The UN Sanctions Committee and South Sudan: Expert Panel Reporting and Multilateral Accountability

This article develops a novel theoretical framework to analyse the complex accountability dynamics between the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) and its subsidiary sanctions bodies, with a focus on South Sudan. It argues that the relationship between the UNSC (the principal)...

Methodological Evaluation of Public Health Surveillance Systems in Senegal: A Systematic Review of Quasi-Experimental Designs for Assessing Reliability, 2000–2026

{ "background": "Public health surveillance systems are critical for disease control and health policy in West Africa. In Senegal, numerous systems have been implemented, yet comprehensive methodological evaluations of their reliability using robust quasi-experimental designs are...

Effectiveness of State Programs for Business Relocation and Adaptation in the Post-War Period in Ukraine

The state is an important participant in the system of economic relations, because it has the most valuable prospects for the formation of suitable prerequisites for doing business. The effectiveness of state economic policy can affect the creation of stable legislative prerequis...

The Two-Weight Core-EP Inverse in a Ring

In this paper, we characterize the two-weight core-EP inverse using the weighted core decomposition and establish its novel representations through the weighted g-Drazin inverse. Furthermore, we define and investigate the weighted core-EP orders within this general setting. These...

What Does a Satellite Campaign Do? Momentum, the Labour Party and Jeremy Corbyn on Facebook in the 2017 General Election

Satellite campaigns, organisations that campaign for a party without being part of it, became a visible part of British elections in 2017. The best known was Momentum, formed to support Jeremy Corbyn's leadership of the Labour Party. I ask what Momentum's Facebook page did that L...

The External Axiomatic Requirement Hypothesis

The Structure–Observer Interpretation Hypothesis (SOIH) describes the relationship between a structure S and the observer intelligence O that interprets it as I = f(S, O). The Observer-Relative Knowability Hypothesis (ORKH), in turn, treats knowability K as relative to an observe...

ENHANCING THE DETECTION OF PHISHING WEBSITE USING SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINE AND SIMULATED USER BEHAVIOUR IN MATLAB ENVIRONMENT

Background: However, the incorporation of behavioural features introduced a novel method of detecting phishing websites which offers valuable insights into user interaction patterns. Objective: The increasing daily presence on the internet has exposed users to several cybercrimes...

Protocol: generalisability of breast cancer survival prediction models across countries, and the local data needed to recalibrate them (P-CORE Paper 1)

Study protocol, version 3 (final), 2026-10-14, of a development, external validation and model-updating study in oestrogen receptor-positive early breast cancer. Six survival models of graded flexibility are developed on a West of Ireland registry cohort, frozen, and applied unch...

Application of a Microfluidic Lab-on-a-Chip Platform Coupled with Automated Motility Analysis for Phenotypic Drug Screening of Trypanosoma cruzi Trypomastigotes

Chagas disease remains a major neglected tropical disease, highlighting the need for new anti-Trypanosoma cruzi compounds and improved approaches for their phenotypic evaluation. Here, we extended a previously developed Lab-on-a-Chip (LOC) platform integrating a serial dilution g...

Aerobic Exercise Ameliorates Osteoarthritic Chondrocyte Degradation in Osteoarthritis via Regulating E2F8/NLRP14 Signaling Pathway

Although physical activity is known to mitigate disease risks, its protective molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. E2F8, a regulator of cell cycle and metabolism, showed significant differential expression between osteoarthritis (OA) and exercise models, suggesting it m...

Promoting Inclusion and SDGs in Museums Through Art

The present study refers to the case of a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics) educational program that was implemented with individuals with disabilities in a thematic technological museum in Greece. The educational program entitled From the Olive Press t...

Postoperative Wound Care in Mohs Micrographic Surgery: Tradition, Variation, and the Evidence

ABSTRACT Postoperative wound care following Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) has high variability and surprisingly limited real‐world evidence. Despite over one million MMS procedures performed annually in the United States, recommendations for topical agents, pressure dressings,...

Quantized Berry Phase: Z₂ Dichotomy in Time-Reversal Topological Insulators — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Berry phase quantization in time-reversal-invariant topological insulators yields only two distinct values (0 or π), enforced by Kramers degeneracy and lattice point-group symmetry. | MATH: Berry phase γ = ∮ A(k)·dk; time-reversal Θ imposes γ[Θ(k)] = −γ[k] mod 2π; for Θ²...

Thermal Cycle–Microstructure–Property Relationships in Rail Steel Heat‐Affected Zone Simulated by Gleeble

This study investigates the microstructural evolution and mechanical response of premium rail steel subjected to heat‐affected zone (HAZ) thermal cycles representative of flash butt welding (FBW). Dilatometry experiments were performed using a Gleeble thermomechanical simulator....

A Corn Ear Mass Prediction Method Based on TS-YOLO and Random Forest

Accurate estimation of corn ear mass is an essential component of intelligent harvesting. To achieve automated mass measurement of large-scale corn ears, this study developed a dual-view prediction platform and proposed a corn ear mass prediction method based on TS-YOLO and Rando...

Targeting an IL-17/IL-36 pathogenic hub in hidradenitis suppurativa with a bispecific antibody

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder with a high unmet need, particularly for treatment-resistant tunnels. Integrated multiomics analysis revealed that HS tunnels are spatially organized, self-amplifying inflammatory circuits driven by synergistic...

Harnessing Photoexcited-State Pathways in Boron Dipyrromethene for Phototheranostics and Photopolymerization

Abstract Boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes are widely recognized for their strong visible-light absorption, high fluorescence, and structural modularity. Beyond fluorescence, molecular engineering can redirect their photoexcited states toward distinct photochemical pathways, exp...

Disturbance-responsive online lithium-ion battery SOH estimation and analytical knee-point tracking with a Dual-Weibull Physics-Inspired Model

Accurate online estimation of lithium-ion battery state of health (SOH) and knee points remains challenging because feature-based estimators can be sensitive to changes in input-data quality, whereas conventional empirical models may lack the flexibility. Therefore, this study pr...
