Acyclic Component Hypotheses for Total Cut Complexes of Disconnected Graphs

Let G be a finite simple graph with k nonempty connected components and n vertices, and let d be at least 2. We prove that if k is at least d and every relevant component total-cut complex is void or integer-acyclic, then the total d-cut complex of G is homotopy equivalent to a w...

This presentation are the slides for a one-day capacity building course for Trade Unions or Non-Governmental Organizations concernig bias in AI technology and applications with a special focus on the labor market. It is the culmination of the interdisciplinary research in the BIA...

Bottom-Hole Pressure Optimization in Marine-Continental Transitional Shale Gas Reservoir Considering Stress Sensitivity

Abstract The bottom-hole pressure (BHP) directly affects the stress state in formation, which in turn affects the productivity of hydraulically fractured horizontal wells. In this study, the porosity and permeability stress sensitivity experiments were conducted on different mari...

Sensitive research in post-colonial India: reflections from Kashmir

Although Western research methodologies of conducting sensitive research allow a flexible field engagement, understandings of sensitive research largely focus on risks to participants, i.e., both t...

Biphasic Hierarchical Reorganization and Riemannian Connectomic Plasticity: A Longitudinal Precision Functional Mapping Study of Psilocybin

Independent secondary computational research conducted on open-access longitudinal fMRI data (OpenNeuro ds006072). Preprint deposited on Zenodo. Full reproducible Riemannian pipeline available on GitLab.

Extending the Vertically Reflected Exponentiated Hyperbolic Tangent Detection Function for Grouped Line‐Transect Data

ABSTRACT Accurate estimation of population density in distance sampling depends critically on the choice of detection function. Conventional models such as the half‐normal (HN) and hazard‐rate (HR) functions may perform poorly when the underlying detection structure is complex, p...

“Beyond the Glass Facade ”: occupational social work perspective on shopping mall workers

This study examines the psychosocial risks experienced by shopping mall workers and explores implications for occupational social work practice. A qualitative research design was employed, involving in-depth interviews with 31 shopping mall workers in Istanbul. Data were analysed...

No Validity Without Reliability: Measurement in Relationship Science, 1994–2024

ABSTRACT Measurement reliability is necessary for validity and foundational to theory, inference, and cumulative knowledge in relationship science, yet concerns about questionable measurement practices persist. We examined long‐term trends in measurement reliability and reporting...

Unilateral Balance, Muscular Strength, Foot Arch Status, and Physical Performance in Young Adults with and Without Low Back Pain

Background/Objectives: Low back pain (LBP) is a major cause of disability worldwide. In Saudi Arabia, research has predominantly focused on its prevalence and associated risk factors, with comparatively limited evidence directly comparing balance, muscular strength, foot characte...

Colorectal Centre of Excellence (COCOE) Registry: A protocol for a prospective longitudinal cohort of children with Hirschsprung's disease and anorectal malformations in Canada

Hirschsprung's disease (HD) and anorectal malformations (ARM) are congenital colorectal conditions requiring lifelong multidisciplinary care, yet no prospective, longitudinal registry exists for affected children in Canada. We describe the protocol for the COCOE Registry, the fir...

Combined Orbital Decompression and Rectus Muscle Myectomy for Large-Angle Strabismus in Thyroid-Associated Orbitopathy

Thyroid-associated orbitopathy (TAO) often causes restrictive strabismus and diplopia. Large-angle deviations pose particular challenges owing to extraocular muscle fibrosis and unpredictable surgical dose–response. Although combined orbital decompression and strabismus correctio...
