Cờ Trận (Tactical Formation): Documenting and Analysing a Vietnamese Folk Board Game for 2–4 Players

Many Vietnamese folk board games survive only by word of mouth and are easily forgotten. Cờ Trận is one such game. It was played in Đồng Bùa hamlet, Tam Quan commune, Tam Đảo district, Vĩnh Phúc province, using whatever could be picked up by the roadside as pieces: stones, pebble...

Beyond Forecast Accuracy: A Responsible AI Framework for Provenance-Aware Fine Jewelry Retail Planning

Fine jewelry retailers must reconcile uncertain demand, high-value inventory, complex material histories, and expectations of responsible sourcing. This article develops a responsible artificial intelligence framework that connects demand forecasting, provenance evidence, and gov...

Cross-Omics correlation and genomic pattern recognition for accurate tumor detection in oncological surgery decision-making

Abstract A genomic sequence analysis is necessary to determine the cancer-specific genomic patterns for oncological surgery decision-making. However, the existing works overlooked the cross-omics interaction regarding Genomic Pattern Recognition (GPR). Therefore, Chebyshev-Excoff...

Piezo1-centered mechanotransduction in knee osteoarthritis: multicompartment mechano-inflammatory networks and therapeutic opportunities

Abstract Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is increasingly recognized as a whole-joint mechano-inflammatory disorder in which abnormal loading, tissue remodeling, and inflammatory sensitization reinforce one another. Piezo1 is a context-dependent mechanotransduction hub that links mechan...

Ultrafast joule heating conversion of rice husk into C/SiOx composite anodes for sustainable lithium-ion batteries: Electrochemical performance and life cycle assessment

Transforming agricultural waste into functional lithium-ion battery (LIB) anodes offers a sustainable pathway toward low-carbon energy storage and circular resource utilization. In this work, rice husk (RH) was converted into carbon/silicon oxide (C/SiO x ) composite anodes using...

An edge-effect-aware framework for uncertainty-resolved crop mapping and planting-structure monitoring in arid irrigation landscapes

Accurate crop mapping is critical for agricultural water management in the Yellow River Basin under strict water constraints. To address mixed-pixel and noise issues in fragmented landscapes like the Yichang Irrigation Area, this study developed an edge-effect-aware framework. Us...

Search Results Yield No New Proofs or Generalizations of Fermat's Last Theorem — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: The search results are dominated by expository videos and general references on Fermat's Last Theorem (FLT) — no new mathematical result, no polynomial analogue proof, and no totally real fields generalization is presented. The only concrete mathematical content is the e...

Abundant Reaction Mechanisms for the α-Nucleophile-Involved Reaction of HOO– + CH3Br

Abstract The reaction of the peroxide ion with CH3Br was investigated by direct dynamics simulation. A variety of reaction mechanisms, i.e., front-side complex, proton exchange, and H-migration mechanisms, were found, and the nature of these mechanisms was discussed in detail, wh...

Translating Service-Learning Standards Into Practice: A Multiple-Case Study of Undergraduate Courses

Background Service-learning is widely used in higher education, yet less is known about how principles of high-quality service-learning are interpreted and operationalized across undergraduate courses. Purpose This qualitative multiple-case study examined how undergraduate instru...

Ultra-Sensitive Battery-Free Wireless Humidity Sensor for Real-Time Diaper Monitoring

Abstract Wearable healthcare systems require humidity sensors that integrate exceptional sensitivity with robust environmental stability and biocompatible materials. However, most reported sensors exhibit compromised response kinetics at high sensitivity. Here, we report a high-p...

The DSW School Project: Pupils experience dry-stone masonry during Wachau excursions, Austria

Pupils from the UNESCO schools in Krems and Melk spend a morning at the historic Red Gate above Spitz, learning the basic moves of dry-stone masonry from the trainers of the Austrian dry-stone wall school. The excursion is organised by the Wachau World Heritage Communities Associ...

Transcriptomic drug repositioning in hepatocellular carcinoma guided by disease signatures and tiered translational evidence

Systemic therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has advanced rapidly. However, durable benefit remains constrained by resistance, tumor heterogeneity, impaired liver function and weak predictive biomarkers. This narrative review examines how HCC disease signatures are constru...

AI anxiety among university librarians in Bangladesh: A multidimensional assessment using the Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale

As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly integrated into library services, understanding librarians’ psychological responses to this technological transformation has become an important research priority. This study investigates AI anxiety among university librarians...

Characterization of Invar/Si3N4 Type Composites Obtained by Spark Plasma Sintering

Abstract The use of metal matrix composites (MMCs) in aerospace industry, has shown significant growth recently due to their superior properties compared to conventional alloys. The Invar/Si 3 N 4 MMCs nanocrystalline composites were obtained by spark plasma sintering (SPS) of co...

“Don’t Put My Kid in a Box”: Motherwork and Aspirational Capital Among Mothers of Color in Urban Public Schools

This qualitative study examines the educational aspirations and advocacy practices of five mothers of color in and around Jackson Heights, Queens. Framed by Collins's motherwork and Yosso's aspirational capital, the analysis centers on how mothers enact care, resistance, and cult...

E8‑Phononic Hierarchical Memory via Phase‑Bucket Coding — E8 Intelligence Research

We propose that the 240 root vectors of E8, partitioned by a phase_bucket derived from id modulo 132, form a phi‑weighted prefix‑free tree where each branch encodes a logical operation of the phononic cascade, allowing a physical database schema to be realized in resonant phonon...

Ujamaa as Ubuntu in practice: Community-led climate adaptation and conflict mediation as social justice praxis in northwestern Tanzania

This paper explores the potential for African indigenous systems of thought (Ubuntu and Ujamaa) as the basis for community-based adaptation to climate change and conflict resolution in environmentally vulnerable settings. Based on 18 months of participatory action research in the...

Vascular plasticity in the gastric cancer environment: mechanisms, prognostic significance, and concepts of therapeutic interventions

Gastric cancer (GC) remains a major global health problem because of its aggressive behavior and frequent development of therapeutic resistance. In GC, as in other malignancies, blood vessels are essential for Tumor-cell survival and dissemination, thereby facilitating metastasis...

One Rule to Rule them All: Hybrid Harvest Control Rules Improve Bio-Economic Outcomes in an MSE Framework

Ramped threshold harvest control rules (HCRs), which reduce fishing pressure as a stock declines, are generally resilient to environmental stochasticity, but can struggle to provide good management advice when confronted with abrupt shifts in productivity. For instance, long-live...

Bilateral synchronous juvenile breast papillomatosis: A case report and review of the literature

Juvenile papillomatosis (JP) is a rare benign breast disorder primarily affecting young women. It is characterized by atypical papillary duct hyperplasia and multiple cysts, and was first described as a distinct clinicopathologic entity in 1980. We report the case of an 17-year-o...
