Vocal Loudness and Stability as Behavioral Indicators of Surgeons’ Non-Technical Skills

Non-technical skills (NTS) are essential for safe surgical teamwork, while objective measures of how surgeons communicate remain limited. This pilot study examined whether sentence-level vocal loudness and stability distinguish simulated good- and bad-NTS conditions and identifie...

A Note on the Drazin Inverse of 2 × 2 Block Triangular Matrices

By using the forward order law for the Drazin inverse of matrix products, we investigate the Drazin inverse of 2×2 block triangular matrices. A necessary and sufficient condition for ABOCD=ADBDOCD is presented. Notably, this condition is expressed exclusively in terms of rank equ...

First-in-human phase Ia study of the covalent TEAD palmitoylation inhibitor BPI-460372 in patients with advanced solid tumors: pharmacokinetics, exposure-limited dosing, and early antitumor activity

The Hippo pathway is a critical regulator of tumor development and progression, dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives tumorigenesis in multiple malignancies. BPI-460,372 is a first‑in‑class covalent irreversible inhibitor of transcriptional enhanced associated domain (TEAD) p...

γ‐Radionuclide Technetium‐99M Activated Long‐Lasting Chemodynamic Therapy and Immunogenic Brachytherapy for Enhanced Antitumor Immunity

ABSTRACT Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and brachytherapy face critical challenges, particularly the limited efficiency of Fenton reaction and the insufficient antitumor immunogenicity of brachytherapy. In this study, we employ the metal–organic framework nanocomposite Hf‐TCPP@Fe‐ 99...

How does explicit reliability guide choices? Effect of trustworthiness on choice and metacognition

A key challenge in today’s fast-paced digital world is to integrate information from various sources, which differ in their reliability. Yet, little is known about how explicit probabilistic information about the likelihood that a source provides correct information is used in de...

Myricetin Modulates Quorum Sensing-Associated Phenotypes, Virulence, and Biofilm Formation in Pathogenic Bacteria: In Vitro and In Silico Studies

Background/Objectives: The rapid emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among pathogenic bacteria has necessitated the development of alternative therapeutic strategies that target bacterial virulence rather than cell viability. Methods: In this study, the flavonoid myriceti...

Incorporating Advanced New or Recycled Materials in Reinforced Concrete Structures

Reinforced concrete continues to be one of the most widely used structural materials worldwide because of its versatility, availability, durability, and ability to accommodate a range of structural forms and loading conditions [...]

FoMOs-A Validation

Abstract: The Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) has become central to understanding adolescents’ engagement with social media and its psychological consequences. Given adolescents’ heightened sensitivity to peer belonging and approval, this study validated the Fear of Missing Out Scale...

Diagnostic and Management Challenges in Mixed-Source MDR Sepsis in a Kidney Transplant Recipient with an Infected Sacral Pressure Ulcer Treated with VAC Therapy: A Case Report

Background: Kidney transplant recipients are particularly vulnerable to severe infections because of chronic immunosuppression, impaired wound healing, repeated healthcare exposure, and the potential nephrotoxicity of antimicrobial therapy. We report a complex case of multidrug-r...

Oral Nano-Oxygen Modulates the Intestinal HIF-2α/NEU3/Ceramide Axis to Mitigate NAFLD

Abstract The intestinal hypoxia-inducible factor-2α (HIF-2α)/neuraminidase 3 (NEU3)/ceramide axis has emerged as an important regulator of gut–liver communication in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, systemic inhibition of HIF-2α may interfere with hepatic glucos...

Ensuring Stability for all Stages of Barmouth Viaduct Metallic Spans Replacement

Barmouth Viaduct is a 150-year-old Grade II* listed structure and a significant landmark on the north-west coast of Wales in the UK. The bridge is an access route, carrying a single-track railway, a public footpath and cycleway over an estuary. The 820 m long structure consists o...

Socioeconomic determinants of maternal and neonatal healthcare utilization among recently delivered women in Sudan

Armed conflict and economic instability can exacerbate socioeconomic inequalities in maternal and neonatal healthcare access and utilization. This study assessed the association between household income, healthcare costs, and maternal and neonatal healthcare utilization among wom...

Interfacial Multidentate Chelation Enabled Anti‐Aggregation Self‐Assembled Monolayers for High‐Performance Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells

ABSTRACT The quality of self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) and the defect density at the perovskite buried interface are key factors determining the performance of inverted perovskite solar cells (IPSCs). However, the inherent aggregation of SAM molecules at this interface limits f...

What is energy literacy? From prerequisite for participation to social practice

Energy literacy is often assumed to be a prerequisite for public participation in energy. But, it remains unclear how people's energy literacy leads to participation. This raises questions about dominant conceptualisations of energy literacy in relation to participation. We inves...

Experimental study on the in-place stability of a self-installing jack-up type 10 MW offshore wind turbine during leg lowering

A 1:25 scale model test was conducted to evaluate the motions, green water risk, and motion-induced interruption (MII) during the leg lowering steps of in-place installation for a self-installing jack-up type 10 MW offshore wind turbine. For three leg lowering steps, in which the...

Multi-locus genome-wide association study reveals the genetic architecture of kernel fat content in maize

Kernel fat content (KFC) is a key determinant of oil quality and nutritional value in maize, yet the genetic architecture underlying its natural variation remains incompletely understood. Here, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using 239 maize inbred lines genot...

Effects of synergistic ultrasonic–NaClO treatment on coal microstructure at different liquid saturations

Efficient coalbed methane (CBM) extraction is important for safe coal mining and for utilizing this gas as a relatively clean energy resource. Low–permeability coal is generally characterized by a compact matrix and poorly connected pore–fracture networks, which restrict methane...

Distributions of mesh patterns of short lengths on separable permutations

This paper contributes to the long line of research on the distribution of mesh patterns in permutations. We extend these studies to separable permutations and carry out a comprehensive analysis of mesh patterns of length at most~2. For mesh patterns of length~1, we determine the...
