The problem of relativity of gel force in laboratory kamaboko

Technological differences in the production of surimi from different types of fish raw materials using decanters and screw presses, as well as the division into first and second lines, depending on the protein source, are con-sidered. It was found that, with identical formal para...

Association between women's autonomy and their health outcomes in India: evidence from NFHS-5

Purpose This study explores the association between women's autonomy and their health outcomes in India, focusing on anaemia and body mass index among currently married women aged 15–49 years using nationally representative data from the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5). De...

Perspectives and challenges for delivering spinal cord injury research and exercise interventions during inpatient rehabilitation in the UK

Abstract Background The subacute period following spinal cord injury (SCI) is an important window for rehabilitation and exercise research, yet delivering clinical trials during inpatient rehabilitation within the UK National Health Service (NHS) is challenging. Fragmented care p...

Wax-treated hemp fabrics to reduce water absorption in PLA/PBSA laminated composites

Biocomposites with natural fibres have generated considerable interest thanks to their environmental sustainability. Nevertheless, their use in humid environments remains limited. This study investigates a blend of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(butylene succinate) (PBSA) reinf...

Development and Quality Assessment of Sorghum-enriched Vermicelli: Nutritional, Sensory and Microbiological Evaluation

West Africa imports most of its wheat. Local grains such as sorghum could reduce this dependence on cereal products, but only if the resulting food still tastes acceptable. This study made wheat-sorghum composite vermicelli with sorghum flour grown in Togo and tested three incorp...

Trends in Dispensing of Opioids and Benzodiazepines Among Older Adults Admitted for an Acute Hip Fracture Between 2008 and 2024 in Ontario, Canada

INTRODUCTION: Opioids and benzodiazepines (BZDs) are commonly prescribed for managing pain, anxiety, and sleep-related problems following a hip fracture. Both opioids and BZDs carry risks of persistent dependence, falls, and mortality with long-term use. Despite these risks, Cana...

Effects of Different Ecological Restoration Treatments on Plant Functional Group Characteristics and Nitrogen and Phosphorus Stoichiometry in Alpine Semi-Humid Sandy Land

Ecological restoration of alpine sandy lands plays an important role in promoting vegetation recovery and enhancing ecosystem functions. However, the response characteristics of plant functional groups and nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) dynamics under different restoration treat...

Buoyancy-driven convection in Julia-fractal cavities with iteration-dependent boundary evolution

This study investigates buoyancy-driven convection in cavities with Julia-type boundaries, with particular emphasis on Siegel disk configurations. The boundary geometry progressively evolves with the Julia iteration level n , enabling systematic investigation of iteration-depende...

Photothermal catalytic conversion of nonanoic acid into bio-jet fuel-range alkanes

The substitution of petroleum-derived jet fuel with biomass-derived alternatives is a promising strategy to address the energy crisis and reduce fossil-resource dependence. However, the efficient conversion of biomass-derived feedstocks into bio-jet fuel-range alkanes remains cha...

Identification of PAK Gene Fusions in an Ovarian and a Testicular Serous Carcinoma

This report describes two unique gonadal serous carcinomas, one low-grade serous carcinoma (LGSC) of the ovary and one serous carcinoma of the scrotum each harboring novel PAK gene fusions. The first patient with ovarian LGSC was identified to have a PTPRM::PAK1 fusion, identifyi...

Electric-Field-Controlled Rotational Spectroscopy for Highly Selective Gas Sensing

Air quality control is essential for preventing human exposure to toxic and harmful gases and therefore requires reliable and highly selective gas sensors. Over the past few decades, numerous sensing techniques based on different physical and chemical interactions with sensitive...

Route–Resource Interlock in a Controlled Reaction Network: Finite-Horizon Viability, Observation Failure, and Refinement

This preprint develops a route–resource interlock in a thermodynamically specified controlled reaction network with two non-equivalent finite fuel pools, competing restoration and repair, and evolving coupling. The feasible-current correspondence depends on the support state, whi...

Cytokine Profiles in Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia: Associations with Lesion Severity and Exploratory Treatment Response

Background: Persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) is the principal cause of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Cytokines regulate antiviral immunity and tissue remodeling, and cytokine profiling may provide additional information about the biolog...

Support Needs of Mothers of Children with Down Syndrome in Kuwait

Background objective: This study explored the level of support needs of mothers of children with Down syndrome (DS) in Kuwait following postnatal diagnosis, across four domains: educational needs, professional needs, social needs, and primary caregiver support needs. Methods: A c...

Beyond Fragmentation: A Multidimensional Framework for Green Product Innovation

Green product innovation (GPI) has become an essential strategy for companies to address environmental challenges while strengthening their competitiveness in a sustainable manner. However, important gaps remain in understanding how internal organizational factors interact with e...

Fronto-Parietal Brain Metabolites Following Traumatic Brain Injury—A Proton MR Spectroscopy Study

Background: Conventional structural CT and MRI may be normal after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), while magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (1H-MRSI) can provide regional measures of brain metabolites. We examined supracallosal fronto-parietal metabolite ratios in activ...

Fibonacci Search: Recurrence, Binet's Formula, and Golden Ratio — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: The search results are dominated by popular expositions of the Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio, with one outlier on hexaquark decay — no direct hits on Fibonacci anyons, Temperley-Lieb algebras, or loop values. The mathematical core is the classical Fibonacci recurre...

„QueerBib – so queer wie ihr“: Einblicke in das laufende Projekt der Stadtbibliothek Köln

Zusammenfassung „QueerBib – so queer wie ihr“ ist der Titel des laufenden Projekts der Stadtbibliothek Köln, um die queere Perspektive im Bestand und der Programmarbeit fest zu verankern und sichtbarer zu machen. Während das gesamte Jahr über an diesem Themenbereich gearbeitet wi...

A dual-functional antiviral and anticancer peptide to target intricate host-pathogen interacting proteins of human papillomavirus associated with head and neck cancer

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is increasingly being reported worldwide, and a major contributing factor is the incidence of human papillomavirus infections. The viral infection activates proto-oncogenes and signalling mechanisms aiding in tumorigenesis. An efficient way t...

E8 Prime Harmonic Interference Principle — E8 Intelligence Research

We discover that prime number emergence at E8 spectral nodes is governed by harmonic interference constraints between adjacent Fibonacci-indexed nodes: only nodes with constructive phase alignment (φ-scaled resonance) support prime density states, while destructive interference a...
