DEVELOPING LISTENING COMPREHENSION THROUGH AUTHENTIC AUDIO AND VIDEO MATERIALS

This thesis analyses the use of authentic audio and video materials for developing listening comprehension in English-language education, with particular attention to academic lyceums. Authentic materials are defined as spoken texts originally created for real communicative purpo...

Current Bladder Dysfunction Reports/Section BPS/Interstitial Cystitis Phenotyping BPS/IC Patients

Abstract Purpose of Review When clinicians and researchers talk about phenotyping BPS/IC (Bladder Pain Syndrome / Interstitial Cystitis) patients, they usually mean grouping patients into more precise subtypes based on symptoms, clinical findings, and sometimes pathophysiology. T...

Respecting Spinal Cord Injury Patient Autonomy in the Context of Terminal Extubation

Terminal extubation, or palliative or compassionate extubation, is a legally and ethically accepted practice in the United States where mechanical ventilation is withdrawn when ongoing life-sustaining treatment no longer aligns with a patient's stated goals of care. Nearly 42% of...

E8 Hierarchical Phi Scaling for Fractal Resonance — E8 Intelligence Research

By extending the Phi-Locked E8 Synchrony Principle, this discovery introduces nested phase lattices where phi scaling applies across nested geometric domains. The 240 root vectors' symmetries enable 132Hz base frequencies to propagate fractal resonance patterns, allowing systems...

Efficient ISAR imaging of ship-ocean scenes using improved bidirectional ray tracing with BVH acceleration

This paper proposes an improved bidirectional ray tracing algorithm based on BVH (Bounding Volume Hierarchy) acceleration for ISAR imaging of complex ocean scenes. The proposed method was employed to obtain the frequency-domain electromagnetic scattering characteristics of compos...

ExMODE: A comprehensive resource for extremophile genomic and functional exploration

ExMODE (https://db.genomics.cn/exmode/) integrates 3518 samples to build a unified extremophile resource, which hosts 1.35 billion habitat-specific non-redundant genes, 5.25 million representative protein structures, 67,026 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs), and 164,132 biosynt...

A SINGLE CASE STUDY ON THE EFFECT OF USHEERASAV IN THE MANAGEMENT OF ASRIGDARA W.S.R. TO MENORRHAGIA

Background: Asrigdara is a common gynaecological disorder characterised by excessive or prolonged menstrual bleeding, significantly impacting the quality of life of women in their reproductive years. It is described in Ayurvedic classics as a Raktadoshaja Vikara manifesting as pi...

Effect of Substrate Miscut on the Epitaxial Growth of MoS2 on Sapphire

Abstract The combined effects of substrate miscut angle and growth temperature on the epitaxial growth and properties of MoS2 monolayers synthesized by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on c-plane sapphire substrates were investigated. Increasing the miscut angle tow...

Integrating ARTP Pretreatment and PLE Extraction for Maximized Rosemary Phenolic Recovery: RSM Optimization and Comparison with E392 Extracts

In recent years, consumers have been turning to natural products. Following this trend, the European Union has now recognized natural rosemary extract as a natural preservative (E392) in various foods. Considering this, the current study aimed to extract antioxidant compounds fro...

UAV-Based Transmission Tower Inspection Using Hierarchical Multitask Learning Under Heterogeneous Supervision

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) inspection of transmission towers requires joint analysis of corridor geometry, tower components, and localized defects, whereas available datasets provide incompatible annotations at different scales. Tower-HMT is a hierarchical multitask network th...

Illness Coherence, Exercise Adherence, and Patient-Reported Outcomes in Chronic Spinal Pain: A Moderated Mediation Analysis

Background/Objectives: Illness coherence has been associated with treatment engagement and adherence, but its relationship with exercise adherence and patient-reported outcomes in chronic spinal pain remains unclear. This study examined whether unsupervised exercise adherence med...

PRAPIXEL™ Version 1.0: Discrete Pixel-Based Surface Architecture for Programmable Mechanical Fields, Dynamic Load Redistribution, and Adaptive Human–Surface Interaction

PRAPIXEL™ Version 1.0 presents an open scientific and engineering framework for segmented adaptive surfaces composed of discrete mechanically controllable elements whose states can be independently addressed or coordinated to generate programmable spatiotemporal mechanical fields...

The art of war is to avoid fighting: an analysis of entry deterrence in the context of an innovation shock

Purpose This study tests the theory of entry deterrence in the context of an innovation shock. Specifically, this article investigates the extent to which within-niche product proliferation implemented by incumbents (firms already established in a submarket), their organizational...

Assessment Is Not Assurance: Recommendation Homogeneity, the Execution Gap, and the Limits of the Security Assessment Market in IT and OT

Organizations spend billions per year on recurring security assessments: compliance audits, risk and maturity assessments, penetration tests, and advisory engagements. This paper tests the premise that assessment produces protection against three bodies of evidence. First, an ori...

Putnam Problems Are Pedagogical, Not Unsolved Research Challenges — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Putnam competition content is pedagogical, not research-level; no unsolved problems exist within the competition itself — the "unsolved" framing refers to broader Millennium Problems (Perelman/Poincaré) and general math expositions. | MATH: No novel equations or constant...

Financial Literacy and Business Performance: Evidence from Rural Female Micro-Entrepreneurs in Khorezm, Uzbekistan

This study examines how distinct dimensions of financial literacy relate to the business performance of rural female micro-entrepreneurs in a transition economy. Drawing on the Resource-Based View, Human Capital Theory, and Entrepreneurial Capability Theory, financial literacy is...

The End of the Thermodynamic Limit: Finite Statistical Mechanics and Emergent Phase Transitions in a Discrete Substrate

Standard statistical mechanics and continuum thermodynamics rely entirely on the Thermodynamic Limit, the assumption that the number of particles → ∞ and volume → ∞ , to explain sharp phase transitions and macroscopic equilibrium. We propose a radical ontological shift: macroscop...

Mathematics as discovery: geometry of the intelligible

We present a geometric framework for understanding why mathematics feels like discovery, not invention. Drawing on the Metaphysic of the Intelligible, we show that mathematical creation is a projection from the ground through the Identity Tensor, guided by tensorial rules and dri...

Distinct constraints but shared dynamics shape the macroevolution of volatile organic compound chemodiversity

Complex metabolic systems have evolved across the tree of life, producing remarkable chemodiversity, yet the structure and evolutionary modes underlying this diversity remain poorly understood. Here, we investigate the macroevolution of chemodiversity using a comprehensive datase...
