Abstract Background With a large proportion of adults in Canada vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2, it is important to identify who remain at risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes after primary vaccination/additional (booster) doses. Methods Adults (≥18 years) who received at least a prim...

An interactive online health risk assessment has been created to visualize the health risks associated with climate change at the district level (NUTS3) across Germany. The tool provides a comprehensive assessment by depicting both the current risk patterns and projected conditio...

Optimal placement of viscous dampers is essential for enhancing the seismic performance of high-rise buildings. In this study, we propose a target-oriented krill herd algorithm with a dynamic search mechanism (DTOKH) to optimize the placement of viscous dampers in high-rise build...

Globalization and Market Power
ABSTRACT We use a large episode of trade liberalization in Spain to test a rich set of channels linking trade and markups. The effect of reductions in import tariffs on firm‐level and aggregate markups is pro‐competitive, but there are offsetting effects via other channels. We sh...

Integrated metabolomics data analysis to generate mechanistic hypotheses with MetaProViz
ABSTRACT With the growing number of metabolomics and lipidomics studies, robust strategies for bioinformatic analyses are increasingly important. However, the absence of standardized and reproducible workflows, coupled with ambiguous metabolite annotations, hampers effective anal...

Sobre as perspectivas teórico-metodológicas da Agroecologia
This paper is a detailed characterization of the process of participatory research that develops the Agroecology. In this process, a dynamic generation of reflexivity is created, through methods and techniques employed in three different phases. In the first one (Ecological and P...

This text seeks to reflect on the trajectory of social mobilization for the construction of the notion of coexistence with the semi-arid, from the decade of 1990. The coexistence of the human being with his environment is an essential dimension of Agroecology, having as perspecti...

The starting point of this paper is the unfeasibility situation of the industrialized agriculture model and the dominant agro-food regime. Building a sustainable alternative is urgently needed. In the last decades, a great number of agroecological experiences have emerged which c...

ABSTRACT Structural and optical characterization of Eu 3+ doped atomically precise bismuth oxido nanoclusters (BiO‐NCs) of about 2 nm in size is reported. The BiO‐NC [Bi 38 O 45 (NO 3 ) 24 (dmso) 28 ]:Eu ( C‐1 D :Eu ) is transformed into soluble methacrylate ( − OMc) coordinated...

<title>Abstract</title> Phosphorus (P) use in agriculture remains inefficient and poses long-term environmental concerns. We investigate the uptake, redistribution, and efficacy of foliar-applied nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAp) in P-deficient barley (Hordeum vulgare), aiming to clarif...

Humphry Osmond coined the term ‘psychedelic’ in 1956, conjoining ‘psyche’ for ‘soul’ and ‘delic’ for ‘to manifest’ or ‘illuminate’. Soul-illumination is a compound noun that describes a psychological state or process. Osmond intended for it to be a taxonomic noun—naming, not just...

Disequilibrium between chloroplast proton motive force and ATP levels in Arabidopsis
Abstract Current dogma holds that CO 2 fixation by photosynthesis requires additional ATP production via PGR5-dependent cyclic electron transfer (PGR5-CET) to augment the NADPH and ATP produced by linear electron transfer (LET). Here we use the MgATP 2− fluorescent biosensor ATea...

Structural characteristics and mechanical properties of 2219 aluminum alloy DC A-TIG welding joints
Based on the direct-current active TIG welding（DC A-TIG welding）process of 2219 aluminum alloy, combined with engineering practice, three main parameters of welding current, welding speed, and rotation speed were selected for process testing. The significant changes in microstr...

The Human Experience Framework: Clinical Manual (Version 3.0)
This manual presents the Human Experience Framework (HEF), a neuroscience-grounded classification system for understanding human psychological suffering through the lens of predictive processing, primary affect systems, distributed functional brain networks, and somatic experienc...

Abstract We investigate the bilayer nickelates as a platform to realize the symmetric mass generation (SMG) insulator, a featureless Mott insulator that arises due to the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) anomaly cancellation in bilayer spin-1/2 lattice systems. Through a single-orbital...

From manual to semi-automatic semantic annotation: about ontology-based text annotation tools
Semantic Annotation is a basic technology for intelli- gent content and is beneficial in a wide range of content- oriented intelligent applications. In this paper we present our work in ontology-based semantic annotation, which is embedded in a scenario of a knowledge portal appl...

The consequences of the Fundamental Modular Region on the dynamics of an SU(N) Yang-Mills theory
In this article, we propose a Euclidean SU(N) Yang-Mills (YM) theory restricted to the Fundamental Modular Region (FMR) and show that, on a directed family of ``nice'' graphs, the FMR constraint is equivalent to a quartic, gauge-invariant lattice action admitting a Gaussian repre...
