Quantitative operating risk assessment of Francis turbine unit under variable load in hydro-wind-solar complementary energy system

The hydro-wind-solar multi-energy complementary clean energy base (HWS-MECB) is an effective approach for renewable energy integration, in which hydro turbine unit (HTU) play a critical stabilizing role. However, participation in such systems forces HTUs to operate frequently in...

Eudesmane Sesquiterpenoids from Dregea Volubilis Suppress Kidney Stones via Akt Signalling to Inhibit Oxalate Biosynthesis in Drosophila

Abstract Dregea volubilis has long been used in traditional medicine for the treatment of urolithiasis, yet its bioactive constituents and molecular mechanisms remain largely undefined. Here, molecular networking-guided UPLC-ESI-MS/MS analysis enabled the isolation of ten sesquit...

Refractory Psoriatic Lesions in Japanese Patients Before and After Switching Biologics

ABSTRACT Biologics can improve disease control in patients with psoriasis vulgaris (PsO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA); however, refractory regions may persist despite biologic therapy. This study aimed to evaluate refractory anatomical regions in patients with PsO and PsA who un...

Robotic Liver Transplantation Comes of Age: A Narrative Review of Technique and Early Outcomes

Abstract Purpose of Review To review the evolving role of robotic recipient liver transplantation, including its emergence from experience in robotic hepatobiliary surgery and living-donor hepatectomy, global adoption, operative techniques, patient and graft selection, and anesth...

Haunting data: Mental health, data-hacking and digital temporalities

This article maps the experiences of victims of the Vastaamo psychotherapy centre data hack by analysing their stories through a lens provided by the digital hauntology framework. The article views the data-hacking incident as a form of terror that continues to weigh on the victi...

Reliability of ultrasonography for transversus abdominis and lumbar multifidus thickness in participants with and without low back pain

Abstract Objective To evaluate the reliability of the transversus abdominis (TrA) and lumbar multifidus (LM) muscle assessment through musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSU) by exploring changes in the muscle thickness across the rest, contraction, and respiratory cycle (RC) phases in...

To engage or not to engage? Pension fund active ownership of fossil fuel investments

Purpose In the face of pressure to invest responsibly, pension fund managers must decide whether to remain passive investors, engage or divest their fossil fuel holdings. Factors affecting this decision are not yet fully understood. This study aims to explore the perceptions of p...

Generative AI in Global Marketing for Sustainability: A Systematic Review of Creativity, Cultural Adaptation, and Governance

Generative AI (GenAI) has emerged in global marketing amid intensifying sustainability regulation and scrutiny. Yet the same generative capabilities that can support the detection of greenwashing may also facilitate its production and dissemination. This systematic review examine...

Machine learning prediction of electronic density of states using Lorentzian basis expansion

In this work we propose an approach for fast and reliable prediction of electronic density of states (DOS), which provides valuable information about physical properties of crystals and particularly important for discovery and screening of new materials. Presented method is based...

Predicting Self-Harm Events After Emergency Department Visits Associated With Mental or Substance Use Disorder Diagnoses

OBJECTIVE: Using a machine learning model, the authors aimed to predict self-harm events within 90 days of an emergency department (ED) visit associated with a mental or substance use disorder diagnosis. METHODS: Electronic health record and claims data of patients ages ≥11 years...

Acyl-CoA Oxidase-Mediated β-Oxidation Regulates the Lifestyle Transition of Metarhizium rileyi from Insect Pathogen to Plant Mutualist

Abstract Metarhizium rileyi as a widely distributed insect pathogenic fungus, has a promising application prospect in pest control. This study investigates M. rileyi strain XSBN200920 following its endophytic colonization of Nicotiana benthamiana. The fungus establishes systemic...

Ice Converts Phenols into Persistent Mineral-Bound Polymers

Abstract Freezing fundamentally alters how minerals transform dissolved phenols in cold environments. As water freezes, solutes are excluded from the crystal lattice and concentrated into microscopic pockets of unfrozen liquid, creating reaction conditions far more extreme than t...

Storm Surge Risk Assessment of Immovable Cultural Heritage in the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area

Abstract The Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA), with rich cultural heritage, is increasingly exposed to climate-driven disasters, especially severe storm surges. This study develops a storm surge risk assessment framework for immovable cultural heritage under clima...

Validation of the MSK-HQ in a hand therapy setting

Objectives There is a shortage of clinical tools integrating the individual journey through healthcare, as care providers frequently use diverse Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) that cannot be easily aggregated. The use of a single PROM from primary care into tertiary ca...
