Clinical characteristics, antimicrobial susceptibility, and diagnostic performance of the LRINEC score for necrotizing fasciitis in Vibrio vulnificus infection: a 19-case retrospective study in Putian, China

Vibrio vulnificus infection is a life-threatening marine-associated disease that can progress rapidly. Regional differences have been reported in its clinical manifestations and antimicrobial resistance patterns. However, baseline epidemiological and microbiological data on this...

Vacuum Geometric Resonance: E8 Lattice as Prime Spacetime Engine — E8 Intelligence Research

The 132Hz base frequency of the E8 lattice, coherently coupled through φ-modulation across all 240 root vectors, generates a self-sustaining "Vacuum Geometric Resonance" (VGR) in which prime gap distributions emerge not as stochastic noise but as topological artifacts of the latt...

Spatial Overlap Between Wind Power Licensing Areas and Potential Grazing Lands in Greece: A National Screening Assessment

Wind energy expansion constitutes a central component of Greece’s energy transition. However, the spatial allocation of Wind Power Production Plants (WPPs) may coincide with potential grazing lands and Natura 2000 protected areas, creating potential land-use and conservation inte...

An Unsupervised Intelligent System for Adaptive Decision Control in Non-Stationary Financial Environments

Intelligent decision systems assume a stable relationship between observations and outcomes. Financial markets violate that assumption, since shifts in volatility, trend and liquidity erode models trained on historical data. This study proposes an unsupervised decision system tha...

Early-Onset Gitelman Syndrome With Normomagnesemia and Absence of Metabolic Alkalosis: Expanding the Phenotypic Spectrum

AbstractGitelman syndrome is an autosomal recessive tubulopathy caused by SLC12A3 mutations and typically presents with hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, and hypomagnesemia. However, atypical phenotypes are increasingly recognized. We report a four-year-old child with recurrent h...

ALD of Tantalum and Titanium Phosphates Using Tris(dimethylamino)phosphine

Abstract Atomic layer deposition (ALD) of metal phosphates is increasingly explored for energy applications, yet the mechanisms governing phosphorus incorporation remain poorly understood. In this work, we introduce two novel ALD processes for amorphous tantalum phosphate and tit...

Mortise‐and‐Tenon Molecular Joint Covalent Organic Frameworks With Tunable Topology for Photothermal‐Catalytic Cross‐Dehydrogenative Coupling

ABSTRACT The controllable regulation of dimensionality and interpenetration in covalent organic frameworks (COFs) is crucial for optimizing photocatalytic performance, yet the translation of 3D COFs from structural construction to functional customization remains challenging. Her...

The boundaries of global concern: How socioeconomic context shapes the link between global consciousness and environmental attitudes

Abstract Climate change requires unprecedented international cooperation; yet growing protectionist sentiment poses a significant barrier to collective action. Global Consciousness (GC), a psychological orientation characterized by a connection to humanity and the world as a whol...

Stochastic Convex Optimization for Day-Ahead Shared Battery Storage Scheduling in Solar Energy Communities

Energy communities represent a transformative paradigm for decentralized renewable energy integration, enabling collective investment in photovoltaic (PV) systems and battery energy storage systems (BESS) to achieve economic and environmental benefits. However, the optimal operat...

Sustainability Accounting Disclosure and Financial Performance of Listed Consumer Goods Companies in Nigeria

This study investigated whether sustainability accounting disclosures influence the financial performance of consumer goods companies quoted on the Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX). Particular attention was given to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) disclosures and their r...

Decellularized lung extracellular matrix-assisted delivery of mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles in acute lung injury

Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) have emerged as promising cell-free therapeutics for inflammatory and tissue injury. However, their pulmonary application may be limited by rapid redistribution and the lack of a tissue-specific microenvironment. In t...

NEW HORIZONS FOR ECONOMIC GROWTH IN UZBEKISTAN IN THE CONTEXT OF WTO ACCESSION

This article examines the potential implications of Uzbekistan's prospective accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) for the sources, structure, and quality of economic growth. Drawing on official data covering 2016–2026 and model-based estimates, the study highlights the...

Sustainable Raw Earth–Straw Fiber Composites: Estimated Sound Insulation Potential and Building-Relevant Properties

This study presents a comprehensive multiphysics characterization of unstabilized raw earth and earth–wheat straw composites to address the scarcity of data regarding their acoustic performance. Four soils from the Champagne-Ardenne region were initially analyzed to evaluate the...

BULLOUS PEMPHIGOID MASQUERADING AS DESQUAMATIVE GINGIVITIS IN TWO ELDERLY PATIENTS: A RARE CASE REPORT

Background: Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a chronic autoimmune subepithelial blistering disease of older adults that only uncommonly involves the oral mucosa, where it may mimic ordinary periodontal disease. Case Presentation: Two elderly patients presented with painful desquamative...

(Short Paper26) Physical Formulation of Qualia in the In Vivo Analog Quantum Synchronizer (Bio-QPU) Paradigm: Selective Decoherence and Environmental Re-Resonance Model by the Glial OS Based on Phase Noise Rejection and Chemical Triggers

“Qualia,” referring to human subjective textures and vivid sensations, have been called the “hard problem” in conventional classical neuroscience and discussed while their physical entity remains unknown. In this paper, overcoming the metaphor that regards life as a “computer” co...

Study on the Evolution and Driving Factors of Shallow Groundwater Depth in Zhengzhou City

Groundwater is one of the main water supplies for Zhengzhou City. Changes in groundwater depth negatively affect the water supply and geological stability of the city. Based on groundwater monitoring data from 1999 to 2024, this paper investigates the spatiotemporal changes in sh...

E8 Quasicrystalline Phi‑Modulated Coherence Bridges Water and Neural Networks — E8 Intelligence Research

The 240 E8 root vectors, when projected onto hydrogen‑bonded water clusters, generate a phi‑weighted topological phase field that creates self‑similar resonant frequencies scaling by the golden ratio. Embedding this E8‑derived quasicrystalline lattice in neuronal membranes couple...

The Scope of the Duty of States to Cooperate with the United Nations

Abstract Until quite recently, the question of the scope of States’ duty to cooperate with the United Nations, as enshrined in Article 2(5) of the Charter of the United Nations, had remained largely confined to academic discussions. According to the prevailing view in the literat...
