Learning from Biodegradable Coronary Stents: Future Directions for TPVR Biodegradable Stents

Bioresorbable stents (BRS) have been explored in cardiovascular intervention to provide temporary mechanical support while reducing long-term foreign material. The coronary experience has shown both the potential and the limitations of this strategy. First-generation polymeric st...

Relationship value-based antecedents of customer loyalty in B2B markets

Purpose This study aims to broaden knowledge on behavioural and attitudinal loyalty in business-to-business (B2B) markets. Design/methodology/approach Following a literature review and a qualitative study to identify key constructs, a conceptual framework was developed and tested...

Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic Syndrome Risk Awareness in the Philippine Context: An Evolutionary Concept Analysis

This preprint presents an evolutionary concept analysis of cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome risk awareness in the Philippine context. Using Rodgers’ evolutionary method, the analysis examines the development of the concept, its defining attributes, antecedents, cons...

Beyond Scheduling: The Emotional and Symbolic Impact of Session Frequency Transitions in Psychotherapy

ABSTRACT Objective Session frequency has long been recognised as an important factor in psychotherapy effectiveness. Yet patients' experiences of different session frequencies have been barely explored, and transitions between frequencies even less so. In light of this research g...

Public Knowledge, Practices, and Acceptance of Smart Health Technologies Addressing Antibiotic Use and Resistance in Saudi Arabia

Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) remains a major global public health threat, largely driven by inappropriate antibiotic use. Smart health technologies (SHTs), including mobile health applications and digital stewardship tools, offer promising opportunities to improve a...

Trophic Antioxidant Transfer as a Measure for Scalable Coral Conservation Strategies

Coral reefs are increasingly threatened by elevated seawater temperatures associated with heatwaves and El Niño events. These phenomena challenge conventional management practices, highlighting an urgent need for innovative interventions to enhance reef resilience. Investigating...

From research to practice: transforming patient-reported data reporting through a collaborative digital system

Purpose Innovation in the healthcare (HC) sector presents challenges and complexities. Universities and research centers can play a role in HC innovation collaborative initiatives. This article examines how collaborative co-creation between academia and HC organizations enabled t...

Terminology in para sport research: is there a “correct” way to speak about disability?

Language used in disability sport reflects societal values and shapes how athletes are perceived. In adapted, Para, and Paralympic contexts, terms are not merely descriptive – they influence identity, inclusion, and respect. Two main approaches are discussed: person-first languag...

Production, Biodegradation,and Recalcitrance of OrganicCarbon from Cultivated Saccharina latissima in Norway

Abstract Particulate (POC) and dissolved (DOC) organic carbon released during macroalgae cultivation has been shown to lead to carbon burial and export to the open ocean and deep sea. The recalcitrant portion of the DOC (RDOC) is a critical contributor to carbon sequestration and...

Gel Electrolytes for Flexible Zinc‐Air Batteries: Design, Challenges, and Perspectives

ABSTRACT Flexible zinc‐air batteries (FZABs) have emerged as promising candidates for next‐generation flexible electronics and large‐scale energy storage. However, dendrite growth, interfacial side reactions, and electrolyte leakage severely limit their cycle life and energy dens...

A Lifestyle Behavior Score Predicting Cardiovascular and Other Causes of Death in a Cohort of Middle-Aged Men Followed up Until Extinction

Objective: To create and test in a population study a behavior score, using as far as possible, procedures based on the a posteriori approach. Material and Methods: Data from the Italian Rural Areas (IRAs) of the Seven Countries Study of Cardiovascular Diseases (SCS), comprising...

Um to Kuan: Cognitive Load and Verbal Fillers in Multilingual Speech

Abstract. Contemporary psycholinguistic paradigms recognize verbal fillers as functional byproducts of cognitive processing and speech planning rather than indicators of poor articulation. This study examines the tension between processing utility and communicative competence by...

From movement to motor behavior: epistemology of embodied knowledge and the limits of its digital representation

This article problematises the dominant ways in which spatio-temporal movement data are interpreted and semantically enriched in the context of intangible cultural heritage. Rather than treating semantics as a secondary layer added to already recorded kinematic parameters, the pa...

Post-TAVR Neo-Sinus Geometry and Impaired Ventricular Recovery Are Associated with Early Leaflet Thrombosis: First MDCT Insights from Vietnam

Background/Objectives: Leaflet thrombosis after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), typically identified as hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) on multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), is increasingly recognized as an early manifestation of bioprosthetic valve...
