Phenology-adaptive machine learning for early mapping of field-scale corn crop yield using fusion of Sentinel-2 satellite spectral imagery, and weather-based accumulated heat units

Abstract Purpose Timely, accurate, and field-scale crop yield mapping is essential for precision crop management, yet most existing studies rely on late- or full-season data, limiting in-season decision-making. This study aims to develop a stage-aware earliest possible corn yield...

Pharmacological interventions targeting cognition and related clinical outcomes in vascular dementia: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Abstract Purpose Randomized evidence for pharmacological interventions in vascular dementia (VaD) is fragmented. We conducted a VaD-focused, scale-specific systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods We searched four databases for English-language parallel-group randomized contr...

Periodic Two-Letter Ringsets in the Lipschitz Quaternions: The General Odd-Period Classification

Let L be the ring of Lipschitz quaternions and let w: Z to {i,j} be a periodic binary word of arbitrary odd period m. This manuscript proves that the set S_w={a+w(a):a in Z} is a ringset if and only if w is nonconstant and, for every prime p dividing m with p congruent to 3 modul...

The genome sequence of the Bordered Beauty, Epione repandaria (Hufnagel, 1767) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae)

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Epione repandaria (Bordered Beauty; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence has a total length of 848.25 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.82%) is scaffolded into 29 chromosomal pseudomolecules,...

CHARGE WITHOUT CHARGE: THE TRANS-BRANE MASS-ASYMMETRY RULE AND NUCLEON STRUCTURE (XIV v4)

The standard model of particle physics treats electric charge, quark flavor, and lepton number as independent, fundamental quantum numbers. In the Folded Crunch Dipole – Reversed Big Bang (FCD-RBv4) pregeometric framework, we propose that the two observed light quark modes — up a...

Coupled-Channel Quantum Tunneling with an Additional Confined Coordinate

This exploratory preprint studies a controlled quantum-scattering toy model with an additional harmonically confined coordinate w. It compares a fixed-width one-dimensional barrier, the exact shrinking observable slice V(x,0), and the full coupled (x,w) Hamiltonian. The identical...

The Current State of Robotic Pancreas Surgery: A Review of the Evolving Landscape and Future Directions

Abstract Purpose of Review Surgical and technological advances have led to the increased adoption of robotic techniques for pancreatic surgery. In this review we aim to provide an overview of the current evidence for robotic intervention in pancreatic surgery. Recent Findings Cli...

The Holographic Entropy Reversal Principle: Geometric Extraction on 7D Motivic Manifolds

The Holographic Entropy Reversal Principle: Geometric Extraction on 7D Motivic Manifolds --- Abstract & Core Description This suite formalizes continuous geometric extraction to achieve zero-heat-waste equilibrium on compact 7-dimensional Riemannian manifolds (\bm{\mathcal{M}^7})...

Adaptive droop control strategy for minimization of circulating current and effective power sharing in DC microgrid

Purpose The reliable integration of multiple renewable energy sources into autonomous DC microgrid requires effective power sharing to ensure stable operation. Conventional droop control schemes often face issues, such as loop current sharing and inadequate voltage regulation. Th...

Reception and Assessment of Immigrant Children and Families Seeking US Humanitarian Protection: Upholding the Best Interest of the Child: Policy Statement

Unaccompanied migrant children and families seeking humanitarian protection face health and well-being risks throughout the migration journey. US immigration policies and enforcement practices that subject children and families to detention and separation compound these risks. Gr...

Isotopic and geochemical constraints on lithium enrichment in basinal brines of the Montney Formation, Western Canada Sedimentary Basin

Abstract Significant lithium (Li) resources have been discovered in sedimentary basin brines across North America, including the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. Although the basin’s geology is well characterized through decades of hydrocarbon development, the origin and distrib...

The Psychiatric Y2K Bug: Delayed Apophenia and the Epidemic of Ideological Contagion in the Algorithmic Era

"This paper bypasses traditional academic summarization. It is a raw conceptual package delivered directly to the global ecosystem to be validated, dissected, or refuted."

Gravitational Screening as the Macroscopic Signature of Trans-Brane Dipolar Tension (XI v4)

Within the FCD-RB framework, the fundamental physical entity is the trans-brane fermionantifermion dipole connecting a visible-matter brane and a mirror-antimatter brane through a non-traversable Einstein–Rosen (ER) bridge, with rest mass identified as the tension stored in that...

IMPROVEMENT OF THE SURGICAL APPROACH TO THE TREATMENT OF CRANIOVERTEBRAL JUNCTION ANOMALIES ASSOCIATED WITH SPINAL MALFORMATIONS (CLINICAL EXPERIENCE)

Craniovertebral junction (CVJ) anomalies are complex and rare disorders that require precise diagnostic evaluation and individualized treatment strategies. We report a rare case of Arnold–Chiari II malformation with basilar invagination, secondary hydrocephalus, and closed spinal...

Spontaneous tumors in dogs and cats in Algeria: a dual-source descriptive study of practitioner-reported patterns and histopathology-submitted cases

Abstract Background Algeria has no documented national companion-animal cancer registry, and limited information is available on tumors encountered in veterinary practice or reaching histopathological confirmation. This dual-source descriptive study combined two independently ana...

Craniovertebral junction (CVJ) anomalies are complex and rare disorders that require precise diagnostic evaluation and individualized treatment strategies. We report a rare case of Arnold–Chiari II malformation with basilar invagination, secondary hydrocephalus, and closed spinal...

Beyond Efficacy: Sustaining Environmental Disinfection During Filovirus Disease Outbreaks in Conflict-affected, Resource-limited Settings

Abstract Purpose of Review Filoviruses, including Bundibugyo virus, spread through contact with body fluids and with surfaces and materials soiled by those fluids, so environmental disinfection is central to infection prevention and control (IPC). This review reframes filovirus d...

Non-Objects in the Ontology of EFOS: Typology, Status, and Relational Nature

This article presents a systematic description of non-objects – entities that do not fit into the simple distinction of "objects vs subjects" within the ontology of EFOS (Entity That Forming Objects and Subjects). Non-objects are defined as entities that, at a given moment (for a...
