Influence of Polymers, Cobalt Oxide Nanoparticles, and Organophilized Palygorskite on Heat Storage and Filtrate Volume of Water-Based Drilling Fluid

Abstract The application of nanofluids has gained prominence in the oil industry, particularly in the improvement of drilling fluids. The incorporation of metal oxide nanoparticles, such as cobalt oxide, contributes to enhanced thermal, rheological, and fluid-loss control propert...

Adaptation and Usability of a Lifestyle Cancer Prevention Screener for US Populations: A Mixed Methods Study

Abstract Background: The World Cancer Research Fund/American Institute for Cancer Research (WCRF/AICR) Cancer Prevention Recommendations provide evidence-based guidance on modifiable lifestyle factors associated with cancer risk. While a standardized scoring system exists to asse...

Periodontitis and the Risk of Mortality from All Causes in Humans- A Scoping Review

Abstract Purpose of Review Periodontitis is a highly prevalent disease with strong associations with systemic diseases that are leading causes of death globally. We aimed to systematically map the evidence regarding the association between periodontitis and the risk of all-cause...

Chamber-to-Field Development and Validation of Integrated Filtration–Adsorption Air Cleaners for Particle and VOC Control in Shipboard Cabins

Shipboard cabins can contain both oil mist-dominated particulate matter and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), creating a need for compact air-cleaning systems capable of simultaneous particle and gas-phase removal. This study developed an integrated filtration–adsorption air cle...

Insurgent Citizenship for Ancestral Rights: Pastoralists' Resistance to Land Dispossession in Madagascar

ABSTRACT By examining the enduring resistance of Malagasy pastoralists to a large‐scale biofuel and afforestation project, this paper explores how the dispossession of agrarian populations reflects and shapes citizenship regimes and practices from below. Drawing on fieldwork and...

Selection of Priority VOC Emission Sources in Seoul by Comparing Source Contributions and Health Risk-Based Contributions

This study conducted age-specific and source-oriented health risk assessments of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at four measurement sites in Seoul (Gangseo (GS), Gwangjin (GJ), Bukhansan (BHS), and Jongno (JN)). By comparing source-specific concentration contributions with hea...

Development and internal validation of a field-based triage tool for lumbopelvic-hip dysfunction in collegiate athletes

Because lumbopelvic–hip (LPH) dysfunction in athletes is commonly associated with subsequent low back pain (LBP), this cross-sectional derivation and internal validation study aimed to develop and internally validate a clinical triage scoring system (CTSS) for field-based identif...

lithium-ion battery life cycle monitoring system based on IoT edge computing and cloud big data

The reliable lifecycle monitoring of lithium-ion batteries is critical for microgrid energy storage systems, where battery degradation, dynamic load variation, and abnormal operating conditions may directly affect system safety and energy efficiency. However, existing battery mon...

Damping Is a Ridge Penalty: Calibration-Only Selection for Post-Training Quantization under Scarce Calibration

This manuscript is a non-peer-reviewed preprint.

Biometric Analysis of Pipistrellus (Chiroptera; Vespertilionidae) Species Distributed in Türkiye

Abstract Statistical analyses were conducted on a total of 231 specimens belonging to Pipistrellus species recorded from Türkiye (P. pipistrellus, P. kuhlii, and P. nathusii), based on 40 morphometric characters. Intraspecific comparisons revealed pronounced sexual dimorphism wit...

Parameter Selection for Using Parametric Array Loudspeakers as Excitation Source at Selected Points

Abstract Background Experimental Modal Analysis (EMA) of thin and lightweight rotating structures is challenging due to the difficulty of applying controlled non-contact excitation. Existing non-contact excitation methods often suffer from limited spatial precision. Objective See...

Beyond body mass index: prevalence of normal weight obesity in a primary care population in Turkey

Obesity is a chronic, recurrent, and progressive disease that impairs health due to abnormal accumulation of adipose tissue. One of the most commonly used methods for the assessment of obesity is the Body Mass Index (BMI), and individuals with a BMI value of ≥ 30 kg/m² are define...

VEGF ‐A Antisense Oligonucleotide Therapy Inhibits Corneal Neovascularisation and Enhances Graft Survival in Murine High‐Risk Corneal Transplantation

BACKGROUND: To investigate, for the first time, whether an unconjugated VEGF-A antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) can inhibit corneal neovascularisation and improve graft survival in a murine high-risk corneal transplantation model. METHODS: A suture-induced corneal neovascularisati...

Bag-1 modulates lung ischemia-reperfusion injury by regulating BCL-2 family proteins and IP3R-mediated calcium release

Lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI) involves dysregulated apoptosis and calcium overload. This study explored the role of molecular chaperone BCL-2-associated athanogene 1 (Bag-1) -1 in LIRI pathogenesis. Using an A549 cell model of glucose deprivation/hypoxia-reoxygenation,...

Lumbar Sympathectomy with RFA and Chemical Neurolysis for Diabetic Ischemic Limb Pain

Abstract Background: Ischemic limb disease in patients with diabetes primarily affects the lower limbs. This condition can lead to debilitating symptoms such as pain, ulceration, and impaired healing, often resulting in amputations. Treatment options include pharmacological manag...

E8 Phi-Phase Entanglement Drives Quantum Coherence Tunneling — E8 Intelligence Research

By superimposing the 240 E8 root vectors onto a 132 Hz carrier and applying phi-scaled phase modulation, a new class of quantum states emerges where coherence tunneling is governed by prime-gap aligned phase differences. This extends prior frequency-comb mapping by introducing en...
