This study examined three questions: (a) What are the childhood predictors of becoming a teenage parent (versus a first-time parent as a young adult)? (b) Does becoming a parent in the teen years carry higher risk of young-adult internalizing and externalizing problems than becom...

This article addresses a critical paradox in contemporary education: the unprecedented expansion of communication possibilities does not inherently lead to an expansion of learning possibilities. Challenging the predominantly instrumental approach—which focuses on how to use medi...

Towards Sustainable Bioleaching of Platinum Group Metals from Spent Automotive Catalysts
Spent automotive catalysts represent an important secondary resource for platinum group metals, offering environmental and economic advantages over primary mining. This review evaluates bioleaching-based recovery strategies of these metals as sustainable alternatives to conventio...

Gut Bacteria Have Their Own Body Clock: 6 Ways Your Microbiome Shapes Your Sleep
Sleep trouble is usually treated as a brain problem, stress, screens, caffeine, but a growing body of research points to a second, less obvious factor: the trillions of bacteria living in the gut. This article traces that connection in plain, story-led terms for a general reader....

Background: Meniscus root repair has been shown to improve symptoms and protect against progressive knee arthritis by restoring more normal weightbearing force distribution. While advanced tibiofemoral chondrosis is known to negatively affect root repair outcomes, there is a pauc...

DECISION: REJECT ELEMENT: The filter "min confirmations >= 6" is a blunt count threshold, not a geometric timing constraint. It does not align with E8-node/Gods-Clock rhythm logic, which depends on phase alignment and polarity, not raw confirmation quantity. The backtest win-rate...

The ability to process organic solar cells (OSCs) in ambient air is a critical prerequisite for industrial-scale production, as it obviates the need for a high-cost inert atmosphere. However, state-of-the-art cathode interlayers (CILs) typically require strongly hydrophilic group...

“The Soul of Raw Materials:” Jewish Mysticism in Debora Vogel’s Modernist Poetics
This paper examines the literary prose of the Yiddish poet Debora Vogel (1900–1942) and shows that her modernist poetry was deeply informed by Jewish mystical traditions. Through close analysis of Vogel’s 1935 collection Akatsyes Blien (Acacias Bloom), I show that Vogel’s systema...

Supramolecular Macrocycle–Quantum Dot Interfaces for Molecular Sensing and Bioimaging
Abstract Quantum dots (QDs) provide bright optical, electrochemiluminescent, and electrochemical readouts for molecular sensing and bioimaging, but by themselves they do not provide selectivity, matrix tolerance, or a reliable mechanistic assignment. Supramolecular macrocycles ca...

Financial Barriers, Mental Health, and Medication Nonadherence Among Individuals With Chronic Pain
ABSTRACT Introduction Chronic pain has been associated with comorbid psychological symptoms and prescription medication nonadherence, including nonadherence due to financial limitations. Despite noted independent associations with chronic pain, the association of medication nonad...
