Plural Social Justice in the Graduation Profiles of Social Work Programs at Chilean State Universities

This article analyzes the explicit and implicit presence of social justice in the graduation profiles of Social Work programs at Chilean state universities, as well as the way in which its distributive, recognition, and participatory dimensions are articulated within the declarat...

Independent Domination under Iterated Line Graphs: The Regular Case

Version 1.0.0. For a graph parameter P and a prolific graph G, Caro, Lauri and Zarb defined the index ind(P,G) as the first iterated line graph on which P exceeds its value on G. This preprint determines the independent-domination index on the class of connected regular graphs of...

MODEL ADOPTION #1015: REJECT — LEDGER BENCH: Apply filter: Min confirmations >= 5 — improves win rate from 31.6% to 33.2% — E8 Intelligence Research

DECISION: REJECT ELEMENT: The filter "min confirmations >= 5" is not a concrete, testable edge compatible with E8 geometry timing. It is a statistical heuristic derived from a backtest that does not isolate the *cause* of the win-rate improvement. The +1.6pp gain may be a spuriou...

The SF3b complex in cancer: structural basis, molecular mechanisms, and therapeutic opportunities

Aberrant alternative splicing is increasingly recognized as a fundamental driver of cancer initiation and progression. The splicing factor 3b (SF3b) complex, an essential component of the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP), plays a pivotal role in branch point sequence (B...

From Policy to Practice: A Statewide Model to Expand School-Community Mental Health Partnerships

Abstract Schools are a primary access point for youth mental health services, yet most lack the sustained funding, infrastructure, and partnerships needed to build comprehensive and equitable systems of care. State policy offers a mechanism to address these limitations, but there...

QGD / MPDT and General Relativity: The Aberration Problem, Compared

Newton's instantaneous gravity was abandoned because it appeared incompatible with a finite speed limit and with the empirical fact that orbits do not destabilize under aberration. General relativity resolves this through velocity-dependent terms, forced by general covariance, th...

iCorn: A Methodological Framework for Multi-Label Disease Classification in Maize Using Uncurated Field Images

iCorn: Multi-Label Maize Disease Classification Framework Complete implementation of iCorn—a methodological framework for multi-label classification of maize leaf diseases from uncurated field images using deep learning, with production-ready mobile deployment. **Manuscript**: "i...

Manufacturing technology of ancient gold-in-glass beads from the Kazakh Altai and implications for Eurasian exchange

Abstract Gold-in-glass (GG) beads, composite ornaments encapsulating metal foil between glass layers, are widely distributed across the Mediterranean and Inner Asia, yet their presence and transmission across Inner Asia remain insufficiently understood. In particular, the mechani...

Metallurgical Waste Landfills as Potential Anthropogenic Deposits

Metallurgical slags produced in the zinc–lead, copper, iron and steel metallurgical industries are characterized by a variety of technical parameters and varying chemical and mineral compositions, which depend on the type of raw material and the technological process selected and...

Hyperspectral Camera Imaging Tandem With HPLC‐UV‐ELSD Determination and Cell Bioassay for Geographical Discrimination and Quality Consistency Evaluation of Anoectochilus roxburghii

ABSTRACT Introduction Anoectochilus roxburghii (AR) is a prized medicinal herb valued for its hepatoprotective effects. Its quality varies depending on geographical origin. The primary bioactive constituents include rutin, quercetin‐7‐ O ‐glucoside, kaempferol‐3‐ O ‐rutinoside, n...

Spontaneous clearance and real-world management after first asymptomatic MRSA isolation in pediatric cystic fibrosis

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is increasingly isolated in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) and has been associated with poorer clinical outcomes in CF populations. Although early treatment after first detection is commonly practiced, management of asymptomati...

Halogen‐Acupuncture Stabilization of Pure‐Iodide Wide‐Bandgap Perovskites for Efficient and Stable Solar Cells under Simulated Low‐Earth‐Orbit Cycling

ABSTRACT Pure‐iodide wide‐bandgap (WBG) perovskites are promising top‐cell absorbers for tandem photovoltaics, benefiting from their intrinsic immunity to the halide phase segregation that plagues mixed‐halide counterparts. However, their practical deployment, particularly in spa...

Uneven development of intangible cultural heritage: A spatial analysis of traditional drama in Southwestern China

Intangible cultural heritage (ICH) exhibits pronounced spatial unevenness, yet the spatial patterns and driving mechanisms of traditional drama as a form of living performing heritage remain insufficiently understood. Taking Southwest China as a case, this study analyzes 257 trad...

Nationwide pediatric injury surveillance across two successive system disruptions in South Korea, 2016–2024

Abstract Background Long-term trends in emergency department (ED)-based pediatric injury surveillance during and after the COVID-19 pandemic remain poorly characterized, particularly in settings that experienced additional system-level disruption. In February 2024, South Korea ex...

Computer Science Beyond the Instrumental Paradox

Computer science confronts a strange moment: the technology unsettling its foundations is its own creation. Generative AI—built from the discipline's theory, algorithms, architectures, and data—now produces the very artifact around which the discipline organized itself: executabl...

AI agents can coordinate via majority-following beyond human scale

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in collaborative tasks forming “AI agent societies” where agents interact and influence one another. Whether such groups can spontaneously coordinate without external influence, a hallmark of self-organized regulation in huma...

NIGERIAN TAX LAW AND FIRMS CAPITAL ALLOWANCES IN NIGERIA

This study examined Nigerian tax law and capital allowances. Nigerian Tax Act was employed to measure Nigerian tax law while capital allowance was measured by initial allowance and annual allowance. The study conceptually focused on the manufacturing, oil and gas, utilities and m...

Associations between jump-derived mechanical indicators and sprint performance across sprint sections in baseball players

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between sprint performance across discrete distance sections and mechanical indicators derived from ballistic and reactive jumping tasks in male collegiate baseball players. Sixty-two players performed maximal 40-m sprint...

Infinite Projections in Full Group C*-Algebras of S-Arithmetic Groups

Let K be a number field, let Σ be a nonempty finite set of nonzero prime ideals of O_K, and let n ≥ 4. We prove that C*max(SL_n(O_{K,Σ})) contains an infinite projection and a proper isometry. Hence it is not finite and is neither stably finite nor MF, although SL_n(O_{K,Σ}) is a...
