Hybrid Five-Dimensional Gravity with a Constrained Vector

We study a one-boundary five-dimensional Einstein–AdS construction coupled to one additional bulk carrier, a Maxwell field whose normalisable zero mode is subject to a unit-timelike constraint and nonlinear interaction on the observer boundary. The reduced boundary theory lies in...

Entity Component System as a Relational Model: Archetypes, Component-Centric Relations, and Normal Forms

The Entity Component System (ECS) is a data-oriented software architectural pattern for the efficient organization of entities and associated components and is used in particular in performance-critical applications such as video games and real-time simulations.In the literature,...

An Underlying Ontology of the Psyche Offers New Tools for Self Reflection

This paper proposes an integrated systems framework in which Time, Space, Matter, and Energy constitute four fundamental forms whose relationships establish a foundational ontology. Drawing on well-established physical relationships developed over more than a century of modern ph...

Patient delay and diagnosis-to-surgery interval in thyroid cancer and its related factors: a cross-sectional study from southern Iran

Thyroid cancer is affecting many people all around the world and is rising in incidence and prevalence. It is also highly treatable if diagnosed and addressed on time. This study aims to investigate the time intervals between symptom onset and seeking medical care, and also the t...

Cognition and Heart Failure Subtypes: A Large Health Care System Real‐World Cohort

Background Studies suggest that hypoperfusion from heart failure (HF) may contribute to cognitive decline. However, the relationship between the HF subtypes and cognition remains poorly described in real‐world populations. Methods We conducted a cross‐sectional study of patients...

International climate finance and emission reductions: what do the last twenty years tell us?

Abstract We empirically examine the impact of international climate finance transfers on recipient countries’ carbon emissions. We analyse the effect of mitigation and adaptation finance using emission data of 164 non-OECD countries from 2000 to 2017. We use a distributed lag mod...

Green innovative service behaviour through contingent reward transactional leadership

Prior leadership research has largely focused on voluntary pro-environmental behaviour under inspirational leadership, leaving structured reward-based approaches to green service innovation underexplored. This study examines how green contingent reward transactional leadership (G...

The Dipole-Wave Framework: A Capstone

Abstract This paper consolidates six earlier papers on the dipole-wave framework into a single, accessible summary. The core idea is that every subatomic particle has a dipole—a tiny oscillating magnet—that emits a real guiding wave. The particle follows that wave. This simple me...

From exception to decision: payment exception handling and decision traceability in Swiss private banking operations

Purpose Payment exceptions are governance moments, not merely operational incidents. When human operators resolve flagged payments – increasingly with AI-generated analysis shaping their judgement – the resulting decision must be capable of withstanding regulatory examination, cl...

Implementation of CoARA principles in CNR Research Director competitions: in-depth document analysis of evaluation grids and detailed mapping of operational features

This paper provides an extended and detailed documentary analysis of the implementation of the principles set forth by the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) within the competitive selection procedures of the National Research Council of Italy (CNR) for the top-l...

Venture Capital Financing in a Crisis Economy: Entrepreneurial Risk, Venture Creation, and Perceived Firm Financial Performance

Financial crises severely constrain entrepreneurs’ access to traditional financing, increasing the need for alternative funding mechanisms. Venture capital (VC) represents one such financing alternative and may also provide strategic and managerial support. However, evidence conc...

Exploratory Non-invasive Estimation of Cervical Dilation from Electrohysterography and Maternal Data: A Machine-Learning Proof-of-Concept Study

Abstract Cervical dilation during labor is commonly assessed through repeated vaginal examinations, which can be uncomfortable, depend on the observer, and are not suitable for continuous monitoring. This pilot study explored whether machine-learning regression could retrospectiv...

Host‐Guest Recognition‐Enabled Covalent Organic Framework Artificial Interphase for Anion Regulation and Selective Li + Transport in Lithium Metal Batteries

ABSTRACT The practical application of lithium metal batteries is severely restricted by dendritic lithium growth and the continuous evolution of unstable solid electrolyte interphases, both of which originate from sluggish Li + desolvation kinetics. Herein, a host‐guest recogniti...

Potential of Seaweed to Improve the Quality and Shelf Life of Fish and Fishery Products

ABSTRACT The rapid growth of the global population has increased the demand for safe, healthy, and sustainable food, and fish supplies about 20% of the world's protein demand. Fishery products are rich in nutrient compositions such as moisture, protein, lipids, minerals, etc. Moi...

From Lime Scrubbing to Magnesium Bisulfite Circulation: A Critical Review of SO₂ Capture, Sulfite Recovery, and Process Intensification

Wet flue-gas desulfurization remains one of the most mature routes for controlling sulfur dioxide, yet conventional calcium-based systems deliberately combine gas absorption, neutralization, oxidation, crystallization, and solids recirculation in a single slurry loop. This integr...

Client-perpetrated aggression is endemic across the veterinary workforce: Experiences across clinical, administrative, and leadership roles

Abstract Background : Client-perpetrated aggression is increasingly recognized as an occupational health concern in veterinary medicine. Recent studies have documented its prevalence among veterinarians; however, less is known about its impact on other members of the veterinary t...

VARZIN V2 — Recoverable but Not Composable: Representation Recovery and Systematic Composition in a Frozen Language Model

This research report presents the integrated Phase 0–2 results of VARZIN V2, an experimental study of the relationship between structural representation recovery and systematic compositional generalization in a frozen language model. The study asks whether a structural variable t...

Endoscopic spine surgery: a bibliometric and citation analysis of the most influential articles and authors across 19 spine journals (1976–2025)

Abstract Purpose To understand the development and trajectory of endoscopic spine surgery. Methods The Web of Science Core Collection was searched for full-endoscopic and microendoscopic spine surgery articles published in 19 spine-related journals. Citation analysis identified t...

Surface Hydrogenation Strategy for Constructing a 2D B12X2H8 (X = N, P, As) Family with Embedded Aromatic Icosahedral B12 Superatoms

Surface hydrogenation is a key strategy for material modification. The icosahedral B12 superatom, featuring a closed-shell electronic structure and aromatic stability, serves as an ideal building block for 2D functional materials. Using first-principles calculations, we design hi...

Lord of the Two Easts and Lord of the Two Wests (Quran 55:17): The Deferred Unveilings

This paper offers a new philosophical-scientific hermeneutic of the Quranic verse, "Lord of the two Easts and Lord of the two Wests" (Surah Ar-Rahman, 55:17), moving beyond conventional seasonal interpretations toward a layered ontological reading. It introduces two frameworks: "...
