Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), an iatrogenic complication of mechanical ventilation, remains poorly understood due to the absence of physiologically relevant in vitro models, impeding targeted therapy development. Here, we engineer a bioinspired acinus-on-a-chip model rec...

Mechanical and durability properties of concrete mixed and cured in hypersaline water
Abstract This study investigates the influence of hypersaline water on the compressive strength, bleeding, and water absorption of concrete, comparing freshwater and saltwater curing environments. Mixes were prepared using 0%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 30% saltwater by weight of mixing...

The association between long-term care use and mental health is ambiguous: informal care is generally negatively related to depressive symptoms, while formal care use is positively associated. As both care use and mental health are highly gendered, this study explored gender diff...

ABSTRACT The catalytic hydrogenolysis of glucose to produce 1,2‐propylene glycol (1,2‐PG) has opened promising avenues for sustainable chemical production. However, traditional Ru‐based catalysts suffer from issues such as high metal loading, poor dispersion, and a tendency to ag...

Forced Shadows of an Obstructed Hyperbolic Kac–Moody Denominator
The four orders of the quaternion algebra B6 carry four reflective wall data on lattices of signature (3,2); three integrate to Borcherds denominators and one is obstructed. The failed denominator survives as a weakly harmonic Maass form, and we prove its shadow is a Hecke eigenf...

This paper investigates the equivalence relations and algebraic structures induced by $U$-partial and $V$-partial orders on bounded lattices, respectively, with respect to the different neutral and zero elements. The study begins by presenting the equivalence classes associated w...

Abstract The global transition toward sustainable energy has positioned multi-oil feedstocks (Garcinia gummi-gutta and Garcinia indica) to increase feedstock availability, which is vital to biodiesel production, thereby reducing fossil fuel dependencies and limiting harmful emiss...

Background: Previous Australian child developmental assessment service (CDAS) cohorts have identified a small proportion of children experiencing extreme waiting times (≥730 days) for standardised developmental assessments. However, factors associated with these extreme waits rem...

Face orientation in offender portraits: Differences by crime type and gender
A left-cheek bias has often been reported in previous studies of general portraiture. However, it remains unclear whether a similar tendency appears in offender portraits. The present study examined face orientation in newspaper portraits of murderers and fraud offenders. The ana...

Religious Opposition, Communication Strategies and Ecumenical Approaches in Augustine
Augustine’s writings are characterized by his opposition to (primarily) three heretical and schismatic groups: the Manichaeans, the Donatists and the Pelagians (although De Haeresibus addresses a much greater range of heresies), as well as criticism of Jerome (within his own comm...

OBJECTIVE: Vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a benign intracranial tumor that is increasingly diagnosed in older adults. The relative contributions of tumor burden and surgical management to overall survival in elderly and very elderly patients remain incompletely characterized at a...

FHL3 Regulates Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotypic Switching Through the MRTFB-SRF Signaling Axis
Genome-wide association studies have uncovered many coronary artery disease (CAD) loci, but mechanisms linking risk variants to vascular biology remain unclear. We screen candidate causal CAD genes for regulators of the vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) contractile phenotype usi...

Circular economy (CE) research has expanded rapidly, yet the marketing dimension of circularity remains conceptually dispersed across green marketing, sustainable consumption, remanufacturing, product-service systems, circular business models, reverse logistics, and consumer beha...

Dynamical Entanglement Preservation via Graded Floquet Attractors on Superconducting Transmon Chains
We report the observation of long-range dynamical protection and coherent transport of two-qubit entangled states across discrete 1D lattice chains on a 156-qubit superconducting quantum processor (ibm_marrakesh). By combining an affine geometric phase gradient with periodic CPMG...

Why does extension in mathematics terminate, while extension in ontological description does not? The field of real numbers, confronted with its failure to be algebraically closed, was closed by the addition of a single axis: the imaginary uniti. The description of the real dimen...
