Anxiety and mood disorders from childhood to adulthood in very preterm and term-born individuals
BACKGROUND: Very preterm (VP) birth has been associated with higher rates of anxiety and mood disorders, but the emergence and persistence from childhood to adulthood is unknown. This study examined prevalence rates and early risk factors of these disorders in VP and term-born in...

Due to the complex pathological mechanism and long-term effects of the course of traumatic brain injury (TBI), there is currently no specific treatment or medication available. Previous studies have found that taurine deoxycholic acid (TUDCA), a compound, can effectively alleviat...

Abstract Long-term storage can erode the value of Apiaceae fruits through volatilization and compositional drift of their essential oils (EOs). This study evaluated UV-C pre-treatment (25 min) and packaging type as practical approaches to preserve EO quality in fennel ( Foeniculu...

Rewriting the Script: The African Snakebite Institute
The African Snakebite Institute (ASI) was founded in 2012 by Johan Marais, an experienced and renowned South African herpetologist and naturalist. As the author of seminal publications such as ‘A Complete Guide to the Snakes of Southern Africa’ and ‘Snakes and Snakebite in Southe...

The heliocentric worldview ontologically considered in quantum mechanics
This treatise develops an ontologically consistent, cybernetic model of the physical processes in the universe, describing stars, planets, photons, vortices, states of matter, and black holes as expressions of the same systemic dynamics. At its core is the insight that processual...

Idiopathic tinnitus—subjective, audiogram-independent, without an identified medical etiology—remains without a satisfying explanatory account for a substantial subset of cases, and no directly comparable methodological precedent linking such presentations to documented interfere...

We present a decisive statistical analysis of gravitational wave events from the GWTC-3 catalog to test the predictions of the PPL space model against standard General Relativity (GR). While GR predicts a continuous inspiral-merger-ringdown waveform with a smooth amplitude peak,...

Edamame soybeans grow optimally in tropical and subtropical climates with relatively high temperatures and adequate rainfall, making them suitable for cultivation in Indonesia. This study aimed to evaluate the interaction between the type and application rate of sago waste biocha...

Cosmochrony: A Non-Injective Projection Theory of Emergent Physics
Cosmochrony is a pre-geometric relational framework that does not replace quantum mechanics or general relativity, but operates at a deeper structural level from which both emerge as effective descriptions in appropriate regimes. Its aim is to expose the common infra-physical fou...

Global inequitable distribution of seminal studies of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting
BACKGROUND: Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains one of the most quality of life limiting toxicities of cancer therapy. Decades of trials have produced robust antiemetic evidence, but their applicability to resource-limited settings where guideline-recommended...

Abstract Background Postoperative sleep disturbance (PSD) is common among surgical patients and adversely affects recovery. The benefits of perioperative esketamine on sleep remain incompletely defined. Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing ketamine or esketamine...

Governance of the relations between human activity and the wider natural and cosmic field operates under a scale relation that the governance of human affairs has generally been spared. The field within which the relations obtain substantially exceeds both the portion of it that...

Abstract Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a complicated autoimmune disease that often causes invasive inflammatory infiltration and serious articular destruction. The global prevalence of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) is estimated to be around 30% of the population. Several...

Three companion papers establish results about the governance of systems that exceed what any party can represent or reach, and a fourth constitutes the class of problems such systems present. This paper adds the survey of the systems themselves that the four leave to be made. It...

Abstract An efficient kinetic resolution of binaphthyl triflates is developed via Ni-catalyzed asymmetric C(sp2)–P cross-coupling to access substituted atropisomeric phosphines. Moreover, the phosphine framework showed superior reactivity and enantiocontrol in Pd-catalyzed asymme...

HEDII and LESS: Heuristic Error Drift and the Sociology of Low-Energy Stabilization
This Perspective proposes a systems sociology explanation for the persistence of durable social hierarchies — including racism, sexism, and other forms of categorical stratification — under conditions of material abundance. Building on ESC/HSC (Live→Belong→Gather→See), HBC (PDS→S...

Prior Use and the Distribution of Observational Capacity in State-Dependent Governance
A governing rule whose content depends on the dynamical state of the system it governs requires that the state be determined. Where the system exhibits a critical value above which ordinary conduct produces irreversible foreclosure, the determination that the system has approache...

Electron-Donor–AcceptorEnabled ElectrophilicC(sp2)-C(sp3) Cross-Coupling
Abstract The construction of C(sp2)-C(sp3) bonds is fundamental to pharmaceutical synthesis, yet metal-free approaches to electrophilic cross-coupling remain underdeveloped. Herein, we report a visible-light-driven, metal-free cross-coupling between heteroaryl nitriles and alkyl...

Abstract Background Flooding disrupts water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) systems, increasing the risk of waterborne diseases among young children. This study examined the relationships between flood-related WASH disruption, drinking water contamination and diarrhoea among under...
