Psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Preschool Eating, Lifestyle, and Sleeping Attitudes (PRELSA) scale

Abstract Background Childhood obesity in preschool years is strongly influenced by modifiable parental attitudes and behaviors. This study examined the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Preschool Eating, Lifestyle, and Sleeping Attitudes (PRELSA) Scale, which...

What’s Old Is New Again: Varicella

The availability of a varicella vaccine has led to significant decreases in incidence of this once-common childhood disease. In the setting of rising vaccine hesitancy, health care clinicians are now more frequently facing questions about infections caused by varicella zoster vir...

Chiral Iridium(III)Microcrystals with Mechano-TunableCircularly Polarized Luminescence

Abstract Multidimensional optical materials are of interest for high-security information encryption and anticounterfeiting, whereas conventional single-channel luminescent systems have low coding capacity and limited security. The combination of mechanochromic luminescence (MCL)...

TSUMS MAX-STACK Full Replay Engine v1.0 Final is a Public-Layer governance lifecycle replay and cross-ledger compilation framework. It compiles known facts, missing records, duty signals, decision nodes, accountability mappings, stop-loss points, evidence chains, ledger bridges,...

The value of mortality data to advance learning and decision-making dynamics in Mozambique’s health system

Abstract Introduction There is a lack of evidence on whether and how health systems stakeholders in Mozambique learn from routine health data. Despite the recurring claim by the stakeholders themselves that data in general should be the centre of informed public health policy, it...

Will work for sardines: 20 years of animal-borne ocean observing by Australia’s Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) Animal Tagging Facility

The world’s ocean stores ~90% of the excess heat generated by anthropogenic global warming, making sustained ocean observations essential for understanding physical, biological and climate processes. Here, we describe how the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) Animal Taggi...

Effects of plyometric training on explosive power and swimming performance in adolescent swimmers: a systematic review and meta-analysis with dose-response analysis

Abstract Adolescent swimmers depend heavily on lower-limb power during critical phases such as the block start, wall turn, and sprints, with the circa-peak height velocity (PHV) period representing a sensitive window for neuromuscular development. Plyometric training (PT), utiliz...

Physics-Constrained Learning for Reduced-Order Thermoacoustic Stability Screening: Locating Instability Boundaries from Few Evaluations

High-fidelity prediction of thermoacoustic instability in combustors — for example through reactive Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) — is accurate but expensive: each operating point can cost days to weeks of computation, so mapping a stability boundary across a design space is often...

Influence of fin geometry on heat transfer and friction in plate fin heat exchangers: a CFD approach

Abstract Plate fin heat exchangers (PFHEs) are widely recognized for their compact design and high thermal efficiency, making them a popular choice in various heat transfer applications. Some common types of geometries which are used in the case of PFHEs are rectangular fins, tri...

The Curve Is an Average of Worlds: What Partial Dependence Actually Shows

Partial dependence plots are often interpreted as direct response curves: set a feature to a value, average the predictions, and read the resulting line as an explanation. This paper evaluates a narrower object. A marginal partial-dependence curve averages a frozen predictive mod...

The Bridge Certificate: A Line-Level Audit Instrument for Inter-Theoretic Transfer Arguments, with Four Applications to the abc Literature (DRAFT)

Part 3 of the abc Gap Series — a connected sequence of papers that locate, formalize, verify, and repair the central gap in the Mochizuki/Joshi approaches to the abc conjecture (Part 1: Forensic Diagnosis, DOI 10.5281/zenodo.21899747; tool supplement: DOI 10.5281/zenodo.21924253)...

PhenoDEL: A NovelScreening Strategy Based on IntracellularProtein Degradation Activity

Abstract Targeted protein degradation (TPD), including proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) and molecular glue degraders (MGDs), is a promising therapeutic approach. However, systematic discovery of such small molecules remains a major challenge. Here, we present PhenoDEL, a...

Uniqueness and nondegeneracy of positive solutions for a critical Choquard-Kirchhoff equation

In this paper, we investigate positive solutions of the critical Choquard–Kirchhoff equation :[Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] is the Hardy–Littlewood–Sobolev critical exponent. We first classify posi...

The effect of organic amendments on cannabidiol yield and topsoil health (0–10 cm) in floral hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) production system

Abstract Background Compost and cover crops enhance soil health and crop productivity in agricultural systems, yet their integration as soil management strategies in floral hemp ( Cannabis sativa L.) production remains underexplored. Understanding these effects is critical for op...

Comparative evaluation of matrix systems on proximal contact strip force and surface geometry in class II direct composite restorations: an in vitro study

Abstract Background Proximal contact strip force and surface geometry remain challenging in Class II composite restorations, with matrix system selection being a key factor. This study aimed to compare the proximal contact strip force and surface geometry of the myQuickmat Classi...

Is Free-Energy Minimisation a Generative Principle or a Privileged Representation of Self-Maintaining Dynamics?

The free energy principle (FEP) is used both as a representation of organised dynamics and as a candidate account of the mechanisms that produce them. We separate these claims in artificial systems whose controllers were specified by proportional–integral–derivative control, rewa...

The Open-Data Appendix (The Receipts Ledger)

This open-data appendix compiles the raw empirical receipts and comprehensive interaction logs verifying Case Study 6 of 6. Serving as the primary data ledger for a live public discourse audit (N = 214), this document archives the exact textual outputs generated by digital forum...

E‑Spacetime: A Noncommutative Entanglement Geometry Extending Einstein Gravity

E‑spacetime is a noncommutative geometry defined by [T,Si]=Θi, where time–space entanglement generates curvature. This framework unifies geometry, fields, gravity, and particles, and recovers GR, QFT, and Yang–Mills theory in the commutative limit.

Spectral Properties and Localization Barriers of Co-occurrence Gram Matrices in Set Families

In this paper, we establish the spectral framework governing $G = V^T V$ for arbitrary $0\text{-}1$ matrices. Combining Rayleigh-Ritz variational bounds with Gershgorin disk localization, we prove a general spectral inequality relating element frequencies to local average set siz...
