Pathways to medication adherence: a configurational analysis of psychiatric symptoms and medication attitude in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorder receiving long-acting injectable antipsychotics

Medication non-adherence affects nearly half of patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorder and is associated with relapse and hospitalization. Long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotics may improve adherence, but their effectiveness likely depends on interactions between spec...

Association of a structured perioperative nursing intervention pathway with recovery and psychological outcomes in patients undergoing lumbar spine surgery: a non-concurrent controlled study

Degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) is a common condition associated with pain, functional limitation, and psychological distress. Although lumbar fusion surgery can relieve symptoms, postoperative recovery may be influenced by perioperative nursing care. This study aimed...

The Theory of Relational Evaluation in Compounding Systems (RECS): The Boundary-Value Paradox

This paper presents the formal mathematical and structural framework for the Theory of Relational Evaluation in Compounding Systems (RECS), introducing the Boundary-Value Paradox. Conventional analytics evaluate compounding growth sequences through absolute value metrics over tim...

Eukaryotic Awakening: The Abiogenesis Renaissance — The Primordial Signal, SMOOK Modulation, and Stellar Proto‑Cells

Forget warm ponds and happy little chemical accidents. Life isn't a terrestrial fluke—it's a cosmic collision of stellar violence and electrical hunger. Discover the mechanism where molten planets scream their Primordial Signals, stellar ejecta drop empty proto-cell "ova" into ra...

Space and the Point

Author’s publication name: Max Scenner (Alexander Neretin). This philosophical and methodological study examines the conditions under which a point may be recognized as an admissible element of spatial description. The study challenges the conventional treatment of the point as a...

EXPLORING THE CHARACTERISTICS AND DRIVERS OF INFORMAL WATERFRONT SETTLEMENTS IN PORT-HARCOURT METROPOLIS, NIGERIA

The characteristics and the drivers of informal waterfront settlements in Port-Harcourt Metropolis were examined in this study using both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Data were collected on socio-economic, physical and environmental characteristics, perceived risk ass...

Protecting the Thinking Process in Human-AI Interaction: The Forum Interstitiale Between Thought and Expression

International human rights law protects freedom of thought absolutely and freedom of expression subject to limitation. Doctrine calls the two sides of that line the forum internum and the forum externum. The line was drawn when thinking left no trace. It no longer holds. Within s...

Low-Dimensional Thresholds and Optimal Weighted-Shift Bounds for the Aluthge Transform

Let \(A=U|A|\) be a complex matrix and let \(\Delta_\lambda(A)=|A|^\lambda U|A|^{1-\lambda}\), \(0<\lambda<1\), be its \(\lambda\)-Aluthge transform. Huang and Tam conjectured that the Frobenius norm of the self-commutator is contractive under \(\Delta_\lambda\). Following Zhang'...

Corporate Sustainability and Financial Performance: The Role of Eco-Friendly Product Lines

The paradigm of international trade has drastically changed in favor of sustainable development in recent years. Stakeholders are putting more and more pressure on companies to implement green practices as environmental degradation becomes a major worldwide problem. This conceptu...

Demonstration of Hyperluminal Velocities in Photonic Etherons

This paper analyses the hypothesis of a composite nature of the photon within the MODEC (Double-Helical Model of the Photon) [1] demonstrating that its two constituent etherons (in accordance with the Subtle Particle Model, SPM) [2] are characterized by hyperluminal kinematic dyn...

What’s historical about historical IR? narrativity, the philosophy of history and world order studies

Historical International Relations (HIR) represents a growing subfield within the wider discipline, offering a ‘history-first’ approach, lessening the grip of more theory and/or methods-driven scholarship. But this raises questions over the underlying philosophy guiding HIR schol...

Constraining the Primordial Intergalactic Magnetic Field in Cosmic Voids with the Density-Weighted Ariza Length

We introduce the density-weighted Ariza length, a line-of-sight integral over cosmic voids weighted by their dynamical depth, as a target-selection criterion for searches of the primordial intergalactic magnetic field and axion-like particles. Deeper voids host less dynamo activi...

Statistical Structure of the Historical Orderings of the I Ching Hexagrams: Pair Rule, Family Gradient, and the Limits of Demonstrability

The King Wen sequence orders the 64 hexagrams of the I Ching in an arrangement that has resisted explanation for three millennia. We present a statistical comparison of the three historical orderings (King Wen, Mawangdui, Jing Fang) against the binary ordering and against one ano...

One Medium: The Common Origin of the Maxwell, Dirac and Einstein Equations in the Octet-Hopfion Condensate

A companion synthesis of The BCT Superfluid Lattice Model. We show that Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism, the Dirac equation of relativistic quantum matter, and Einstein's field equations of gravitation — conventionally postulated as independent starting points — arise tog...

Tensor Invariants and Integral Theorems — Made Understandable (lecture notes)

Short introductory notes for university students on the unified system of tensor invariants. The many formulas of a vector analysis course – grad, div, rot, the Gauss and Stokes theorems, the Laplacian, the Green identities, Maxwell's equations – are in fact different faces of a...

The Unified System of Tensor Invariants — Complete Teaching Edition

This edition contains everything the academic article does – the full five-dimensional invariant table, all theorems, the ideas behind the proofs and the research directions – but in teaching language: before every formula it states what the formula will claim and why it is true....

Proceedings of the 42th National Gastroenterology Week

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Various studies have investigated the effects of abdominal massage (AM) and aerobic exercise training (AET) in managing functional constipation (FC). These studies have shown that both AM and AET alone have beneficial effects on FC. However, to the author’s knowl...

Sector-Switching Curl on the Klein Bottle — numerical verification report

Verification of the sharp statement formulated at the meeting point of the tensor-invariant system (jet/jad/dev) and the Möbius-Klein transform framework: on the Klein bottle the curl of a genuine (sigma-equivariant) vector field lives in the other sector (it is a twisted scalar)...

The complete singular-value spectrum of a twisted commutator with a rank-one factor and an application to the weighted Böttcher–Wenzel inequality

Let \(D\) be positive definite Hermitian and let \(T_X:Y\mapsto XDY-YDX\) be the associated twisted commutator on \(M_n(\mathbb C)\) with the Frobenius norm. For a rank-one factor \(X=\sigma uv^*\), an orthogonal block decomposition gives the exact operator norm \[\lVert T_X\rVer...

One Twist, Two Views — the connection between the tensor-invariant system and the Möbius–Klein transform

Two independently built frameworks – the unified tensor-invariant system of vector analysis (jet/jad/dev operators, dimensional ladder) and the spectral theory of non-orientable surfaces (Möbius and Klein transforms, sector decomposition) – rest on a single common actor: orientat...
