Delusional infestation in Parkinson disease: a case report of medication-induced psychosis

Delusional infestation (DI) is an uncommon manifestation of psychosis in Parkinson disease (PD), and is often associated with dopaminergic therapy. We describe a 66-year-old woman with PD who developed visual and tactile delusions of a parasitic infestation while receiving dopami...

Derivation of the Born Rule for Real Amplitudes, in a Discrete Substrate with a Single, Exclusionary Dynamics

The Born rule, P(i) = |ψᵢ|²/Z, is posited as a postulate in the standard formulation of quantum mechanics, where ψ remains a primitive object and the exponent 2 a given fact with no internal justification. This work proposes a derivation of it, decomposing the structure of ψ, wit...

Green Consumption Orientation and Purchase Intentions Toward Other Ethical Products: The Mediating Roles of Warm Glow and Moral Self-Regulation

An important question in sustainable consumption research is whether consumers’ green consumption orientation (GCO) extends beyond environmentally focused choices and relates to their willingness to purchase other types of ethical products, including those associated with fair tr...

Automated segmentation of myopic atrophic lesions on ultra-widefield fundus images: effects of training-set size and color representation

Abstract Purpose To develop and evaluate a deep-learning model for automated segmentation of myopic atrophic lesions on ultra-widefield (UWF) fundus images and to evaluate the effects of training-set size and color representation on segmentation performance. Methods This study in...

Gravity-modulated Weakly Nonlinear Oscillatory Bioconvection in a Densely Packed Porous Medium

In this paper, we investigate the effect of gravity modulation on Darcy–Brinkman bioconvection in a porous medium saturated with a Newtonian fluid containing gyrotactic microorganisms. A weakly nonlinear stability analysis is performed to examine the oscillatory mode of convectio...

Multi-Objective Optimization of Relief-Well Dewatering for Canals Under High Groundwater Levels Using NSGA-II and Entropy-Weighted TOPSIS

High groundwater levels can generate excessive uplift pressure beneath canal linings, causing heaving, cracking, and sliding failure. This study developed a multi-objective framework for relief-well dewatering design in a damaged reach of the headrace canal at the HLJ Hydropower...
