Methanol — flexible energy and carbon vector for the achievement of the dual goals of decarbonization & carbon circularity

In a world with geopolitical conflicts and uncertainties, numerous import-dependent nations are facing a dilemma in achieving a parallel carbon transition from (1) fossils to renewables, (2) a linear to a circular carbon economy, and (3) reliance on imported to domestic carbon re...

Rearticulating Authority: Hybridity, Power, and the U-Thong Nai Assembly Hall in Thai Statecraft

This paper investigates the ideological function of hybridity in modern Thai architecture through a postcolonial lens, focusing on the U-Thong Nai Assembly Hall, completed in 1974 and serving as Thailand’s National Assembly for forty-four years, as a case study. As one of the cou...

Physical and lifestyle predictors of vascular function in postmenopausal East Asian women: the women’s vascular health project

The cardiovascular disease (CVD) burden is especially pronounced in women after menopause accounting for more deaths worldwide than any other disease. The current research examined physical and lifestyle contributors to vascular health in postmenopausal East Asian women. Approxim...

Endothelial metabolism in CDH: mitochondrial dysfunction as a new piece of the puzzle

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) remains one of the most challenging developmental lung diseases in neonatal medicine. Despite major advances in prenatal risk stratification, fetal intervention, neonatal intensive care, and extracorporeal support, pulmonary hypoplasia and pu...

Neem mediated silver nanoparticles for reactive orange dye adsorption with statistical optimization and artificial neural network modeling

The uncontrolled discharge of synthetic dyes into aquatic systems poses serious environmental and health hazards to humans and animals. Therefore, green, reusable, and effective adsorbents must be developed for sustainable treatment. This study investigated biosynthesized AgNPs a...

Coordinated planning of hydrogen refuelling stations and distribution networks considering two-phase hydrogen storage and carbon emission flow

Hydrogen refuelling stations (HRSs) are essential infrastructure for hydrogen-powered transportation. However, their planning faces coupled challenges arising from high-pressure hydrogen storage risks and the indirect carbon emissions caused by grid-connected electrolysis. To thi...

Paired cerebrospinal fluid metabolomic changes across repeated anodal transcranial direct current stimulation in Parkinson’s disease: an exploratory within-subject study

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been investigated as an adjunctive intervention for Parkinson’s disease (PD), but its biochemical correlates in the human central nervous system remain poorly characterized. We examined participant-level cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)...

Mo2C-engineered coconut fiber-derived porous carbon with synergistic adsorption-catalysis interface for lithium-sulfur batteries

To enhance sulfur redox kinetics and cycling durability in Li−S batteries, a Mo 2 C-anchored alkali-activated coconut fiber carbon framework (Mo 2 C/A-CFC) was constructed as an advanced sulfur host. The three-dimensional porous network provides plentiful accessible surface sites...

Applying asset-based community development in a marginalized urban community among the Negede Woyto community in Ethiopia

Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) emphasizes community strengths as the foundation for sustainable development. This study documents the application of ABCD in the historically marginalized Negede Woyto community in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia. Using a qualitative, participatory a...

From threat to reconfiguration: How content creators reshape occupational identity in AI-driven creative practices

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is disrupting creative work and challenging occupational identities, yet limited research has examined how creators experience and respond to these changes. Drawing on Albert Ellis’s ABC model, this study investigates relationships among...

Interface-aware adaptive layer-wise physics-informed neural networks for multilayer large-strain consolidation: a benchmark of architectures, training strategies, and trade-offs

Multilayer large-strain consolidation in stratified soils involves nonlinear pore-pressure dissipation, evolving deformation, and material discontinuities, which pose significant challenges for physics-informed neural networks (PINNs). This study develops a layer-wise adaptive PI...

Solid-state NMR insight into cation-modulated network structure and chemical durability of phosphate nuclear waste glasses

Phosphate glasses are extensively explored for nuclear waste vitrification. However, a full, systematic understanding of the mechanisms controlling their chemical durability is still lacking. Based on the similar ionic radii and matching valence states of Zn 2+ /Ga 3+ and Fe 2+ /...

Trends in greenhouse gas emissions from China’s municipal solid waste sector at urban and county levels: key drivers and mitigation strategies

Significant changes have occurred in China’s municipal solid waste (MSW) management methods over the last two decades, yet comprehensive assessments of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission patterns and their driving factors remain limited. In this study, GHG emissions from the urban and...

Intraglandular treatment with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells in patients with xerostomia due to Sjögren’s disease—a study protocol for aphase 1, triple-blinded, randomized, clinical trial

Xerostomia (the subjective feeling of dry mouth) is a prominent symptom in Sjögren’s disease and often related to hyposalivation. Xerostomia and hyposalivation negatively affect the oral health and have a significant negative impact on general health and overall quality of life....

Is it (socially) contagious? Capturing spatial-temporal trends of pro-environmental gardening using hazard models

Planting native gardens on verges, a form of underutilised public land, can provide biodiversity-enhancing and water-saving benefits that help achieve urban environmental goals. As a result, many governments in Australia offer support programs to encourage the adoption of native...

Role of acidic and alkaline cleaning solutions on ceria removal and brush-mediated cross-contamination during post-STI CMP cleaning

Ceria-based slurries used for shallow trench isolation (STI) chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) leave residual particles that must be effectively removed during post-CMP cleaning to prevent wafer defects and cross-contamination. Although polyvinyl acetal (PVAc) brush scrubbi...

Changes in functional fitness among community-dwelling older adults participating in 12-week and 24-week community-based multicomponent exercise programs: a dynamic cohort study

Multicomponent exercise is widely recommended to support functional fitness in older adults, but evidence remains heterogeneous regarding the contribution of intervention duration, particularly in real-world community-based settings. This study examined associations between obser...

Barriers and facilitators to home-based osteoporosis self-management among older lung transplant recipients: a qualitative study

Osteoporosis is common after lung transplantation and is a particular concern in older recipients. It is associated with increased risks of fracture, frailty, disability, and hospital readmission and may compromise functional recovery. After discharge, recipients need to sustain...

Alveolar bone and maxillary canine root changes after micro-osteoperforation-assisted retraction: a secondary analysis of a split-mouth randomized controlled trial

Micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) may increase bone remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement, but their effects on the maxillary canine root and alveolar bone remain unclear. This study compared CBCT changes between MOP-assisted and conventional canine retraction. This was a sec...
