Panel Spatial Autoregression with an Unknown Transformation of the Weight Matrix

Abstract We introduce nonlinearities in analyzing spatial panel data by allowing for an unknown matrix analytic transformation of the spatial weights matrix. The proposed model can be estimated using only O ( n ) parameters which is a vast reduction in parameters when compared to...

Reintroducing Ratzinger to Wittgenstein

Abstract Tracey Rowland has recently written a chapter on Ratzinger’s view of Wittgenstein and notes that he interprets Wittgenstein as a logical positivist whose philosophy fails to seek truth itself. This reading of Wittgenstein lacks a serious engagement with the English Domin...

A reproducible single-surgeon technique for buccal mucosa graft harvest in urethroplasty using circumferential oral retraction: technique description and case series

Abstract Background Buccal mucosal graft (BMG) urethroplasty is widely considered the standard technique for urethral reconstruction using a graft. Although graft placement techniques have been extensively described, less attention has been given to optimizing graft harvesting. C...

LAB #3864 NEUTRAL: LEDGER BENCH: Apply filter: Quarterly phase = ACCUMULATION — improves win rate from 32.5% to 45.5% ( — E8 Intelligence Research

IDEA: Adjustment made to the live model — verify against the backtests: Apply filter: Quarterly phase = ACCUMULATION — improves win rate from 32.5% to 45.5% (+13.0pp, n=134) SAME-WINDOW EFFECT: Applying the ACCUMULATION filter would have blocked 6 of the 10 live trades (all rizzy...

A local discontinuous Galerkin method for Dirichlet boundary control problems

Abstract In this paper, we consider control constrained L 2 -Dirichlet boundary control of a convection−diffusion equation on a two dimensional convex polygonal domain. We discretize the control problem based on the local discontinuous Galerkin method with piecewise linear ansatz...

Forecasting and Structural-Break Characterisation of Water Cut in a Mature Heavy Oil Field: A Multi-Regime Analysis of the Gorisht-Kocul System (2000–2016)

This study characterises and forecasts monthly water cut in the mature Gorisht-Kocul heavy oil field of southern Albania across 204 monthly observations spanning 2000 to 2016. The record is held in two parallel sets of archival year tables, and a physical-consistency framework bu...

Optimization of Circle-Seq improves transcription error profiling and transcriptome representation

Errors in transcription generate transient RNA variants that are amplified through translation, with potential consequences for cellular phenotypes and RNA-based therapeutics. Accurate detection of these rare events relies on high-fidelity sequencing approaches such as Circle-Seq...

The shape of a private pair redistributes its cost: private pairs as a property of the code (with the shannon repository, Stages 2-2W-2)

A companion note (doi:10.5281/zenodo.22979509) proves that the Polak–Schrijver 367-word code in C7⊠5 admits exactly eight private pairs. This note explains why the number of private pairs is not, by itself, a lever for the gadget recursions behind the recent lower bounds on Θ(C7)...

Pediatric and Adolescent Cancers Among American Indian and Alaska Native Peoples

OBJECTIVES To understand the burden of cancer in American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) children (0–14 y) and adolescents (15–19 y), and determine relative burden of cancer compared with other racial and ethnic groups. METHODS We used the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Res...

Biceps augmentation in dynamic anterior stabilization: A novel on-lay technique for challenging shoulder instabilities

Management of anterior shoulder instability in the presence of subcritical glenoid bone loss or poor anteroinferior capsulolabral tissue quality remains challenging, as isolated soft-tissue repair (e.g. Bankart repair) is often associated with suboptimal outcomes. Dynamic anterio...

Designing Surprise Bags for Surplus Foods

Problem definition: Surplus-food marketplaces, such as Too Good To Go, enable retailers to monetize leftover inventory and reduce food waste by selling discounted “surprise bags.” Participating stores, however, face complex operational challenges. They must jointly set a reservat...

Artificial intelligence-based thigh muscle volume profiling on CT in elderly East Asian patients with hip fracture

Background Skeletal muscle mass and quality are critical determinants of outcomes in hip fracture patients. However, most prior studies have relied on 2D cross-sectional area measurements, which may not accurately reflect the complex 3D muscle distribution. This study aimed to qu...

Pulse intensity threshold regulates electroporation Nanodelivery: biological mechanisms and signaling Cascade

Abstract Background Reversible electroporation enhances nanoparticle internalization, but the coordinated regulation of delivery efficiency and cellular responses by pulse parameters remains unclear. This study aims to elucidate the regulatory logic underlying gradient electric p...

A Bioethical Analysis of a Recent Case Regarding Surrogacy in Russia

Abstract This article examines a recent Russian surrogacy case through a bioethical and socio-legal lens to assess the regulation of commercial surrogacy, the public response it generated, and the role of bioethics in contemporary Russian debate. Focusing on a criminal case invol...

VALUES OF GRAVITY, SPEED OF LIGHT AND TIME

This article examines the mathematical relationships among gravity, the speed of light, and time, using established physical equations and a proposed interdisciplinary research framework. It presents gravitational quantities associated with planetary bodies, explores the factor (...

Risk of New-onset Mood Disorders following Coronavirus Disease 2019: A Large-scale Retrospective Cohort Study Across Severity and Variants

Abstract Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has been linked to an increase in long-term psychiatric complications, including mood disorders, with previous research suggesting systemic inflammation, neuroinvasion, and psychosocial factors as potential cau...

Sesamin as a Context-Dependent Redox Modulator: Interactions with Organelle Quality Control and Regulated Cell Death

Sesamin is a furofuran lignan in sesame with reported antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, metabolic, and anticancer activities. However, its biological effects vary according to exposure, metabolism, cellular state, and stress-response capacity. This review examines sesamin as a cont...

Genetic diversity of Caracu cattle reveals contrasting trends between general and closed populations

Abstract The conservation of genetic diversity and control of inbreeding rate are fundamental factors in animal breeding programs, especially programs for adapted cattle breeds such as Caracu. However, there are still knowledge gaps regarding the population structure of this bree...
