Traces of Criminal Records: Digital Reputation and Information Concealment Policy
ABSTRACT In the United States, a robust data ecosystem aggregates and shares public records about people that may ultimately appear in Internet search results for a person's name. These records can include stigmatizing information and operate outside public policy efforts to conc...

Transcriptional biomarkers of microplastic exposure in fish: a tissue-resolved scoping review
Microplastic exposure in fish has been increasingly assessed at the transcriptional level, yet findings remain dispersed across species, polymers, exposure routes, and tissues, limiting the identification of robust and transferable biomarkers. This scoping review examines which t...

Background/Objectives: Despite the excellent long-term outcomes of total knee arthroplasty (TKA), up to 10% of patients remain dissatisfied. Robotic-assisted TKA enables individualized alignment strategies, such as functional alignment (FA). Proper alignment and soft tissue balan...

ABSTRACT Ammonium perchlorate (AP), the pivotal oxidizer in composite solid propellants, is often constrained due to its high decomposition temperature and sluggish heat release. Here, we proposed a structural co‐assembly strategy which synergistically assembles energetic moietie...

Toward scalable generative AI: efficient language model distillation via zero-shot rationales
Abstract This paper investigates an efficient approach for distilling Large Language Models (LLMs) into smaller, application-specific models using zero-shot Chain of Thought (CoT) rationale generation and Optimization by Prompting (OPRO). To address the challenges of deploying co...

Sex differences in dementia with Lewy bodies: a systematic review
Abstract Sex differences are increasingly recognized across neurodegenerative disorders, including Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB). Despite ongoing refinement of diagnostic criteria, DLB remains frequently misdiagnosed—particularly among females—reflecting gaps in our understandi...

Abstract Accurate greenhouse gas inventories require region-specific emission factors (EFs). Current nitrous oxide (N 2 O) inventories often rely on IPCC Tier 1 defaults, which may not accurately represent subtropical grazing systems where field-based data remain scarce. This stu...
