Finite Support and Preparation Criteria for Independent Effective Subsystems: A Contract for Non-Injective Admissibility

A recurring assumption in emergent-physics programmes is that once a fundamental description is given, the decomposition of the world into independently preparable subsystems comes for free. We show that on a substrate not supplied with a subsystem factorisation this assumption s...

Association between stride length variability and osteosarcopenia in community-dwelling older women: a cross-sectional study

Abstract Background Osteosarcopenia, the coexistence of sarcopenia and low bone mass, raises the risk of falls, fractures, and functional decline, yet its diagnosis depends on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and muscle function testing, which are difficult to apply routine...

Certified upper bounds for Fejes Tóth's point-goalie problem at n = 4 and 5

In 1974 László Fejes Tóth posed the following problem: place n points in the plane so asto minimise the largest distance from a line meeting the unit-radius disc to the nearestpoint. Writing r_n for the optimum, he proved r_1 = r_2 = 1 and r_3 = 3/5 exactly, gaveconstructions sho...

Financial Liquidity as an Independent Buffer Against Foot-and-Mouth Disease–Related Income Vulnerability in Mixed-Species Smallholder Farms

Complete reproducibility package for a study testing whether farm-household financial liquidity (cash relative to debt) is associated with reduced FMD-attributable income vulnerability independently of off-farm income diversification, using survey data from 286 mixed-species smal...

ARTEMISININ FROM ARTEMISIA ANNUA: A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW OF ITS ANTIMALARIAL POTENTIAL

Malaria remains one of the world's most serious infectious illnesses, producing major morbidity and mortality, particularly in tropical and subtropical areas. The rise of drug-resistant Plasmodium variants has highlighted the urgent need for effective and safe antimalarial medici...

In degenerate, compensated and viscous - crystalline alloy, , the Global Einstein -and- Van Cong relations, as those given in Equations (24, 31), and various optical-electrical-thermoelectric laws, enhanced by: the optico-electrical phenomenon (O-EP) and the electro-optical pheno...

Optimising LoRA for fine-tuning lightweight LLM expert agents in cross-regional collaboration in the construction industry: Evidence from the Greater Bay Area

Abstract Under the “One Country, Two Systems, Three Legal Jurisdictions” framework, cross-regional collaboration in the construction industry of the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) is more complex than other urban agglomerations, and this makes traditional method...

Spatially defined IGF1R-STMN1 axis delineates a metastatic cell state in osteosarcoma

Abstract Metastatic osteosarcoma (OS) remains the leading cause of disease-related mortality, yet effective therapies are still lacking. Here, we integrated single-cell RNA sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and functional assays to investigate signaling dependencies in OS meta...

EVALUATION OF THE EFFECTS OF THE VOLUMES OF THE POSTERIOR AND ANTERIOR VERTEBRAL MUSCLES ESTAMAIATED FROM THE COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY IMAGES ON THE LUMBAR LORDOSIS

Aim: This study aims to analyze the relationship between prevertebral and postvertebral muscle volumes comparatively with PAL technique, (projection area per length squared) which is used to calculate the excessive curvature in lumbar region (lumbar lordosis) with quantitative (n...

No Set Carries Exactly Three Dense Linear Orders without Endpoints: A Proof in a Weak Zermelo Theory without Choice or Replacement

Let Z_sep be the theory consisting of Extensionality, Pairing, Infinity, Union, Power Set, and the full Separation schema. Neither Choice, Replacement, Foundation, nor any form of Countable Choice is assumed. For a standard finite n ≥ 1, the notation s(X) = n abbreviates a first-...

A hybrid combination of analytic hierarchy process and best-worst method: simulation and application

Purpose Among various multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods, the best-worst method (BWM) is acknowledged as an improvement of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). However, data collected from AHP surveys could not be used in BWM studies and vice versa because the two req...
