Hybrid chemical and physical activation techniques for engineering hierarchical pore structures in activated carbon for enhanced adsorption performance

<title>Abstract</title> This study explores the synergistic impact of hybrid chemical activation (CA) and physical activation (PA) on creating hierarchical pore structures in activated carbons (ACs) derived from various biomass precursors, aiming to improve adsorption performance...

Hypertensive posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome in Lesch–Nyhan disease: possible contribution of chronic hyperuricemia and renin activation – a case report

<title>Abstract</title> Background Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is characterized by seizures, altered consciousness, and vasogenic edema predominantly affecting the parieto-occipital regions. Although acute hypertension is a major precipitating factor, impa...

An ex vivo gut mucosal explant assay to compare HIV tissue susceptibility shows increased HIV susceptibility with methamphetamine exposure

Background: mucosal explant models for HIV assess viral replication but do not fully capture the ability of tissue to support productive infection and transfer to target cells, an important indicator of tissue susceptibility. Additional tools to investigate relative mucosal susce...

Proper Orthogonal Decomposition-based Model-Order Reduction for Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics Simulation—Mass-Spring-Damper System

Model Order Reduction (MOR) based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) and Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) has proven effective in various applications. Most MOR methods utilizing POD are implemented within a pure Eulerian framework, while significantly less attention has...

Phenotypic characteristics associated with preterm births in the Indian population

ABSTRACT Background Preterm birth (PTB), defined as the birth of infants before 37 weeks of gestation, poses significant health risks, including increased mortality and long-term disabilities. India stands as a major contributor to global PTB-related mortality, primarily due to i...

Sex-based differences in glycaemic variability and clinical outcomes among older inpatients with type 2 diabetes: insights from the GLIMPACT study

<title>Abstract</title> Methods A retrospective study of patients with type 2 diabetes aged 65 or older, admitted to the Geriatrics Unit of Padua University Hospital between January 2018 and December 2020. We recorded sociodemographic data, blood tests, multidimensional geriatric...

The history of enzyme evolution embedded in metabolism.

Whereas phylogenetic reconstructions are a primary record of protein evolution, it is unknown whether the deep history of enzymes is encoded at higher levels of biological organization. Here, we demonstrate that the emergence and reuse history of enzymatic folds is embedded withi...

Therapeutic remodeling of the tuberculosis granuloma with 1-methyl-D-tryptophan enhances CD8+ T cell-macrophage interactions.

T cell infiltration and reduces T cell activation and proliferation; and iii) therapeutic strategies, including D-1MT, that improve intragranulomatous killing hold strong translational potential.

Engineering and land use intensified climate-driven Yangtze River flood hazards since the Little Ice Age.

Understanding the interplay between climate variability and human activities is essential for assessing long-term river flood hazards. Yet, the relative contributions of natural and anthropogenic drivers to flood magnitude remain poorly constrained due to limited multicentury rec...

Myo Min Aung Unified Theory (MUT) v8.49.1 — Complete Master Archive: v7.x Source Through v8.49.1 (Including Vandedonk Audit Resolution, Exact PPN Resummation, and Planck plik-lite Likelihood Evaluation) — Fully Merged, Chronologically Ordered Edition

This deposit is the complete, unabridged, single-file master archive of the entire Myo Min Aung Unified Theory (MUT) research programme — the full framework, not an audit-response excerpt — merging all source material from the original v7.0 concept through the v8.49.1 post-audit...

A Primer on the Theory of Data

A table is a container. Rows and columns are an arrangement within that container.SQL is a language for manipulating the arrangement. Numbers and strings are rep-resentations used to store values. All are useful, but none tells us what makes a dataobject exist, what gives it mean...

Erdős–Graham Problem #411 – A Construction of Six Solution Families for the r=2 Case

We construct and verify six infinite families of solutions to the r=2 case of the Erdős–Graham iteration problem (Problem #411). Steinerberger [1] reduced the r=2 case to the equation φ(n) + φ(n+φ(n)) = n and proved that any solution must fall into one of two branches: either the...

The Remaining Riemann-Hypothesis Tail: From Prime-Power Checkpoints to Smoothed von Mangoldt Bounds

For Suzuki's Riemann-zeta screw function g_zeta, the associated real function Psi = -g_zeta satisfies RH if and only if Psi(t) >= 0 for every real t. A prime-power checkpoint theorem reduces the positive half-line to one constrained minimum between consecutive prime powers, and d...

Universal Criticality and Finite-Size Scaling in Arithmetic Tensor Networks: Empirical Validation of the GUE Limit and the ν ≈ 2/3 Topological Phase

This upload contains the pre-print manuscript and supporting figures for the paper: "Universal Criticality and Finite-Size Scaling in Arithmetic Tensor Networks: Empirical Validation of the GUE Limit and the $\nu \approx 2/3$ Topological Phase" (PROMETEO-PRIME Part II). Abstract:...

KSC: Knowledge, Structure, and Constraint — A Functional Framework for Human–AI Differences and Collaboration

Current AI systems can draw on broad bodies of knowledge and rapidly generate complex structures, yet their capabilities still vary substantially across tasks. Some problems are constrained mainly by the information available; some require new problem representations, relationshi...

RNA-seq of 18 samples of 2 luffa inbred lines

RNA-seq raw data of Luffa inbred lines S1174 and P93075 were generated via 150 bp paired-end sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq 4000 platform.

The Evolutionary Paradox of Human Intelligence ー Why Intelligence Does Not Eliminate War

The dynamics described here parallel cultural narratives such as the Tower of Babel.In that story, a collectively constructed symbolic structure expands until it exceeds the constraints of the external world,after which the shared referential network collapses and language fragme...

Resolution of the Yang-Mills Millennium Problem: The Solution via Full General Relativity and its Surrounding Equation

We demonstrate that algebraically integrating General Relativity into quantum field theory via the Surrounding Matter framework provides a rigorous resolution to the Yang-Mills mass gap problem. Within this framework, the local energy-momentum structure is governed by the multi-s...
