Effect of Sun Glints from Ice Clouds on MODIS Data Products

This paper examines the way sun glints from horizontally oriented ice crystals that occur in clouds impact atmospheric data products provided by the Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). For this, the paper presents a statistical analysis of two years of MODIS da...

The afterlives of the ‘migration crisis’ and its hidden labours: Ukrainian displacement post-2022

Migration has become increasingly synonymous with ‘crisis’. Drawing on longitudinal ethnographic fieldwork with Ukrainian nationals in Warsaw (2020–2025), this article asks what ‘crisis times’ mean for migration research methodologically and what remains obscured when forced disp...

Positional Isomerism: A Molecular Switch for Substantial Modulation of Polymer Mechanics

Abstract Positional isomerism, a universal structural regulation strategy in nature, achieves precise control over biological functions through minute variations in substituent positions on a molecular backbone. Despite its extensive application in small-molecule chemistry, the s...

Installation Personas: A Persona-Centered Framework for AI-Driven Interactive Art Installations

Artificial intelligence (AI) is enabling interactive art installations to become increasingly adaptive and socially interactive, yet limited conceptual guidance exists for analyzing installations themselves as persona-like entities. In this study, the Installation Persona Framewo...

Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Birth Weight Measurement Precision

This cross-sectional study explores whether digit preference in neonatal care is associated with racial and ethnic disparities in birth weight measurement.

Clinical Ethics Framework for Last‐Minute Pediatric Refusal of Anesthesia Induction

Induction of anesthesia is one of the most distressing moments for pediatric patients during their perioperative experience. They may consequently refuse induction at the last minute. Anesthesia providers are then placed in a challenging ethical dilemma: they must seek to gain th...

Selective γ8 transmembrane α‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐4‐isoxazolepropionic acid receptor regulatory protein negative allosteric modulators: Efficacy in preclinical antiseizure models

Abstract Objective RAP‐219, a potent selective negative allosteric modulator (NAM) of α‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐4‐isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) associated with γ8 transmembrane AMPAR regulatory protein (TARPγ8), is in phase 3 development for refractory focal epilepsy....

Renal stress-associated extracellular vesicle signaling linked to lysosomal cathepsin D and NEK7–NLRP3 neuroinflammation

Abstract Systemic exposure to neurotoxins such as 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) affects both the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral organs; however, the contribution of peripheral organ stress to neuroinflammation remains incompletely understood. He...

Scattered Educational Videos and One Lattice Paper: No Unified Discovery — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: The search results are a scattered collection of educational videos and one lattice-QCD paper, with no unified mathematical discovery; the only substantive mathematical content is the definition of distributive lattices and the existence of polynomial-time reductions in...
