Fine-scale structural diversification among closely related Legionella pneumophila isolates from a bath-associated environmental reservoir

ABSTRACT Legionella pneumophila populations within environmental reservoirs can exhibit genomic diversity, complicating source attribution during outbreak investigations. Core genome single-nucleotide variant (cgSNV)-based approaches are widely used for identifying closely relate...

Effects of eight weeks of respiratory muscle training combined with high-intensity interval training on respiratory muscle strength, intermittent running performance, and agility in soccer players

This study examined whether adding respiratory muscle training (RMT) to high-intensity interval training (HIIT) provides additional benefits for respiratory muscle strength, intermittent running performance, and agility in male soccer players. Twenty-six players were randomly all...

The 15-min city vs. walkability indices: which is more strongly associated with health outcomes at the neighborhood scale?

In recent years both practitioners and scholars have paid increasing attention to the ways in which neighborhood design and the built environment influence public health. The concept of the 15- or x-minute city has gained momentum as a means of promoting transportation and land u...

LRA-YOLOv11n: An Improved YOLOv11n Model for Field Detection of Mango Malformation Disease

Early detection and timely management of mango malformation disease (MMD) are essential for stabilizing yield and improving orchard management efficiency. However, existing mango disease-recognition studies have mainly focused on leaf diseases, fruit defects, or image-level class...

A Wearable Multimodal Assistive Interface for Virtual Cursor Control in Stroke Survivors with Upper-Limb Impairment

Stroke survivors with upper-limb impairments often have difficulty using conventional computer interfaces, which limits their ability to perform daily computer-related activities independently. This study developed a wearable multimodal assistive interface that enables computer i...

Design and Experimental Validation of a Centrally Controlled Educational Assembly Mini-Line Using the WLKATA Mirobot

This paper presents the design, implementation, and experimental validation of an educational robotic assembly mini-line based on the WLKATA Mirobot platform. The system was developed as a laboratory-scale demonstrator for centralized coordination of multiple robotic stations and...

The Answerability Calculus

Abstract The Answerability Calculus develops a general mathematical theory of Answerability as a constituted, typed relation and establishes laws governing its lawful transformation, resource representation, repair, composition, activation, obstruction and conservation. Its gover...

From the "Non-Virtuous City" to the "Inner Virtuous City": An Educational Reinterpretation of the Concept of al-Mutawaḥḥid in Ibn Bājja's Thought

How a virtuous human being can live in a society that does not conform to desirable rational and ethical standards is an important issue in the philosophy of ethics and politics within the Islamic philosophical tradition. This issue takes a distinctive form in the thought of Ibn...

Unraveling the impacts of reservoir regulation and sand mining on the Ravi River, India

Dryland Rivers are vital for the earth’s hydrological balance, supporting freshwater supply, food production, and diverse habitats. This study focuses on the downstream impacts of the Ranjit Sagar reservoir on the Ravi River, operational since 2001. We employed modeled discharge...

Cytogenetic diversity in maize landraces shaped by long-term cultivation and ecogeographic adaptation

This study characterizes the cytogenetic diversity of maize landraces from Northern Argentina, a region comprising Northwestern Argentina (NWA) and Northeastern Argentina (NEA). New data from four NWA landraces were analysed using DAPI banding, fluorescence in situ hybridization...

Change Adaptation Resilience Evaluation Questionnaire for Industry 5.0 Among Workers in High-Tech Manufacturing Companies: Questionnaire Development and Pilot Evaluation Study

Abstract Background Despite increasing recognition of human factors in technologically advanced manufacturing, psychological resilience remains an underexplored dimension. Existing studies often rely on generic instruments that fail to capture the specific adaptive challenges fac...

Day-time split study for management of obstructive sleep apnoea: Proof of concept study

Objective: Waiting time for diagnosis and treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is increasing due to a lack of adequate amount of sleep labs. This study was done to find out the feasibility of daytime split Polysomnography (PSG) in patients with excessive daytime sleepiness...

A self-assembled peptide forms α-helical nanopores for ultrasensitive biomarker profiling

α-Helical nanopores are attractive molecular sensors, yet their rational design and assembly remain challenging. Here we show that the single peptide pPorA, derived from porin PorACj, self-assembles into flexible α-helical nanopores, inserts in lipid membranes and exists in disti...

C→∞C — Cosmic to Infinity Code: Canonical Astronomical Identifier Mapping — Technical Note v1.0

C→∞C — Cosmic to Infinity Code is a minimal relational syntax for representing an astronomical entity through its wider contextual placement and its relevant gravitational-dynamical host structure. Core expression: CC(E,t) := Ctx(E,t) / Gr(E,t) E — represented astronomical entity...

Stochastic Optimization of PV Non-Tripping Capacity in Distribution Networks Considering Uncertainties and Faults

Against the backdrop of the “dual-carbon” goals, the penetration of distributed photovoltaics (PV) in distribution networks continues to increase. Under the combined effects of stochastic PV generation and load variability, assessing PV hosting capacity in distribution networks u...
