Association of Long-Term Residentially Assigned Speciated Atmospheric Mercury Emission Flux with All-Cause and Cause-Specific Mortality

Abstract Mercury (Hg) is a persistent global pollutant, but population evidence on residentially assigned species-specific atmospheric Hg emission flux and mortality is limited. We analyzed UK Biobank cohorts for all-cause/other-cause (N = 322,666), cardiovascular disease (N = 34...

Global Incidence of All-Cause Dementia

Importance Global dementia incidence estimates are limited by underrepresentation of low- and middle-income countries and heterogeneous analytic methods. Due to these limitations, true understanding of the global dementia landscape remains incomplete. Objective To identify dement...

Largest Acylindrical Actions for Artin Groups under a Strict Triple Condition

Let A_S be a finitely generated Artin group such that the sum of the reciprocals of the three labels on every triple of generators is strictly less than one, with 1/infinity = 0. This note records a direct consequence of the Martin-Przytycki coned-off Deligne construction and the...

ONTOLOGY OF DISTRACTION: FOMO AND THE CRISIS OF THE SUBJECT IN POE'S "THE MAN OF THE CROWD"

This paper investigates the phenomenon of the "fear of missing out" (FOMO) as an ontological and existential structure of the subject, proceeding from an interpretation of Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Man of the Crowd." Although FOMO is most commonly understood in contempor...

When the Auto-Bid Channel Replaces the Baseline: Baseline Flexibility, Experiment Calibration, and the Return Meridian Reports for a Performance-Chased Channel

Platform auto-bidding sets a channel's budget from recent conversions, so the channel's spend tracks demand. On a third-party synthetic benchmark with endogenous spend (Heusch, arXiv:2608.21130), Meridian 2.0.0 was fitted across the benchmark's budgeting mechanisms at five seeds,...

Molten Salt Alcohols: A New Class of Organic Solvents for Carbohydrate Dissolution and Isomerization

Abstract Carbohydrate conversion in alcoholic solvents offers unique selectivity; however, poor carbohydrate solubility limits its practical applications. Herein, we demonstrate that salt–alcohol–carbohydrate interactions in molten salt alcohol (MSA) solvents enhance both carbohy...

Same Orbit Implies Same Response: Strict Boundaries of Response Equivalence in Quantum Graph Heisenberg Models

In quantum many-body systems, the response of a defect is often determined by its position: two edges give the same response when they belong to the same edge automorphism orbit. We ask whether different orbits can also give the same response. We study the isotropic Heisenberg mo...

Navigating Wicked Problems in Project Contexts: Adaptive Leadership as a Theoretical Lens for Understanding Project Managers’ Practices

This study examined how project managers navigate wicked problem dynamics in project environments with ambiguous problem definitions, contested stakeholder interests, evolving constraints, and no definitive solutions. Drawing on eight nested discussion sessions comprising 24 smal...

Dual-Regulation of Interfacial Polymerization via Interlayer and Surfactant: Molecular Dynamics Insights and High-Performance Mg2+/Li+ Separation Nanofiltration Membrane

Abstract A polyamide nanofiltration (NF) membrane with high permeance and Mg2+/Li+ selectivity was developed through a dual regulation strategy combining a tannic acid (TA) and Al3+ coordination interlayer with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Molecular dynamics simulations showed t...

Diamond Framework: Reputation-Weighted Validator Selection via Verifiable Non-Transferable Reputation

Proof-of-stake secures admission and deterrence with a single instrument, financial capital, and that is the source of its structural tension: high collateral requirements deter honest but capital-constrained validators, low requirements expose the network to Sybil attacks. The D...

Subperiosteal hematoma of the ilium in adolescent athletes with acute groin pain: clinical and MRI features of a radiograph-occult injury pattern

Subperiosteal hematoma of the ilium is an uncommon MRI finding in young athletes with acute groin pain and is frequently occult on plain radiographs. This study aimed to characterize its clinical presentation, MRI findings, associated injuries, and return-to-sport outcomes. This...

Regenerating Rural Futures Through Climate-Smart Agriculture Innovations: A Systems Perspective on Building Climate Resilience, Food Security and Inclusive Rural Prosperity in Nigeria

Rural Nigeria stands at a defining crossroads. Although agriculture remains central to national food security, employment and rural livelihoods, the ecological, economic and institutional systems that sustain agricultural production are under increasing pressure. Climate variabil...

Depth control of a biomimetic mantis shrimp underwater robot using a gas-driven variable buoyancy system and ESO-BSMC

Biomimetic underwater robots have broad application prospects in marine resource exploration, environmental monitoring, and operations in complex waters. However, the compact structure, limited payload capacity, and restricted energy reserves of small biomimetic underwater robots...

Comparative Biomechanical Evaluation of SDS and Nobel Ceramic Dental Implant Systems in Type II Artificial Bone: An In Vitro Study

Ceramic dental implants have been proposed as metal-free alternatives to titanium implants. This in vitro study compared the biomechanical measurements and drilling-related surface temperatures of two commercial ceramic implant systems with different dimensions and drilling proto...

Recrystallization Behavior of MgAl Layered Double Hydroxide Films on Anodized Magnesium Alloys During Phytic Acid Loading

MgAl layered double hydroxides (LDHs) films were prepared via an in-situ growth method on anodized AZ31 magnesium alloy. Subsequently, phytic acid (PA) was loaded as a corrosion inhibitor through an anion-exchange process. The structural evolution of the LDHs nanosheets during th...
