Abstract The clinical efficacy of fluorescence-guided surgery is often compromised by the poor photostability and biologically inert nature of conventional contrast agents such as Indocyanine Green (ICG). While nanocarriers can enhance dye stability, they often function primarily...

Statistics of Marginal Wave Functions as a Real-SpaceDiagnostic of Quantum Entanglement
Abstract We present a statistical framework for extracting spatially resolved entanglement directly from an ensemble of marginal (one-body) wave functions in time-dependent Quantum Monte Carlo (TDQMC). Treating the guide waves as a statistical mixture in Hilbert space, we show th...

Transient acute kidney injury following femoral fracture in mice
Aims Femoral shaft fractures are commonly associated with high-energy trauma, and affect individuals of all ages. Kidney dysfunction frequently complicates fracture healing, and trauma-related acute kidney injury (TRAKI) elevates the risk of adverse outcomes. The mechanisms of po...

Taguchi gray relational analysis for multi-objective optimization of carbon fiber reinforced PLA
Abstract The most widely used additive manufacturing method is FDM. This technique depends on printing parameters. Most studies optimize a single mechanical property of a part. However, parts are often subjected to multiple loadings. This study, which focuses on Carbon Fiber rein...

Abstract Faecal odours attract cockroaches to aggregations, where conspecific faeces provide nutrients and seed the gut microbiota. Because these odours arise from the gut and faecal microbial communities, which are shaped by coprophagy and diet, discrete aggregations within a he...

Beyond Capital and Labour: The Firm as a Flow Architecture for Organizational Value Creation
Why do firms with similar capital, labour, technologies, and market access produce radically different outcomes? This conceptual paper develops a dynamical architecture of organizational value creation. It treats the firm as a cross-temporal flow architecture through which resour...

Abstract Cancer type classification is challenging due to tumor heterogeneity and undefined tissue of origin (TOO), particularly in cancers of unknown primary (CUP) and multiple primary cancers (MPC). Accurate TOO identification is critical for guiding treatment and prognosis. We...

Abstract Aim To map and synthesize the available scientific evidence on the relationship between chronic low back pain and sleep-related outcomes among agro-industrial and industrial workers exposed to high physical demands. Subject and methods A scoping review was conducted foll...

Reimagining land system science in seascapes
Abstract Context Terrestrial concepts often guide the science and management of marine systems, as exhibited by the influence of landscape ecology on seascape ecology. However, the theoretical assumptions that inform these concepts have not been sufficiently interrogated within t...

Version 6 of the Börekci Solar Antimatter Collector is an audit-and-rebuild of version 5. Three physics errors in v5 are identified and repaired. (i) The collection area was taken as the area of a circle whose radius is the magnetic deflection radius. This violates Liouville's th...

Abstract The carbon isotopic compositions (δ 13 C and Δ 14 C) of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) in water samples are influenced by various storage conditions, but the extent and mechanisms of these changes remain unclear. In this study, we systematically evaluated the effects o...

Each Tree Corrects the Last: What Gradient Boosting Actually Learns
Gradient boosting is commonly described as a sequence of weak trees in which each new learner corrects errors left by the current ensemble. This description is computationally accurate but scientifically incomplete. Every correction is conditioned on a declared loss function, an...

Post-treatment transitions after active cancer care often lack clear ownership, timelines and closure rules, shifting coordination work onto survivors and staff. We aimed to identify how these failures arise and to co-design a handover standard for post-treatment survivorship car...

Observational Phase-Coherent Residual Modulation in Type Ia Supernova Hubble Diagrams
We analyze a reported nonlinear-phase modulation in Type Ia supernovaHubble-diagram residuals, emphasizing visualization, cross-compilation phasecoherence, look-elsewhere effects, waveform choice, endpoint artifacts, andpassband systematics. In a reconstructed 7687-entry diagnost...

Abstract Introduction Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health concern, often diagnosed late, particularly in India. Hemodialysis (HD), the most common treatment, impacts quality of life and can lead to impaired respiratory functions. Spirometry parameters (FVC, FEV₁) asse...

Salt Crystallization-InducingStrong and Tough Hydrogels
Abstract Research on salt-mediated hydrogel structure and property modulation often neglects the potential effects of salt crystallization. Here, we leverage the crystallization of sodium phytate during poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogel dehydration to induce the formation of den...

Abstract To reveal the coupled evolution of coal damage–permeability–mechanical response during alternating N2/CO2 injection (ANI), a thermo-hydro-mechanical-damage (THMD) fully coupled model incorporating three distinct damage mechanisms (stress-induced, temperature-induced, and...

Increasing BiocharYield in Pyrolysis by Adding Ash
Abstract Wood ash additives increase biochar yield in pyrolysis via catalysis by alkali and alkaline earth metals. However, it remains unclear how ash and biomass properties govern the magnitude of this catalytic effect. Here, we pyrolyzed pelleted and ash-amended woody and grami...

Global South in transition: Geopolitical dynamics and development cooperation
Abstract This special issue explores the development trajectories of the Global South and how various regions of the Global South are navigating the increasingly complex geopolitical dynamics. Covering Africa, Asia, and Latin America, the collection examines both global and regio...

Emphysematous Pyelonephritis Masquerading as Diabetic Ketoacidosis: A Case Report
Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) is a rare, fulminant, gas-forming necrotising infection of the renal parenchyma and surrounding tissue that occurs almost exclusively in patients with diabetes mellitus and carries substantial morbidity and mortality if not recognised promptly....
