The relationship between meteorological factors and influenza seasonality is well-established in temperate regions but remains complex and less understood in subtropical climates. This study investigates the association between key weather variables and influenza-like illness (IL...

Abstract Mobile genetic elements drive horizontal gene transfer (HGT), which may have contributed to the functional diversity of termite gut microbiomes, although the environmental determinants of these processes remain poorly understood. Our proposed model integrates spatially r...

Abstract Gyrate atrophy is a rare autosomal recessive chorioretinal dystrophy caused by ornithine aminotransferase deficiency, resulting in toxic accumulation of plasma ornithine and progressive retinal degeneration. We describe a 20-year-old male, born to consanguineous parents,...

Abstract The role of nickel migration from carbon nanofiber (CNF) supports to the active MoS2 phase was systematically investigated for higher alcohol synthesis (HAS) from syngas. A series of K-promoted MoS2 catalysts with varying nickel loadings (0–5 wt %) was prepared on CNF su...

The politics of polarization: strategic issue emphasis in campaigns
This paper examines electoral competition through a formal model in which parties seek voter support by raising the salience of policy issues. Using this framework, the analysis asks whether parties are more likely to emphasize issues marked by divisions among voters but agreemen...

Biogeochemical Control of Hydrogen–Iron Minerals Interfacial Chemistry in Subsurface Energy Systems
Abstract Microbial processes are increasingly recognized as critical modifiers of solid–fluid interfaces in subsurface systems; however, their role in hydrogen–mineral interfacial chemistry remains poorly constrained. Here, we demonstrate that microbial colonization fundamentally...

A Passive Causal Memory Model for the Central Peak in SrTiO₃
The cubic-to-tetragonal transition of SrTiO₃ exhibits a narrow central component near the antiferrodistortive wave vector while the associated soft phonon can retain a finite oscillation frequency. We formulate a minimal dynamical mechanism in which that phonon is linearly couple...
- AI & ComputingOpen access
Sequential recommendation (SR) aims to predict users’ next interactions by modeling contextual patterns in their historical behavior sequences. Recent advancements in SR introduce multi-interest models that use multiple vectors to represent users’ diverse interests. However, exis...

Sibling Relationship Scale For Emerging Adults: Turkish Adaptation and Validation Study
The development of sibling relationships across the life course can be context and culture specific. The current study aimed to adapt and validate a new measure of sibling relationship quality the Emerging Adults’ Relationship with Sibling Scale (EARSS) to assess Turkish emerging...

Cardiac complications are common and clinically significant in COVID-19, yet their underlying molecular drivers remain poorly understood. Here, we integrate post-mortem histopathology with transcriptomic and microRNA (miRNA) analyses to delineate the regulatory architecture of SA...

Abstract Methanol steam reforming over Pt-based catalysts is a promising route for on-board hydrogen production, yet its deployment is severely limited by undesired CO formation from conventional *CO-mediated pathways. Herein, we systematically elucidate the structure−selectivity...

Who considers alternative employment pathways among International Medical Graduates in Canada?
This study aims to examine which International Medical Graduates (IMGs) consider alternative employment pathways in Canada. IMGs are physicians whose country of practice differs from the country where they obtained their primary medical qualification. Due to the limitations and u...
