Becoming Through Doing: Lived Experiences and Professional Identity Development in Marketing Students’ Industrial Placements

This study explores the lived experiences of marketing students during year-long industrial placements (a.k.a. internships), focusing on how these experiences contribute to professional identity development. Although industrial placements are widely recognized for enhancing stude...

Molecular Features of Heatstroke Revealed by Integrated Proteomics and Metabolomics

Abstract Heatstroke is a critical medical condition marked by hyperthermia-induced immune dysregulation, endothelial damage, and organ dysfunction, yet its molecular mechanisms are not fully elucidated. In this study, serum samples from heatstroke (HS) patients and normal control...

Factors associated with cervical lymph node metastasis in lower-lip squamous cell carcinoma: emphasis on depth of invasion and histopathological features

To identify factors associated with cervical lymph node metastasis in patients who underwent surgery for lower-lip squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). This retrospective study included patients who underwent surgical treatment for lower-lip SCC. Demographic, clinical, and histopatholo...

Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Graphene and Graphene-Derived Ionic Liquid Supercapacitors: A Review of Methods and Applications

Abstract Graphene and graphene-derived electrodes combined with ionic liquid electrolytes provide atomically well-defined, high-surface-area interfaces and wide electrochemical windows, making them benchmark platforms for supercapacitor research. Understanding how molecular-scale...

Ag-CuO x -MnO x -CeO2 Interfacial Interactions in Low-Temperature Oxidation Catalysts: Effect of Cu Loading

Abstract In environmental multielement catalysts, the catalytic function usually emerges when the elements in desired oxidation states are involved in interfacial interactions on the catalyst surface. The approaches to tune the distribution and interplay of states of elements are...

Food insecurity and its associated factors among lactating mothers in Ankesha Guagusa Woreda, Northwest Ethiopia: a community-based cross-sectional study

Food insecurity is defined as the limited or uncertain availability of nutritious, adequate, and safe food, as well as a constrained potential to obtain suitable foods in socially acceptable manners. Food insecurity leads to both macro/micronutrient deficiency, making lactating w...

Public perception of osteopathic manipulative medicine as an effective treatment for musculoskeletal disorders

CONTEXT: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are among the most prevalent causes of disability globally, contributing significantly to diminished quality of life and rising healthcare costs. While pharmacological treatments and physical therapy remain standard, alternative modalitie...

Effect of Hydrogen Peroxide Addition on the Modal and Thermochemical Response of a Hydrogen–Oxygen Rotating Detonation Engine

Abstract Rotating detonation engines (RDE) are compact pressure-gain combustors whose practical operation depends on maintaining coherent coupling among rotating-wave propagation, mixture replenishment, ignition, and heat release. This computational study examines whether a low-l...

Palliative radiotherapy for gastric cancer–related bleeding: a systematic review and meta-analysis of bleeding response and dose–response relationships

PURPOSE: Palliative radiotherapy is commonly used to control bleeding in advanced gastric cancer; however, the optimal dose-fractionation regimen as well as the dose-response relationship remain unclear. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of radiotherapy for gastric cancer-re...

Development of a human respiratory tract effector cell-mediated antiviral assay using blood and airway immune cells from individuals previously hospitalised with COVID-19

Abstract Serum antibody–based neutralisation assays correlate with protective immunity to SARS-CoV-2, but cell-mediated in vitro cytotoxicity assays are lacking. Data on virus-specific respiratory tract immune responses in humans remain limited. Fifteen healthy participants who h...

Covering Laws for Powers of the Pythagorean Angle Lattice: Pell Twins and a Ternary Invariant

Sharp covering laws for powers of the Pythagorean Angle Lattice are governed by Pell twins and a ternary invariant of the symmetric Gaussian cubic form, yielding the cubic law ρ₃(Q) ≍ Q^{-3/4} and a general lattice-number conjecture. The Pythagorean angle lattice is PAL = {cot(α/...

Explainable machine learning for identifying nonlinear associations between street vitality and the built environment in a Historic District

Historic districts exhibit fine-grained spatial variation, while street vitality may relate nonlinearly to the built environment. Using 213 micro-sampling points in the Lihuangpi Road Historic District, Wuhan, this study integrates heritage location, functional facilities, transp...

Dynamic control allocation for the transition mode of composite vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle

The transition mode of composite vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle is characterized by strong coupling and sudden dynamic changes, making it susceptible to external disturbances; conventional control strategies struggle to meet the requirements for...

DYNAMICS OF PATHOGENETIC PARAMETERS BY GESTATIONAL TRIMESTERS IN PREGNANT WOMEN WITH COVID-19: CLINICAL-LABORATORY STRATIFICATION AND PHENOTYPIC TRANSFORMATION

Introduction. COVID-19 in pregnant women is characterised by significant phenotypic variability, ranging from asymptomatic disease to severe complications with multi-organ dysfunction. While most studies describe the static laboratory profile of infection, the dynamics of pathoge...

Consistent unmet needs and fragmented care in rett syndrome: insights from a multi-country European caregiver study

Abstract Background Rett syndrome is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder associated with functional impairments that emerge in early childhood and persist throughout life. Despite improved understanding of its genetic basis and natural history, therapeutic options remain limited,...

Medical visual analytics as an integrated interaction system for primary care patient data exploration

Primary care physicians must build an overview of complex patient histories within short consultations. Clinical information is often distributed across systems, visits, and temporal events, while the physician still has to maintain situation awareness, patient communication, and...

Stringent Response Changes Cell Membrane Permeability in Escherichia coli but does not Develop Cross Tolerance to Kanamycin, Tetracycline and Ampicillin

Stringent response induces many changes in the cell to provide a survival advantage in conditions of nutrient starvation. One of these changes is decreased susceptibility to kanamycin, tetracycline and ampicillin. In this study, we investigated changes in Escherichia coli membran...

Overexposure-aware adaptive scanning and confidence fusion reconstruction for highly reflective workpieces

• Multi-angle pre-scanning predicts overexposure distributions for view quality assessment. • Adaptive main-view and compensation-view planning improves reflective-region coverage. • Pixel-level confidence guides point cloud fusion using fringe modulation, overexposure penalty, a...

Magnetic Chitosan‐Based Poly(Acrylic Acid‐ co ‐Methyl Methacrylate‐ co ‐2‐(Dimethylamino)ethyl Methacrylate)/ Fe 3 O 4 Composite Hydrogel for Adsorption of Anionic and Cationic Dyes

ABSTRACT The design of versatile adsorbents with maximum efficiency in dye removal and easy recovery is important in wastewater treatment. In this work, a chitosan‐based poly(acrylic acid‐co‐methyl methacrylate‐co‐2‐(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate)/Fe 3 O 4 hydrogel was synthes...
