Abstract Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) modules with distinct arrangements have been investigated, seeking design and performance enhancements. In this context, this work aims to propose a design for resist...

In this study, we developed a single-beam optical trap-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) optofluidic molecular fingerprint spectroscopy detection system. This system utilizes a single-beam optical trap to co...

The increased focus on the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the building and construction sector has heightened the demand for structural systems that reduce both material and embodied carbon. Pre-engineered buil...

IntroductionHuman alveolar echinococcosis (AE), caused by the zoonotic tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis, is an emerging disease in the Balkans. The presence of this tapeworm has been detected in several wildlife spec...

BackgroundHydatid cyst is a zoonotic infection caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. While the lungs are frequently affected, rib involvement and chest wall invasion are extremely rare, occurring in less...

Abstract Objective To evaluate whether performing preoperative urodynamic study influences postoperative urinary symptoms of women with stress urinary incontinence that underwent transobturator sling. Methods Retrosp...

Las complejas interacciones, desde el distante pasado geológico a la actualidad, entre la geosfera, que incluye la Tierra sólida, la atmósfera y la hidrosfera ?o los océanos?, y la biosfera ?o los seres vivos? consti...

The present study focused on the evaluation of critical influencing parameters of the FSW of AA6061-T6 and AA2024-T351 alloys. The materials properties of AA6061-T6 are heat-treatable alloys possessing properties of good...

Serum sickness is an immune complex-mediated hypersensitivity reaction, classically manifested by the triad of fever, rash, and arthralgias. It results from the formation and deposition of antigen–antibody complexes, l...

A new method for the prediction of the downwash angle gradient due to aircraft wings across the span of an aft horizontal tail in the incompressible regime is presented. The approach is quite general and accounts for all...

The nuclear factor kappa light-chain enhancer of activated B cells (NFKB1) pathway is a central regulator of inflammatory gene expression. NFKB1 haploinsufficiency can present with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID)...

Abstract Background South Africa is home to a rich tapestry of cultural and linguistic diversity, with 11 official spoken languages and South African Sign Language recognised as the twelfth. While this plurality reflects...

This research delves deeper into the longstanding practice of appointing heirs as leaders of funeral prayers within the cultural tapestry of the Kurai community in Bukittinggi. It endeavors to unravel the socio-cultural ...

Opioids remain central to managing moderate to severe pain, yet they also produce significant and often under-recognized effects on the immune system. In this narrative review, we synthesize evidence from 1994 to 2025 ac...

Abstract Background HIV/AIDS is a significant public health problem in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), accounting for 70% of the global disease burden. HIV mortality in SSA has declined due to expanded access to anti-retrovira...

The recognition of areas of endemism (AEs) is important for conservation biology and biogeographical regionalization. Our objective was to quantitatively identify AEs and distributional congruence patterns of native rode...

Abstract Background Antibiotic‐responsive enteropathy (ARE) is diagnosed by excluding other causes of diarrhea and when there is a short‐term response to administration of antibiotics. Objectives To characterize the ...
