Role of Useful Minerals in Evolution of the Mankind

The main idea in this article is that useful minerals play most important role in evolution of mankind. Many investigators are writing, that soon after several tens of ears the top of useful minerals mining will begin in all the world. I suppose that from this time new age of man...

Early Sensory Dysfunction in Type 2 Diabetes: Vibration Perception Abnormalities in Patients Without Neuropathic Symptoms

Background/Objectives: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with peripheral sensory dysfunction, and sensory abnormalities may develop before the onset of clinically apparent neuropathic symptoms. This study aimed to compare vibration perception thresholds (VPTs) between...

OSAIN: An Ontology-Guided Sparse Additive-Interaction Network for Interpretable Multi-Horizon Forecasting of Diamondback Moth (Plutella xylostella) Abundance

Forecasting diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) abundance months ahead could support timely crop protection, but short monitoring records challenge both accuracy and interpretability. We examined whether ecological structure could improve multi-horizon forecasts while making t...

Interaction Engineering Enables Reconfigurable Flocking in Chemical Micromotors

ABSTRACT A flock of chemical micromotors is potentially useful for drug delivery and environmental sensing, but realizing this potential is often hindered by uncontrolled clustering due to phoresis/osmosis. Here, we decouple the propulsion and head‐to‐head repulsion in chemically...

Recommendations for Token Lifetimes (AARC G081)

This document provides a short overview over selected types of tokens used to identify and authorise users. We analyse the different properties of tokens and categorise available authorisation patterns to give recommendations about the lifetimes of tokens associated with specific...

Adjuvant Systemic Hypothermia During Mechanical Thrombectomy (ReCCLAIM II): A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Trial

BACKGROUND: Hypothermia reduces ischemic injury in preclinical stroke models, yet translation into the clinical setting remains challenging. We aimed to assess the feasibility of inducing adjuvant systemic hypothermia among patients with large-vessel occlusion stroke during mecha...

Bi-Level Coordinated Optimal Operation of a Multi-Microgrid System with Shared Energy Storage

To improve sustainable operation of multi-microgrid (MMG) systems with high penetration of renewable energy, this paper proposes a bi-level coordinated optimization method based on Stackelberg and cooperative games to address wind–photovoltaic output fluctuations, stakeholder coo...

Water-Stable Metal−Organic Framework with a Tuned Pore Microenvironment for Selective Acetylene Separation

Abstract Due to the highly similar molecular dimensions, polarizability, and physicochemical properties among C2H2, CO2, C2H6, and C2H4, these gas molecules always exhibit analogous adsorption behaviors in conventional porous adsorbents. Therefore, the precise and high-efficient...

Introduction: Current functional lines of thinking in sociological theory and research

This thematic issue aims to reconsider the potentials and shortcomings of functional lines of thinking in current sociology. This is important because, despite strong criticism, functional reasoning is still present in social theory and research. However, references often remain...

ПЕРИФЕРИЧЕСКАЯ КРОВЬ КАК ЛАБОРАТОРНЫЙ ИНДИКАТОР НЕЭФФЕКТИВНОГО ГЕМОПОЭЗА ПРИ МИЕЛОДИСПЛАСТИЧЕСКОМ СИНДРОМЕ

Актуальность. Миелодиспластические неоплазии (МДС) представляют собой клональные заболевания миелоидного кроветворения, характеризующиеся неэффективным гемопоэзом, цитопениями периферической крови и морфологической дисплазией клеток кроветворения (Oster H.S., Mittelman M., 2024.)...

2026 revised CVIT clinical expert consensus on drug coated balloons for coronary artery disease

Abstract Drug-coated balloons (DCBs) are attracting attention as a therapeutic alternative to drug-eluting stents (DES) in percutaneous coronary interventions. DCB technology allows direct delivery of antiproliferative drugs to the vessel wall without implantation of a permanent...

Access to Justice Through Protected Testimony : Legal & Constitutional Challenges in Developing Countries

Access to Justice Through Protected Testimony : Legal & Constitutional Challenges in Developing Countries Ashish Dwivedi* Witness protection, ranging from anonymity orders, in-camera proceedings, relocation of witnesses, identity change and technology assisted testimony, is an es...

Conservative Political Theory and the Mechanics of Transmission: Institutional Reproduction in a Fractured Age

Contemporary conservative political theory has undergone a normative revival, yet it remains underdeveloped in its account of how traditions are materially sustained across time. This article addresses this gap by synthesizing insights from Alexis de Tocqueville, Alasdair MacInty...

Anxiety and Depression in Cervical Cancer Patients in Relation to Nutritional Status and Oxidative Stress

Cervical cancer remains a major global health concern, causing substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Beyond its physical burden, patients frequently experience significant psychological distress, including anxiety and depression, w...

Overweight, Obesity, and Musculoskeletal Symptom Burden in Chile: A Population-Based Cross-Sectional Study

Background/Objectives: Musculoskeletal symptoms (MSS) are among the leading causes of pain and functional limitation worldwide, yet population-level evidence linking excess body weight to MSS in Latin America remains scarce. This study examined the association between body mass i...

Technology to remotely capture key elements of swallowing and speech: State of the science in Parkinson's disease

Swallowing and speech impairments are common in Parkinson's disease (PD) and can significantly affect health and quality of life. Traditional methods for assessing and managing these functions rely on in-person visits and large, expensive equipment, which are inaccessible to many...

Bandwagons or breeding grounds for innovation: What economic elites’ private museums contribute to the arts

In recent decades, hundreds of private art collectors have opened museum spaces, which they largely finance and control themselves. While such initiatives have been criticized as conspicuous consumption or vanity projects, one public benefit claimed is the display of new artistic...
