Keystone microbial isozyme enhances crustacean growth by utilizing L-citrulline

Under standardized rearing conditions, the genetically uniform “Keyong No. 1” swimming crab exhibits pronounced inter-individual variability in growth performance. While the gut microbiota is recognized contributors to crustacean growth, the specific microbes and mechanistic path...

Multidimensional barriers to women’s access to maternal health services in Herat Province, Afghanistan: a cross-sectional study

Maternal health remains a critical public health priority in Afghanistan, which has one of the highest maternal mortality ratios. Women’s access to maternal health services is influenced by multiple interacting dimensions; however, comprehensive evidence on the relative contribut...

Prediction models for dynamic respiratory muscle strength in COPD and asthma patients based on fixed-pressure inspiratory muscle performance

Dynamic inspiratory muscle strength, assessed using the S-Index, reflects pressure generation during flow-dependent inspiration and may provide functional information beyond static respiratory muscle strength measures. However, its routine clinical use is limited by the need for...

Bank Systems

We are introducing the Axiomatization Framework of Bank Systems. Some theorems are completed about Housing, and other Assets Management.

Evaluating pumped hydro storage system impacts through life cycle assessment

In recent years, the rapid integration of renewable energies like solar and wind introduces grid stability challenges due to their weather-dependent output, making reliable storage solutions such as Pumped Hydro Storage (PHS) systems essential. Consequently, this study aims to ev...

Predictive patient characteristics for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in solid organ cancers: an observational study from a tertiary care setting

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) persists in a substantial proportion of patients despite guideline-based antiemetic prophylaxis. Current preventive strategies largely emphasize chemotherapy-related risk, with limited consideration of patient-specific factors. This...

Genetic insights into the population structure and adaptive evolution of tea germplasm in Guangxi, China

Guangxi, China, is a critical region for tea plant genetic resources because of its proximity to the center of tea origin and its rich tea germplasm resources. However, the genetic background and evolutionary history of tea plant ( Camellia sinensis ) in this region remain poorly...

Radiographic, histological, and immunohistochemical comparison of allograft, xenograft, and combined graft in maxillary sinus augmentation: a prospective randomized clinical study

This prospective randomized clinical trial aimed to compare the radiographic, histological, and immunohistochemical outcomes of allograft, xenograft, and combined graft use in maxillary sinus augmentation. Patients with a residual alveolar bone height ≤ 4 mm in the posterior maxi...

A review of the recent advancements and modification techniques for enhancing the supercapacitor applications

The economic growth of modern societies heavily depends on the energy production rate. The low-carbon emission-based technology and the research have gained tremendous interest to achieve zero carbon target and energy transition. The electrochemical energy is considered a promisi...

Boundary Maps from Kantowski–Sachs Collapse to Cosmological Expansion: Canonical Classification, Reduced Invariants, and Covariant Obstructions

This record archives version v1.0 of the manuscript and its reproducibility package. We ask when a relation between a collapsing Kantowski–Sachs boundary state and an expanding homogeneous state can be more than a kinematic identification. For Einstein gravity with a massless sca...

Exercise-containing multimodal prehabilitation on functional outcome of patients with hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancer after surgery: a meta-analysis

Hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HBP) cancers often require complex surgeries that lead to functional decline and poor quality of life (QoL). Exercise-containing multimodal prehabilitation has gained attention as a potential strategy to enhance perioperative outcomes. This meta-anal...

Sirtuin 4 knockout exacerbates cardiac injury in septic cardiomyopathy via activating the MAPK-JNK pathway

Septic cardiomyopathy (SCM) significantly contributes to mortality among septic patients, and its mechanism is closely related to abnormal inflammatory responses. Previous studies revealed the essential role of the Sirtuin4 gene in cardiomyocyte and myocardial function; however,...

Application of artificial intelligence-assisted ultrasound in the segmentation of splenic trauma

To develop an artificial intelligence(AI)-assisted ultrasound segmentation model for splenic trauma and to evaluate its clinical utility for trauma localization and contour delineation. (1) We assembled an animal ultrasound dataset comprising 4,280 images and a clinical dataset c...

Epidemiological Characteristics of Pediatric Drug Poisoning in Wenzhou, China in 2017–2024

To examine the evolving epidemiological characteristics of pediatric drug poisoning in Wenzhou, China from 2017 to 2024, focusing on temporal trends, age/sex-specific risks, and changes in poisoning intent and toxin types, and to generate evidence-based guidance for targeted prev...

Healing intervention for improving the efficiency and stability of tandem devices on industrial textured silicon

Monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells are widely regarded as the next-generation, low-cost, high-efficiency photovoltaic technology. However, achieving high-quality wide-bandgap perovskite top cells on industrial textured silicon, particularly using hybrid two-step dep...

Competing geochemical drivers and probabilistic health risk assessment of groundwater in the semi‑arid Voltaian sedimentary basin, Ghana

Groundwater in semi-arid sedimentary basins is a critical rural resource, but quality assessment is often weakened by geochemical complexity, compositional closure, class-boundary uncertainty and incomplete exposure information. In the Voltaian sedimentary basin of Ghana, previou...

PmHY5-PmMYB113-mediated anthocyanins biosynthesis underlies flower color variation in industrially important woody ornamental Prunus mume

Prunus mume (Japanese apricot) is an important ornamental woody plant cultivated for over 3000 years particularly in China and East Asia. Its flowers not only have horticultural value but are also rich in flavonoids such as anthocyanins, used in medicine and skincare products by...

Validation of the Turkish parent-reported Diabetes Eating Problem Survey-Revised (DEPS-R) for screening disordered eating behaviors in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes

Adolescents with Type 1 diabetes are at increased risk of eating disorders, which have been associated with suboptimal metabolic control and an increased risk of complications. Reliable and culturally adapted screening tools are essential for early identification. However, the pa...

Lignin migration-driven construction of reed fibers with phosphate-rich interphases and their application in flame-retardant PLA composites

Natural fiber reinforced polylactic acid (NF/PLA) composites are attractive sustainable materials, yet their broader engineering use is limited by weak interphase load transfer and rapid, dripping combustion. A lignin migration driven interphase phosphorylation strategy was propo...

Efficacy and safety of concomitant left atrial appendage closure and pulmonary vein isolation compared to left atrial appendage closure only – A meta-analysis

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke, primarily originating from the left atrial appendage (LAA). Percutaneous LAA closure (LAAC) reduces appendage-borne thromboembolism, while pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) restores sinus rh...
