The cost of isolation. Examining the impact of workplace ostracism on employees' extra-role behaviors

Purpose Drawing from the conservation of resources (COR) theory, this study explores workplace ostracism's impact on employees' extra-role behaviors through the mediation of thriving at work and organization-based self-esteem (OBSE). Further analysis was conducted in order to exa...

Loss Function of ClARF4 Reduces Plant Height and Cell Size in Watermelon

Auxin response factors (ARFs) are key transcription factors regulating plant growth and development, but their functions and molecular mechanisms in stem elongation of cucurbit crops remain unclear. In this study, we identified a nuclear-localized ARF member, ClARF4, in watermelo...

Exploration ofZnO-Chitosan Nanoparticles to EnhanceDefense Gene Expression in Rice against Brown Planthopper

Abstract This study investigated the effects of noncomposite and composite forms of ZnO-chitosan nanoparticles (ZnO-Chi-NPs) on the activation of defense-related genes against brown planthopper (BPH) infestation in rice seedlings. Composites of ZnO-Chi-NPs were prepared by a wet...

ONTOLOGICAL RESOLUTION OF THE YANG-MILLS MASS GAP: Exact Derivation via T^6/Z_3 Orbifold Geometry, PT-Symmetric Riemann Hamiltonian H_DR, and Informational Friction \Phi_UFI

The Yang-Mills existence and mass gap problem posed by the Clay Mathematics Institute is resolved by proving that the spectral mass gap (\Delta_{CoH} > 0) is a non-negotiable ontological imperative of the Quantum-Geometric Numerical Fabric (\mathcal{T}_{NCG}). We demonstrate that...

Progress on Halide Solid State Electrolytes: Structural Regulation, Interfacial Engineering, and Machine Learning Driven Paradigms

Abstract Halide solid state electrolytes are applicable for all-solid-state batteries due to their favorable ionic conductivity, desirable mechanical deformability, and wide electrochemical stability window. Here we review recent advances in both lithium-based and sodium-based ha...

Prognostic impact of upper urinary tract drainage in obstructive renal failure related to cervical cancer in Guinea: drainage failure as a poor prognostic factor

Abstract Introduction The impact of upper urinary tract drainage on survival in patients with cervical cancer complicated by obstructive renal failure remains controversial. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prognostic impact of upper urinary tract drainage on overa...

Comparison of Nonlinear Dynamics for Rotor Supported by Aerostatic Journal Bearings with Small-Hole and Micro-Hole Restrictors

Aerostatic journal bearings with small-hole restrictors are widely adopted due to their superior stiffness, making them effective solutions to meet the growing demands for improved stability and higher rotational speeds in precision machinery. In this study, the nonlinear dynamic...

COMPARISON OF AUGMENTED REALITY AND COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY IN THE ASSESSMENT OF INTRA-ARTICULAR DISTAL HUMERUS FRACTURES ACCORDING TO SPECIALIST EXPERIENCE

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare augmented reality (AR) and computed tomography (CT) in terms of diagnostic accuracy (DA), response time (RT), and surgical planning time (SPT) during the assessment of intra-articular distal humerus fractures by orthopedic and traum...

Ensemble sensitivity analysis and k-means clustering of intense coastal rainfall dynamics during TAHOPE-IOP3

Abstract In this study, the features and mechanisms characterizing a heavy rainfall event associated with the Mei-Yu front near the coast of Taiwan on June 7, 2022, were examined through ensemble simulations. Additionally, the correspondence between favorable environmental condit...

Case report of rare complication: unilateral chest wall hematoma after intracranial aneurysm embolization

Unilateral chest wall hematoma is a rare but life-threatening cause of shock following endovascular procedures. We report a case of refractory hypotension and unilateral chest wall swelling in the post-anesthesia care unit, which was initially suspected to be a tension pneumothor...

Wherever the Far Right Lands Electorally, Ideas Cast a Long Shadow

ABSTRACT This piece examines three elements of the British far right today: Restore Britain, Reform UK and far‐right street movements. It examines how each element measures success, arguing that although electoral gains look difficult for Restore and Reform is no longer on track...

Leveraging Machine Learning for Accelerated Electrode–Electrolyte Interface Design in Rechargeable Li‐Based Batteries

Due to their high specific energy, lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) are widely regarded as the promising next-generation energy storage devices. Nevertheless, their practical applications are plagued by the challenges of irregular deposition and dissolution, coupled with the high c...

Co-designing the ConnectUp online platform to facilitate social connection, physical health and mental wellbeing in people with disabilities and carers

Introduction A mobile application and online platform ConnectUp supports people with disabilities (PwD) and carers to socially connect for physical activity. The platform will be optimised, implemented and evaluated between 2025 and 2027 aiming to integrate social connection, phy...

Synthesis, structural and electrical-transport characterization, and first-principles investigations of the quaternary Heusler compound NiCrMnAl

We report experimental and first-principles studies of bulk NiCrMnAl alloy. X-ray diffraction of annealed, arc-melted sample shows a cubic Heusler phase. The (111) and (200) superlattice peaks are absent, indicating site disorder. Annealing restores the (400) peak and improves cr...
