Background/Objectives: To compare perioperative, pathological, functional, and oncological outcomes of robot-assisted radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava tumor thrombectomy (RARN-TT) versus open (ORN-TT) and laparoscopic (LRN-TT) approaches. Methods: PubMed, Scopus, and W...

Piezocatalytic advanced oxidation has been regarded as a promising and low energy cost strategy for water decontamination. Bi 2 Fe 4 O 9 (BFO) has been identified as a promising piezocatalyst due to its impressive ferroelectricity, but the low carrier separation efficiency limits...

Objective: While advancements in radiotherapy and systemic agents have significantly improved survival rates in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), managing long-term, treatment-induced toxicities remains a critical clinical challenge. This study aimed to develop a per...

This paper presents a systematic decoupling framework for strongly coupled two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) nonlinear vibration systems. Here, the coupling is classified as strong rather than weak because the cross-mode interaction terms in the governing equations (e.g., the x 2 y-,...

Preregistration: confirmatory test of cross-genealogical form recurrence at length 3 (FORMFIRST)
Hypothesis. Among 20 confirmatory genealogical axis units (116 languages), pronunciation forms of three segments recur identically across at least three genealogically independent units less often than each unit's own phonotactics predicts: obs/E < 1.0 at form length 3. The direc...

IDEA: Adjustment made to the live model — verify against the backtests: Apply filter: Phase distance FAR (>10deg) — improves win rate from 31.6% to 32.3% (+0.7pp, n=669) SAME-WINDOW EFFECT: Applying the phase distance FAR (>10deg) filter to the current live window would have reje...

ABSTRACT In our previous work, a fully bio‐based flame retardant (PALA) was synthesized from phytic acid and L‐arginine and applied to Lyocell fabric, significantly enhancing its flame retardancy and washing durability. This study further develops a one‐bath synergistic process i...

Time, Space, and Physical Constants as Emergent from an Information-Theoretic Substrate
We develop an information-theoretic substrate \(S=(X,\sim,I,T)\) as a working theory of ordered emergence: a state space \(X\), a coarse-graining equivalence \(\sim\), an information measure \(I\), and a transition structure \(T\) that respects preservation bounds \(I(T(x))\ge\rh...

Bisphenols (BPs) are widespread environmental endocrine disruptors, but their potential depression-related neurotoxicity has not been systematically assessed. Here, we combined machine learning (ML), network toxicology, molecular docking, and in vivo experiments to screen 26 bisp...

Introduction: Improving adult pneumococcal vaccination is a public-health priority in Romania, and evidence regarding patient-level outcomes following different approaches to physician training remains limited. Materials and methods: This non-randomised, multicentre, quasi-experi...

Evicting the Usurpers and Reclaiming the Warp and Weft
This position paper critiques the contemporary fine art world’s commercial appropriation and systemic devaluation of traditional textile craft. Across major institutions and galleries, fabric is increasingly displayed not to honor the medium, but to monetize anonymous, highly ski...

Nitidine chloride (NC) is a natural alkaloid that inhibits tumor proliferation and induces apoptosis in tumor cells. However, the role of NC in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains unclear. We aimed to explore the effects of NC on the proliferation, apoptosis, and mi...

Persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism syndrome (PIICS) is a severe complication in critically ill patients, accompanied by profound disturbances in lipid metabolism. However, the sequential changes in these lipoproteins and apolipoproteins and their associati...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) profoundly disrupts motor output while also reshaping central motor systems. Motor imagery (MI) provides a valuable window into retained motor-related neural processes because it enables investigation of covert motor state generation in the absence of ove...

This working preprint develops a canonical continuum bridge between the finite twisted-shell construction introduced in Twisted Shell Topology and Spectral Closure and the primitive stability response derived in The Chronos Stability Coordinate x. The construction begins with fou...

This paper addresses the computational challenges of the covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMA-ES) in high-dimensional optimization of an objective function \(f:\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R}\) where \(n\gg 100\) , particularly for problems exhibiting sparse-sensitivi...

Background Patients with disabilities, such as those are visually impaired (VI), require an individualised approach to care by pharmacists. However, disability awareness training is not widely implemented across modern pharmacy curricula. To address this gap, a workshop was devel...

DECISION: REJECT ELEMENT: Phase distance TIGHT (≤2°) filter does not survive hostile scrutiny. The claimed +3.6pp win-rate improvement (n=392) is statistically marginal (z ≈ 1.14, p ≈ 0.25) — not significant at 95% confidence. The backtest sample is too small and likely regime-bi...

Interaction Between Cereals and Pea Intercrops During Their Initial Development
The species that make up the intercrop interact with each other during their development, which can be beneficial, harmful, or indifferent to the participants. The aim of this study was to determine whether the developmental differences observed between intercropped and pure stan...
