Effects of low-intensity aerobic and resistance training on physical function, adiponectin, and metabolic health in oldest-old women: a randomized controlled trial

Abstract Background Few studies have examined exercise interventions in oldest-old women—that is, women aged 85 years and older—despite their high risk of experiencing functional decline and metabolic dysregulation. Thus, the present study investigated the effects of low-intensit...

Pro-regenerative effects of Cydonia oblonga seed mucilage on endothelial and fibroblast cell models

Abstract Objectives Cydonia oblonga seed mucilage is a traditional natural remedy with high water retention capacity and potential bioactivity. However, how it affects wound healing and tissue regeneration is still not fully understood. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of...

Characterization of tensile and torsional fatigue behaviors of additively manufactured super duplex stainless steel SAF 2507

Abstract Super duplex stainless steels (SDSSs) are well known for their good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance inherited from the dual-phase microstructure with equivalent proportion of ferrite and austenite. The development of additive manufacturing has given rise t...

Land degradation decision trigger points to minimise soil erosion in rangelands

Predicting when vegetation cover (the sum of photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic vegetation) drops below soil erosion protection thresholds is vital for reducing land degradation. This study developed a potential for land degradation (PoLD) framework to identify decision-trigge...

A_Finite_Relational_Lattice_Framework

Continuous field theories encounter ultraviolet divergences and metric singularities (r -> 0), necessitating ad-hoc renormalization counterterms and unphysical boundary cutoffs. Here, we present a finite relational lattice framework defined by an invariant minimum spatial separat...

Communicating safety: a corpus study of WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTE instructions in aviation maintenance manuals

Abstract Aircraft maintenance personnel worldwide rely on WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTE instructions to prevent injuries, equipment damage, and accidents. However, systematic linguistic analysis of these instruction types has received limited attention in applied linguistics researc...

Crystallizationfor Manufacturing in Microgravity;Are We There Yet?

Abstract Crystallization in microgravity has been extensively investigated because of its potential to enhance crystal quality compared to terrestrial conditions. While early efforts were primarily directed toward single-crystal growth for structural studies, increasing attention...

Verification-Conditioned Abstention: Withholding Unverifiable Claims in Labor-Market Decision Support

Selective prediction, learning to defer, and conformal methods all condition the decision to abstain on the model’s estimate of its own correctness. We define and deploy an alternative. In verification-conditioned abstention the selection function is a decidable predicate over an...

Asymmetric RBBP7 regulates the first cell fate decision of early mammalian embryos

Asymmetric transcription of noncoding RNA LincGET is currently recognized as the earliest event regulating the first cell fate decision in mammalian embryogenesis. However, whether key protein factors modulate this process remains elusive. Here, we identify RBBP7 as the earliest...

Polyethylene Terephthalate Waste-Derived Linker forMetal-Organic Framework-Based Cathode Catalyst in Microbial ElectrolysisCell for Hydrogen Production

Abstract The microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) enables green biohydrogen production from waste through bioelectrochemical conversion, with a cathode catalyst driving hydrogen recovery. However, conventional cathode catalysts, such as platinum, are cost-intensive owing to expensiv...

Fabrication of Multilayer Alternating Polymer-based Dielectric Composites with Superior Energy Storage Performance via Layer-by-layer Spraying Assembly

Abstract Polymer-based dielectric composites are pivotal for advanced pulsed power and power electronics, yet synergistically enhancing dielectric constant and breakdown strength remains a formidable challenge. Herein, we report a controllable layer-by-layer spray assembly strate...

Field coupling as an interpretative framework for peptide–membrane interactions

Abstract Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) interact with lipid membranes through multistep processes that may include interfacial adsorption, partial insertion, membrane deformation, pore formation, and transmembrane organization. Although these processes have been extensively invest...

Exploring associations among lignin biosynthesis gene expression, anatomy, and digestibility in Megathyrsus maximus cultivars

Context Megathyrsus maximus (Jacq.) B.K.Simon & S.W.L.Jacobs is a fast-growing perennial grass species used as forage for livestock production suitable for grazing and cut-and-carry systems, depending on management in tropical and subtropical regions. Aims This study evaluate...

SurfaceProton ReservoirsConstrain Alkalinity Exportfrom Enhanced Weathering

Abstract The addition of silicate and carbonate materials to soils (enhanced weathering) is a proposed carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strategy with potential agronomic co-benefits, especially for soil pH management. However, alkalinity from mineral dissolution interacts with the su...

Probable neurosyphilis-associated longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis with severe bladder dysfunction and radiologic resolution: a case report

Abstract Background Longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis (LETM) is often investigated as an autoimmune inflammatory myelopathy, but treatable infectious mimics should also be considered. Neurosyphilis-associated myelitis is uncommon and may resemble aquaporin-4 or myelin...

Establishing a single-cell RNA sequencing workflow using EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Background and Objectives: No unified consensus exists regarding standardized protocols for single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis of samples obtained via EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA). This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of applying scRNA-seq to E...

Energy-Neutral Exact-Local Cascade Control in a Three-Dimensional Spectral Flow Solver

This study introduces the EIDOS Energy-Neutral Exact-Local Cascade (EN-ELC), a numerical spectral-feedback operator designed to alter resolved interscale energy transfer without directly adding net instantaneous kinetic-energy power to the fluid as a whole. The method is implemen...

Ventral Column Spinal Cord Stimulation for Pain Management

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a form of neuromodulation that delivers electrical impulses to the spinal cord, altering pain signals to provide relief from chronic pain. Since its introduction in the 1960s, SCS has primarily targeted the dorsal columns of the spinal cord. While...

Determinacy Is Not Emergence: Clarifying Dynamical Indeterminism, Causal Emergence, and Probabilistic Futures

Three ideas are often discussed in neighboring vocabularies but answer different questions: whether a physical theory is dynamically deterministic, whether a system exhibits causal emergence across scales, and whether an observer should represent the future probabilistically. Thi...
