Abstract Background To improve the visualisation of colorectal cancer (CRC) and its metastatic lymph nodes (LNs), we developed a second near-infrared window (NIR-II; 1000–1700 nm) fluorescent probe using a monoclonal ...

Ovitraps are a widely used method for mosquito detection and monitoring, especially Aedes mosquitoes. Eggs present in ovitraps must be routinely counted to generate up-to-date information on potential spread of mosquito-...

This paper explores social representation theory and its relevance for the understanding of how individuals construct and collectively share knowledge about the social world. It seeks to answer questions related to why a...

Within the European context, there are many initiatives for PhD supervisory training already in existence, but a more systematic approach to this task would be needed. In this landscape, we took the initiative of organiz...

Topicality of comparative study in Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) is determined by the need to deepen analysis of economic activity challenges and opportunities related to cross-border investments. Research in FDI tren...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming modern workplaces by offering opportunities to enhance employee well-being while simultaneously introducing significant challenges. Although scholarly interest in the intersec...

Abstract Background Malaria remains a major public health challenge in Benin, particularly among children under five years of age. Despite the wide deployment of vector control measures the disease burden remains high. B...

Urban informality and climate change pose significant challenges for urban planning in rapidly growing cities in the Global South. This study conducts a qualitative content analysis of 45 spatial planning instruments add...

Abstract In this paper, we investigate the dynamical behaviour and soliton solutions of the M-fractional Kairat-II equation. Initially, soliton solutions are obtained using the new extended direct algebraic method. To en...

Today, when managers are faced with radical paradigm shifts, researchers are closely following the phenomenon of the digitalization of the decision-making process. Discussing various advantages and disadvantages, as ...

To bridge the gap in visualization and interactivity found in traditional chemistry tools, this study developed an AR-powered comic using differentiated instruction to help students navigate the spatial complexities of m...

Introduction: Renal vascularisation variants differ significantly between individuals due to the complex embryogenesis of the kidneys. Understanding the anatomy of the renal vascular pattern is essential for conducting v...

Abstract Background The clinical success of maxillary expansion depends largely on the degree of maturation of the midpalatal suture (MPS). Although cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) allows direct visualisation of the...

The rapid proliferation of digital devices has generated vast amounts of data, presenting significant challenges in collection, processing, and analysis that traditional systems struggle to overcome. This study investiga...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is playing an increasingly pivotal role in driving innovation and promoting sustainable development across various sectors amid the ongoing wave of industrial revolutions. However, the existi...

As cities experience the digital transformation of the information era, informed decision-making becomes a first-hand necessity. Urban Digital Twins (UDTs), as the natural evolution of the smart city, are digital replica...

Background and purpose: The use of Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) for radiotherapy (RT) planning for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA NSCLC) could improve RT precision due to its superior soft tissue def...

The MobiDB database (URL: https://mobidb.org/) provides predictions and annotations for intrinsically disordered proteins. Here, we report recent developments implemented in MobiDB version 4, regarding the database forma...

Liquid crystals (LCs) are synthetic and biological viscoelastic anisotropic soft matter materials that have a combination of fluidity of liquids and anisotropy of solids and find use in optical devices, sensor/actuators,...

Abstract Background Reporting standards, such as PRISMA aim to ensure that the methods and results of systematic reviews are described in sufficient detail to allow full transparency. Flow diagrams in evidence syntheses ...

Abstract The research question guiding the production of the youth employment evidence and gap map (EGM) is stated as follows: What is the nature and extent of the evidence base of impact evaluations and systematic revie...

The huge rise in the number of medical images has caused a major problem in radiology departments. Radiologists are now working harder than ever, which affects the quality of their diagnoses and patient care. It takes 15...

The objective of this study is to examine the deficiencies in the comprehension and implementation of intellectual property rights by regional financial institutions when providing support to corporate business activitie...

This paper aims to present a Statistical Analysis Software (SAS) macro %BBIplus, offering estimation and visualisation methods for the Bang’s Blinding Index (BBI) for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) with various de...
