The rapid growth in the volume, variety, and velocity of geospatial data has created data ecosystems that are highly distributed, heterogeneous, and semantically inconsistent. Existing data catalogs, portals, and infrastructures rely largely on keyword-based search with limited s...

Pattern Formation in a Spatial Public Goods Dilemma due to Diffusive or Directed Motion
Abstract The costly provision of public goods serves as a model problem for the evolution of cooperative behavior, presenting a social dilemma between the collective benefits of shared resources and the individual incentive to free-ride in resource production. The spatial structu...

Abstract Urbanisation is reshaping mammalian communities worldwide, yet forest specialists are generally considered poor urban adapters. The pine marten Martes martes , for long regarded as an indicator of intact woodlands, has recently shown signs of expansion into human-modifie...

ABSTRACT Chromatin organization regulates genome stability and gene expression by controlling DNA accessibility to transcription factors and regulatory complexes. DNA-protein interactions are commonly investigated using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), which relies on specif...

Abstract Background and aim : Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a well-established precancerous condition in the gastric carcinogenesis cascade. Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is the primary etiological factor for CAG; however, the differential impact of Hp virulence types...

Abstract Background Forests are intrinsically resilient to natural disturbances but can be vulnerable to anthropogenic impacts (e.g. fires and harvesting), especially in high latitude temperate ecosystems. Changes in the natural dynamic pathways can lead to changes in the ecosyst...

Hypoadiponectinemia does not enhance anxiety-like behaviour in a lean PCOS-like mouse model
Abstract Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is characterized by reproductive and metabolic disturbances and is associated with increased symptoms of anxiety and depression. Circulating adiponectin, an insulin-sensitizing adipokine, is reduced in women with PCOS, and low adiponectin...

Three-dimensional magnetotelluric Bayesian inversion based on Stein variational gradient descent
Summary To address the challenge of assessing the reliability of three-dimensional (3D) magnetotelluric (MT) inversion results, we have developed a variational inference (VI) inversion framework (VI-MT) based on the Stein Variational Gradient Descent (SVGD) method. Through parall...

Abstract Background Understanding population dynamics is fundamental to predicting species persistence and extinction, yet remains challenging due to the complex interplay between ecological, environmental and anthropogenic factors. Population dynamics are regulated by intrinsic...

Optimized future floating wind turbines (FWTs) are expected to be both larger and relatively lighter than conventional offshore platforms, thus more flexible. The common practice of modeling the platform as a rigid body in coupled dynamic simulations of FWTs can then be questione...

Enhancement of Circular Dichroism in Chiral Dielectric Metasurfaces by Ion Beam Irradiation
ABSTRACT Resonant chiral dielectric metasurfaces can support circular dichroism exceeding that of natural materials, but their small dissipative losses simultaneously limit the maximization of circular dichroism, which inherently relies on absorption. Importantly, while the condi...

Van Aert and Van Assen (2026; https://doi.org/10.3758/s13423-025-02812-4) introduced a novel method called p-uniform* for estimating average effect size in meta-analyses subject to publication bias. They characterized the method as a distinct, more parsimonious model than the wel...

Abstract Background Gluteal augmentation has become increasingly popular in aesthetic surgery, with fat grafting, implants, and fillers as the main techniques. Objectives This study aims to assess the methodological rigor of available reviews using AMSTAR-2 and to explore associa...

ABSTRACT This work presents the development of a numerical model based on the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method to simulate the rotational molding process of powder thermoplastic polymers, used in the manufacture of liners for high‐pressure hydrogen tanks. Rotational m...

Impact of financial knowledge and confidence on investment risk tolerance of Egyptian individuals
The paper seeks to examine the effect of both subjective and objective financial knowledge on investment risk tolerance of Egyptian individuals. The findings indicate that objective financial knowledge has insignificant impact, but subjective financial knowledge has a positive an...

A global framework to estimate urban spatial cycling patterns based on crowdsourced data
Cycling is a cornerstone of a sustainable mobility transition in cities. Cycling research depends on the data available, but it has been difficult to produce or access these data in comparable ways. Sports tracking platforms like Strava have been transformative in mass-tracking c...

The Source of Arctic Precipitation in HadGEM3‐GC5
Abstract Snow and rain are increasing in the Arctic. Climate model projections indicate a 50% increase in precipitation by the end of the century. This increase is driven by increased local evaporation following reduced sea ice coverage alongside enhanced global evaporation and t...

BACKGROUND: The role of immune checkpoint B7-H3 in acute ischemic stroke prognosis and poststroke immunosuppression remains uninvestigated, despite the clinical significance of immune checkpoints with inflammaging and poststroke infections. In this study, we investigated the effe...

Health impacts of climate change on children and adolescents: an umbrella review
This umbrella review synthesized evidence from existing reviews on the impacts of climate change on children's and adolescents' health, identified vulnerability factors, and evaluated available public health interventions.

Abstract Background Diabetic ketoacidosis is frequently accompanied by systemic inflammatory responses that complicate the early identification of bacterial infection. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 158 adult patients admitted with diabetic ketoacidosis and evaluated the dia...
