International Prognostic Scoring System for Mastocytosis

The International Prognostic Scoring System for Mastocytosis (IPSM) risk score is prognostic of survival outcomes for patients with non-advanced and advanced systemic mastocytosis. The IPSM score for non-advanced systemic mastocytosis is based on age and alkaline phosphatase leve...

Surface Nucleation‐Mode Particles Increase During Intense Vertical Exchange Between the Atmospheric Boundary Layer and the Free Troposphere

Abstract Vertical exchange between the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) and the free troposphere (FT) is a key pathway for aerosol transport and can substantially influence surface air quality. In this study, an intense ABL‐FT exchange event over Shanghai on 29 March 2024 was cap...

Molecular Dynamics-Guided Triage of Approved Drugs Against Escherichia coli Resistance Targets Nominates Capmatinib, Metergoline and Nilotinib as Candidates for Experimental Testing

Virtual screening ranks compounds by scoring functions that correlate with molecular size, and hit lists are rarely benchmarked against compounds of established activity. We screened 2070 approved drugs against four Escherichia coli targets selected by pocket-druggability triage...

Thrust Ripple Suppression of Linear Permanent Magnet-Assisted Synchronous Reluctance Motor

The multilayer flux-barrier structure creates strong magnetic saliency in linear permanent magnet-assisted synchronous reluctance motors (PMa-SynRM-LMs). It offers high thrust density with a reduced permanent magnet volume, but it can also produce severe thrust ripple. This paper...

M15c The Calculus of Charts - Transport, Iteration and the Comma

The Theory of Operations studies arithmetic operations as members of structured rank hierarchies. An Aczél chart converts an associative operation into ordinary addition; a room is one level of the Symmetric Core obtained from an iterated-logarithm chart; the Transport Theorem ca...

Spatiotemporal Approach to Assess the Impact of Urbanization Policies on Urban Expansion and Sprawl Using Remote Sensing in Tiaret, Algeria

Abstract This study examines the spatial implications of urbanization policies on urban expansion and sprawl. While the shortcomings of urban containment policies have garnered considerable scholarly attention, policies promoting urbanization remain underexplored, with limited em...

Convexity of Inverse Blocking Curves in Loss Systems

Why Larger Service Systems Benefit More from Scale How much extra demand can a service system handle when capacity is increased while keeping the same target level of customer blocking? In the paper “Convexity of Inverse Blocking Curves in Loss Systems,” Benjamin Legros establish...

E8 Chiral Soliton Memory Conservation in Neural-Ferroelectric Phase Space — E8 Intelligence Research

The 240 E8 root vectors, when projected onto neural-ferroelectric phase space, form 30 chiral soliton pairs that encode memory consolidation as topological invariants—effectively creating a biological quantum error-correcting code immune to decoherence within φ-scaled resonance w...

Resilience Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Bridges in a Multihazard Environment of Flood and Corrosion

Abstract Extreme floods pose significant threats to bridges, specifically due to hydrodynamic forces on inundated bridge superstructures and foundation scour, which can cause excessive lateral deflection at the deck level and instability of bridges. Such bridge damage produces im...

Rapid Epicentral Distance and Magnitude Estimation via Collaborative Attention Network

ABSTRACT Rapid and reliable estimation of epicentral distance and magnitude are pivotal for damage assessment in earthquake early warning (EEW). However, conventional epicentral distance and magnitude estimation approaches for EEW rely primarily on manually defined features to co...

PHARMACOTHERAPY OF HEART FAILURE: A NARRATIVE REVIEW OF CONTEMPORARY GUIDELINE-DIRECTED DRUG THERAPY

Heart failure remains one of the most common, costly, and lethal cardiovascular msyndromes worldwide, affecting more than 64 million people globally and carrying a prognosis that is often worse than many forms of cancer. Over the past four decades, pharmacological management has...

Monograph 22 (Field-9): Iconographic Field Vectoring, Spatial Topology Protocols, and Inter-Faith Coherence Dynamics (Edition II)

This revised edition of Monograph 22 formalizes a mathematical field model governing sacred spatial topology, iconographic invariants, and sovereign empirical observation across diverse institutional domains. Dedicated in reverence to Maryam (peace be upon her), exemplar of purit...

Geometric Nature of Quantum Entanglement via Discrete Gear Linkage: Topological Resolution of Non-Locality and Bell's Inequalities

Quantum entanglement has challenged foundational physics since Albert Einstein famously characterized it as "spooky action at a distance." The apparent instantaneous collapse of spatial wavefunctions across spacelike intervals implies an unbridgeable rift between quantum non-loca...

Solar-Assisted IoT waste monitoring system with photovoltaic energy feasibility assessment

Internet of Things (IoT)-based waste monitoring systems are increasingly used to support smart and efficient waste management systems. However, many existing systems still depend on conventional batteries or grid power, which can increase maintenance requirements and limit outdoo...

Interfacial Cofactor Recycling Electroenzymatic Platform for Endergonic CO2 Reduction

Abstract To overcome the thermodynamic barrier of “NADH-dependent CO2 reduction”, we developed a bioelectrosynthesis platform via the co-immobilization of CO2 reductase (CR) and diaphorase (DP) on a graphite electrode. A strategic protein engineering approach, utilizing carbon-sp...

ENABLAR Partnership Building (facilitation materials)

Facilitation materials for the Partnership Building session of ENABLAR (ENABling Library and Archive participation in digital Research co-learning communities) a Jisc-funded project from Programming Historian that encourages participation and co-production to empower co-learning...

Patient-reported burden and adverse events of urodynamic investigation in adults with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction

Abstract Urodynamic investigation (UDI) is the gold standard for evaluating refractory lower urinary tract symptoms but may cause pain, emotional discomfort, and adverse events, particularly urinary tract infections. In this secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial, ad...

Clarifying Stratigraphic Terminology in Paleolithic Archaeology Using Natural Language Processing

Abstract Archaeological context is a foundational concept, yet its definition remains ambiguous and inconsistent. Traditionally, lithostratigraphic frameworks rooted in geology have long dominated, but recent computational and spatial approaches increasingly redefine stratigraphi...

The genome sequence of ivy broomrape, Orobanche hederae Duby (Lamiales: Orobanchaceae)

We present a genome assembly of Orobanche hederae (Ivy Broomrape; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Lamiales; Orobanchaceae). The assembly consists of two haplotypes with total lengths of 2,362.87 megabases and 2,355.77 megabases. Most of the haplotype 1 assembly (98.77%) was scaffold...

Twenty-four-hour mean blood pressure and variability combined improve the prognostic value of ambulatory blood pressure

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether adding 24-h blood pressure (BP) variability to 24-h mean BP improves the BP predictive value for cardiovascular and all-cause fatal outcomes. METHODS: In 1993, among individuals of the Pressioni Arteriose Monitorate E Loro Associazioni (PAMELA) pop...
