Prevalence and Determinants of Anemia Among Adolescent Girls in Rural Bihar, India: A Community-based Cross Sectional Study

Abstract Objective: To estimate the prevalence of anemia and identify associated risk factors among adolescent girls in rural Bihar. Materials and Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 371 adolescent girls aged 10–19 years using systematic random sa...

Hybrid quantum learning based fault detection method for an active distribution system

Abstract Modern distribution systems with integrated renewable energy sources exhibit complex fault behaviour due to inverter-based generation and bidirectional power flow, making conventional protection methods less reliable. This paper presents a PMU-based fault detection frame...

Giving the Emperor clothes: operationalizing AI ethics principles in corporations

Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies raise enormous questions for society and how we should live. For corporations, AI raises questions about how organizations ought to incorporate principles and other forms of ethical guidance into their work. The movement from the...

Analysis of bacteriophage diversity in Ganga river ecosystem: insights from metagenome-based sequencing

Water from the Ganga River and its tributaries is the main freshwater resource in the northern parts of India and has experienced rigorous ecological deterioration because of the continuous discharge of untreated polluted industrial and household effluents, resulting in increased...

Day-case open lumbar spine surgery: a United Kingdom experience

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety, feasibility, and clinical outcomes of day-case open lumbar spine surgery performed in a stand-alone surgical hub in the United Kingdom. METHODS: A retrospective review was conducted of patients undergoing day-case open lumbar decompression or di...

A Blackbox Access to Load Forecasting Models Is All You Need to Breach Privacy

Machine learning and deep learning models play a crucial role in optimizing smart grid operations. While offering valuable utility, concerns arise regarding their exposure of sensitive information. Previous studies have focused on optimizing load forecasting models, such as Long...

Translating Ethnomedicinal Knowledge Into Evidence-Based Assessment: Evaluating the Safety of Rhus coriaria L. (Sumac) During Pregnancy

Rhus coriaria L. (sumac) is a traditional spice and medicinal plant widely used in Kurdish and Middle Eastern cultures. Its bioactive polyphenols—particularly gallic acid, quercetin derivatives, tannins, and anthocyanins—confer antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial ac...

First Two Years of (Multi-Sensor) Airborne Campaigns with the ARES Observatory

Since 2024, the ARES (Airborne Research of the Earth System) Observatory at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, has operated the Airborne Visible and Infrared Imaging Spectrometer-4 (AVIRIS-4) instrument, complemented since 2025 by a Riegl VQ-1560 II-S airborne laser scanner w...

Scaling behavior of the fractional Maxwell model parameters for semidilute entangled polymer solutions and its application for predicting linear viscoelastic properties

We report that the parameters of the fractional Maxwell model (FMM) for semidilute entangled polymer solutions can be superimposed onto master curves by applying the scaling rules of the correlation blob theory. The FMM is parametrized by four terms—the quasimoduli parameters V a...

Mussel-Mimetic Polyethylene Glycol–Protocatechualdehyde-Modified Polysiloxane Dressing for Wound Healing

Abstract Wound damage caused by dressing–wound adhesion during removal remains a common clinical complication. Polysiloxane dressings offer the advantage of low irritation during removal; however, their practical application remains restricted by poor adhesive performance and phy...

The Limits of Regionalism in Achieving Effective Spatial Outcomes

Abstract Institutional quality matters and decentralisation and regionalisation should be in service of this overall aim. This paper, in putting forward this simple proposition, lays out evidence on regionalisation, decentralisation and institutions. Despite an assumption that th...

Analysis of Oligopeptides from Pilose Antler Using Tandem Mass Tags Combined with Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography-Q-Orbitrap/Mass Spectrometry

Reports on oligopeptides derived from pilose antler remain scarce. There is an urgent need to establish a robust analytical method for detecting and characterizing these compounds. In this study, oligopeptide extracts from pilose antler were labeled with tandem mass tag (TMT) rea...

Conformal ZrC Interphase for ZrB2 Ceramics from a Solvent-Activated Metallopolymer

Abstract Implementing the advantages of preceramic polymers in modern ultra-high temperature ceramic (UHTC) manufacturing remains a significant challenge due to the limited preceramic polymer chemistry, which often is not fully amenable to ceramic processing conditions. Here, we...

Mathematical Resolution of Ill-Posedness in Padé-Based Subgroup Parameter Calculation via Regularization and Pole–Residue Constraints

The Padé-based method for subgroup parameter calculation in resonance self-shielding analysis is ill-posed: the truncated overdetermined system, the Vandermonde-type coefficient matrix, and the unenforced pole–residue structure jointly produce unstable poles and subgroup paramete...

Mapping motivation profiles and perceived role value appreciation in research project management

Purpose To investigate the motivational profiles of research project managers (RPMs) using self-determination theory (SDT) and explore their correlation with perceived organizational role value appreciation. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative cross-sectional online survey...
