguistic architecture—particularly the vocabulary...

Mechanical and Mineralogical Properties of Concrete Incorporating Low-Lime Calcium Silicate Cement Under Accelerated Carbonation Curing

Low-lime calcium silicate cement (CSC) offers the potential to reduce CO2 emissions during cement production and sequester CO2 through carbonation curing. However, the relationship between CSC replacement, strength development, and CO2 uptake requires clarification at the concret...
