Abstract Multiple drivers of global change are causing rapid biodiversity loss worldwide. However, predicting species’ trajectories remains challenging due to the dynamic and state-dependent nature of ecological respon...

Background and Aim: Ticks and tick-borne diseases (TBD) continue to pose a significant threat to livestock production and rural livelihoods in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The control of ticks has relied predominantly on th...

Abstract Background Entomological outcomes are critical for understanding the biological mechanisms and operational performance of malaria vector control interventions. However, the quality and consistency of how these o...

Abstract Background Commercially-available microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knees are unable to fully replicate the biomechanical function of the missing biological limb. While powered prostheses have the capacity to...

Mitochondrial dysfunction is a convergent hallmark of biological aging and a mechanistically attractive target for gerotherapeutic development. Yet translation of mitochondria-focused interventions has been limited by pa...

Abstract Introduction A substantial proportion of patients with bipolar disorder experience daily variability in mood that seems associated with poor prognostic factors, including impaired functioning, and increased risk...

Brassica oilseeds are important protein crops for Nordic agriculture. Oilseed production is challenged by multiple insect pests, most importantly the pollen beetle (Brassicogethes aeneus). Concerns about pyrethroid resis...

Abstract This study investigates changes in stress parameters in individuals with schizophrenia spectrum disorders participating in mindfulness-based group therapy (MBGT). N = 45 participants were randomised to MBGT ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Bangladesh has dramatically reduced its malaria burden since 2000, confining the disease to specific geographic zones. However, the national 2030 elimination goal is now threatened by a compl...

Legged robots, particularly quadrupeds, have emerged as an essential research focus for traversing unstructured environments where wheeled systems are limited. This paper presents a novel Multi-Level Cognitive Control Ar...

ABSTRACT Background and Aim Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been a growing crisis of economic, clinical, and public health concern for years. Different mechanisms of why and how AMR develops have been suggested and st...

Abstract Background Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) have been proposed to support post-stroke motor recovery, but evidence for domain-specific behavioral effects and associated neural mechanisms remains l...

Abstract INSPIRE-PNRM+ (short for InterdiSciPlinary and InteRsectoral telemedIcal Evaluation, Coordination and Therapy at the ParkinsonNet RheinMain+) is an one-year, multicentre, interventional, open-label, two-arm, 1:1...

Abstract Cognitive deficits are a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and effective treatments remain elusive. Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), a non-invasive technique, has shown potential in imp...

Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies have achieved clinical success in autologous treatment of hematological malignancies. However, their broader application remains limited. Beyond the biological ch...

Abstract Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) needs inter-disciplinary care through pre-hospital resuscitation, emergency and neurosurgical care, neurocritical care, and structured neurorehabilitation to maximize surv...

Abstract In agricultural environments, nitrification inhibitors (NIs), both synthetic and biological, are widely used to reduce nitrogen (N) losses through various mechanisms. Two plant residues were selected to evaluate...

Abstract The massive production of plastics, together with inadequate waste management, has intensified the problem of plastic pollution. Recently, the scientific community has increasingly investigated the interactions ...

BackgroundCo-exposure to noise and microwave radiation occurs frequently. The central nervous system has been identified as a sensitive target organ for both noise and microwave exposure individually, and the underlying ...

Abstract Fatty acid ethanolamides (FAEs) are bioactive lipids with amphiphilic properties and potential as prodrugs. In this study, a homologous series of FAEs (C8:0–C18:0) was evaluated for solubility, hydrophobicity,...

Abstract Maize (Zea mays L.) is a critical crop for food security and economic well-being in Uganda, yet yields remain below the threshold among smallholder farmers (2–3 t/ha). This is attributed to nutrient-depleted f...

Abstract Background Demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) can serve as a novel scaffold for dental tissue regeneration. This study aimed to assess the impact of two distinct sterilizing methods on morphology of Allo-DDM as w...

Abstract Background Telomere length (TL), a biomarker of biological aging, but its association with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) remains unclear. Methods We estimated TL in whole-genome sequencing data from 35,014 Alzheime...
