Accuracy is not mortality: corrected impact framework for psychiatric and genomic decision support

AI-assisted methodological correction and replacement impact framework, not a clinical efficacy study. This note identifies and corrects unsupported attribution of an external diagnostic-accuracy result to a proprietary engine, transport of attempt-population fractions to suicide...

Measurement and hydrodynamic modelling quantifies the mechanical cost of cyprid locomotion

Barnacle cyprids must locate a settlement site using finite lipid reserves acquired during earlier feeding stages, yet the mechanical cost of their locomotion remains uncertain. Previous estimates of cyprid swimming costs are limited and do not resolve how stroke-scale mechanics,...

A Hesitant Fuzzy Rough Set-Based Three-Way Decision Model and Its Application in Infectious Disease Diagnosis

Hesitant fuzzy information systems are effective tools for expressing uncertain information. How to solve decision-making problems in hesitant fuzzy information systems is the focus of this paper. Three-way decision and hesitant fuzzy rough sets are effective tools for solving un...

Development and internal validation of a model predicting four year cardiovascular kidney metabolic syndrome stage progression

Abstract To develop a model for predicting cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome stage progression in middle-aged and older Chinese adults and to evaluate the incremental predictive value of routinely available clinical variables beyond baseline CKM stage. This study use...

Occurrence of New Helicobacter pylori Infections in Healthy, Helicobacter pylori-Negative Adults: A Prospective Observational Study

Objectives: The annual incidence of new Helicobacter pylori infections evaluated by serological test in Korean adults has been reported to be 2.1%–3.3%. This study evaluated the rate of new H. pylori infections using the urea breath test (UBT) and the factors associated with new...

Development of IBU KELANA: a mobile health application to optimise antenatal care and high-risk pregnancy detection in primary health care Seberang Padang, Indonesia

Abstract Background Maternal and neonatal mortality remain major challenges in Indonesia, largely due to incomplete antenatal care (ANC) and delayed identification of high-risk pregnancies. Mobile health applications (mHealth) offer opportunities to improve maternal healthcare de...

The Epoxybenzooxocine Core of Integrastatins and Analogs: A Comprehensive Review of Structure, Synthetic Approaches, and Biological Applications

Abstract Integrastatins and their biogenetic counterparts possess a rare heterotetracyclic framework containing an unprecedented [6/6/6/6]-tetracyclic skeleton and a central [3/3/1]-bicyclic ketal core with high pharmaceutical potential, particularly due to their potent anti-HIV-...

From rule-taking to rule-making chemistry: a minimal population–environment feedback model

A key step towards life is the shift from chemistry that merely adapts to its surroundings to chemistry that actively reshapes the local physicochemical conditions that rule its own replication. Using a coupled population-environment feedback model, we identify the conditions und...

Characterization of the GARIS-III Separator via the 40 Ar + 208 Pb Fusion Evaporation Reaction

This work reports on the measurements performed during the commissioning of the GARIS-III separator in RIKEN with the study of the 40 Ar + 208 Pb → 248 Fm * reaction. The excitation functions of the 2n, 3n, and 4n exit channels were measured with maximum cross sections of 27.5 ±...

Widefield optical coherence tomography angiography of fellow eyes in patients with Coats Disease

PURPOSE: Recent advances in retinal imaging have revealed vasculostructural alterations in fellow eyes of patients with Coats disease, thereby challenging the traditional concept of Coats disease as a strictly unilateral disorder. To further explore the phenotype of this retinal...

Design and Implementation of the Zero-Query Name System (ZNS): Evaluating Transport-Independent State Replication Against Distributed DNS Querying

The Domain Name System (DNS) operates on a distributed request-response paradigm formulated under the constraints of 1980s network topologies: resolvers issue queries over the network, cache answers for a bounded Time-To-Live (TTL), and re-query upon expiration. While resilient,...

Caffeine pollution changes anti-predator behaviour in Gammarus pulex similarly to manipulative parasites

Caffeine is an emerging environmental contaminant in freshwater ecosystems that is primarily introduced through wastewater. Even at low concentrations, caffeine can affect the physiology and behaviour of aquatic organisms. Still, its ecological significance remains little underst...

Transformative Materials Research: Defining Conceptual Change across Scales

Abstract What qualifies as transformative materials research? In this Viewpoint, we use “transformative” to denote work that forces revision of underlying assumptions, enables generalization across systems, or reveals regimes inaccessible to existing frameworks. The term is widel...

Restoring the Mathematical Difficulty Landscape: Why Constructive Topological Manifolds and Proof Digestibility Outshine Brute-Force AI Mining

On September 9, 2026, Fields Medalist Terence Tao published a profound epistemological diagnosis on the trajectory of modern mathematics: the collection of fruitful, insight-generating open problems is an exhaustible, non-renewable resource currently being mined by brute-force AI...

Decoupling Triplet Population from Intersystem Crossing in TADF Materials

Abstract The characterization of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) relies on detecting delayed emission following triplet formation. However, triplet population under optical excitation is fundamentally limited by the intrinsic intersystem crossing (ISC) efficiency...

In vitro assessment of cell proliferation and migration induced by crude lychee seed extract in human gingival fibroblast cells (HGF-1)

Abstract Background: Human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) are central regulators of oral wound healing. Oxidative stress impairs fibroblast viability and motility, potentially delaying wound healing. Lychee seeds are rich in antioxidants, such as phenolics and flavonoids. Their anti...

Population-level impacts of reducing artificial light at night across an entire migratory corridor

Artificial light at night (ALAN) is a widespread anthropogenic pollution that poses challenges for wildlife in nearly every ecosystem on planet Earth. Although there has been substantial progress on understanding the effects of ALAN on animal physiology and behaviour, few studies...

Auditory Cueing in Spatial Neglect: Effects on Visual Search Depend on Auditory Spatial Performance.

Research on spatial neglect predominantly focuses on the visual domain, often conceptualising cross-modal spatial cueing as a potential means to ameliorate visuospatial performance. As spatial neglect can affect multiple sensory modalities, it is unclear how patients with differe...

Topology and Minimal Group Representation of the Classical Dual Sector of Quantum Theory

In this paper we compute and analyze the geometrical and topological changes in quantum physics within the new framework of our recent work [APL Quantum 2, 016104 (2025)] on Classicalization. Thus, the results of our paper here are twofold: Topology, geometry and Classicalization...

Severe thiamine deficiency in Baltic salmon coincides with low wild recruitment, increasingly so at long migration distances

Thiamine deficiency is a condition implicated as a driver of population declines across continents and taxa. In salmonids, symptoms of this deficiency are often observed in compensatory hatcheries, where large parts of the clutches display severe neurological disorders and die. H...
