The Winter Filter Theory (WFT) Triptych: Information Compression, Topology, and Nozzle Dynamics in Cyclic Cosmology

The Winter Filter Theory (WFT) is a three-part cosmological and quantum information framework resolving the mass distribution crisis, the Hubble Tension, and quantum non-locality. The theory models the Big Bang as a translational extrusion via a Supermassive Black Hole (SMBH) noz...

Rethinking police and social outreach collaboration: early insights from project SCOPE

Purpose This study examines the early implementation of Project SCOPE, an “untethered” police–social outreach co-response program within the transit police in Philadelphia. Unlike traditional models that embed outreach workers with police, SCOPE deploys social service teams indep...

Machine learning–based modeling of response patterns to transcranial direct current stimulation in women with fibromyalgia

Background Clinical heterogeneity in fibromyalgia (FM) results in highly variable therapeutic responses to transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Identifying predictors and temporal response patterns is crucial to transform personalized neuromodulation strategies. This s...

Ex Situ Luring Sterilization and Visual Tracking for Wound Healing Acceleration

Abstract Conventional sterilization methods, such as advanced oxidation and cationic antimicrobial action, inevitably cause harm to host tissues because of their in situ attack mode. The residual bacterial debris further increases the risk of secondary infection. Additionally, th...

Defining and Examining Self-Reported GenAI Literacy and Pedagogical Judgment in Language Teacher Education: A Course-Integrated Professional Development Intervention

Abstract This mixed-methods study examines short-term changes in self-reported generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) literacy and articulated pedagogical judgment among in-service and transitioning language teachers enrolled in a graduate TESOL course at a Canadian universit...

ERIES-REVAULTS Pseudo-Dynamic tests on a full-scale masonry cross vault system: dataset

This paper presents the dataset generated within the ERIES-REVAULTs experimental campaign, aimed at investigating the in-plane shear behaviour of masonry cross vaults, representative of historic churches. In post-earthquake surveys, the damage associated with this type of mechani...

“I’m Present but Absent”: A Phenomenological Study of Children Exposed to Intimate Partner Violence in Arab Society in Israel

Children exposed to intimate partner violence (IPV) experience significant psychological consequences; however, the current literature is largely grounded in Western, individualist trauma frameworks. These perspectives often overlook how children interpret and negotiate violence...

Plant Wearable Sensors: A Comparative Review of Invasive and Non-Invasive Approaches for Real-Time Plant Health Monitoring

Plant wearable sensors have emerged as a transformative technology for precision agriculture and plant phenotyping, enabling in situ, real-time, and continuous acquisition of physiological signals from plant surfaces or internal tissues. However, existing reviews have organized t...

Lessons From the Communication Bridge Trials: Advancing Meaningful Dyadic Interventions Toward Implementation

Purpose: This review describes the historical motivations, development, and evolution of the Communication Bridge (CB) research program, which is designed to maximize quality of life and minimize burden for individuals living with dementia and their communication partners. The CB...

A nonlinear optimization and simulation framework for sustainable waqf allocation across Makkah, Madinah, and Qassim under Saudi vision 2030

Abstract Waqf (Islamic endowment) is a vital socioeconomic instrument whose contemporary effectiveness depends on efficient, transparent, and mathematically grounded and optimization-consistent management. Aligned with Saudi Vision 2030, this study develops a nonlinear welfare op...

Global Reanalysis Reveals Recurrent Cyanobacterial Enrichment in the Aquatic Plastisphere

Abstract The plastisphere is an emerging anthropogenic ecosystem hosting complex microbial assemblages. While heterotrophic colonizers are well studied, the role of primary producers such as cyanobacteria remains underexplored. Here, we reanalyzed 16S rRNA gene amplicon data from...

Family mass murder in the United States, 1970–2019: Perpetrator mental health characteristics and the role of domestic violence

Abstract Examining perpetrator characteristics of, and risk factors for, different types of mass murder, such as family mass murder—the most common type—could have important ramifications for preventive efforts. Histories of domestic violence and mental illness are of particular...

Navigating Childhood Grief Developing parent-child communication when a parent has a terminal illness: A scoping review of family-focused, pre-bereavement interventions

The death of a parent from terminal illness is one of the most distressing experiences a child can face. When communication between parents and children is limited, or not developmentally appropriate, children may experience unresolved grief, increasing the risk of long-term emot...

Phase Compensator Combined Feedback Control to Mitigate Dynamic Hysteresis in Piezoelectric Actuators

The inherent dynamic hysteresis nonlinearity of piezoelectric actuators severely degrades the control accuracy of micropositioning systems. This paper proposes a composite control method based on a phase compensator and polynomial correction. Unlike conventional approaches that r...

State-dependent governance escalation in Wikimedia wikis: excess monitoring and enforcement concentration after conflict shocks

Rules and monitoring can help communities coordinate under stress, but they can also harden into counterproductive red tape. This paper asks whether a wiki’s pre-shock procedural regime shapes how it reorganizes when stress spikes. Bureaucratic state is measured as excess monitor...

How Are Green Financial Markets Linked to Green Cryptocurrency Return States? Evidence from a Cross-Quantilogram Approach

This paper examines directional quantile dependence from green bonds, clean energy markets, and carbon markets to the return states of five literature-classified green cryptocurrencies. Using daily returns from 25 September 2019 to 23 May 2025, we estimate static cross-quantilogr...

HNRNPK Lactylation Amplifies Inflammation and Exacerbates Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury by Regulating Jag2 Splicing

BACKGROUND: Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury triggers profound metabolic reprogramming and lactate accumulation. However, how this metabolic stress regulates inflammatory gene expression remains poorly understood. We hypothesized that lactylation, a lactate-derived posttran...

Verification versus Search in Labeled Subcube Partitions: Exact Small-Width Bounds

The paper studies M(k), the maximum decision-tree complexity of a total unique search problem with witness size at most k, and determines the exact values M(1)=1, M(2)=2, M(3)=4 and M(4)=5 with a computer-assisted upper bound for width four.

Climate Change Awareness and Impact in Ecological Zones of Tropical Rainforest and Guinea Savannah of South-Western Nigeria

The impact of climate change on the Tropical Rainforest and Guinea Savannah vegetation zones is a global and regional concern due to their high biodiversity and role in regulating carbon, water, and nutrient cycles. Recent environmental changes are linked to rising atmospheric ca...

Conventional Ion-Exchange and Chelating Resins for Metal Recovery: A Critical Comparison of Selectivity, Dynamic Performance, Regeneration, and Process Integration

Abstract : Conventional ion-exchange and chelating resins are widely used for metal recovery, purification, and polishing, yet they are still frequently compared using equilibrium capacity rather than process function. This structured critical review examines how charge-driven ex...
