Purpose Masking, the suppression of autistic traits to meet neurotypical expectations, is widely reported among autistic women and linked to adverse mental health outcomes. However, less is known about how masking relates to identity development and internal experience. This stud...

Evidence on the fiscal consequences of population ageing rests largely on projections and regional panels. We examine how ageing relates to growth and the primary fiscal balance across sixty-nine economies from 1990 to 2024. Because cross-sectional dependence is pervasive and slo...

The Bile Acid–Diet–Microbiome Axis in Clostridioides difficile Infection
Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) remains a major cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea, with recurrence largely driven by disruption of the gut microbiota and impaired colonization resistance. Bile acids have emerged as key mediators in this process, as primary conjugat...

INTRODUCTION: Identifying and addressing the support needs of forensic mental health patients in daily life occupations is critical yet complex due to the health comorbidities and environmental restrictions impacting their participation. Occupational therapists support forensic p...

Background: Global maritime supply chains increasingly face overlapping disruptions, yet existing studies often analyse individual crises rather than comparing how stress regimes evolve across system states, channel-specific conditions, and recovery duration. Methods: This study...

DSLHash: Lightweight Hash Function Based on SVSC 4D Chaotic System and Dynamic Substitution Layers
Data integrity remains a critical requirement for secure communication in IoT environments. To address this challenge for resource-constrained IoT devices, lightweight cryptographic hash functions have been widely studied. However, static substitution layers in conventional hash...

Abstract Approximately one-third of people with diabetes have diabetic kidney disease (DKD), and DKD remains a leading cause of kidney failure in the United States. DKD is characterized by injury to the glomerular filtration barrier and renal tubulointerstitium, arising from comp...

Asymptotic behaviors for Volterra type McKean-Vlasov stochastic integral equations with small noise
This work is devoted to studying asymptotic behaviors for Volterra type McKean-Vlasov stochastic differential equations with small noise. By applying the weak convergence approach, we establish the large and moderate deviation principles. In addition, we obtain the central limit...

A systematic review of frameworks for evaluating social equity in the food rescue program
Purpose This study systematically reviews frameworks and evaluation approaches used to assess social equity in food rescue and redistribution initiatives. Design/methodology/approach A systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. Searches were performed across Pub...

Real-Time Leader-Follower UGV-UAV Cooperation: Experimental Validation and Control Analysis
Abstract This paper presents the experimental validation of a real-time leader–follower cooperative control architecture for a heterogeneous system composed of a differential-drive Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) and a quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). In the proposed framew...

Abstract Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has transformed cancer therapy, yet many tumors remain refractory to treatment due to diverse immune evasion mechanisms. To uncover novel drivers of ICB resistance, we performed an in vivo CRISPR-Cas9 screen in mice with increasing levels...

Torpor is a key survival strategy that many avian and mammalian lineages evolved in response to challenging environmental conditions. Whether the independent evolution of torpor in different lineages involved changes in the same genes remains poorly understood. Here, we performed...

A Deep Learning-Driven Binocular Vision Path Detection Approach for Orchard Robots
Autonomous driving relying on visual navigation plays a vital role in promoting automation within the jujube industry. Conventional visual navigation strategies fail to satisfy the demands of straddle-type jujube harvesters owing to their unique row-straddling configuration and c...
