Abstract Background Ferns, comprising epiphytic, aquatic, and terrestrial varieties, are good models to investigate plant terrestrialization. Vascular tissue represents a significant development in the terrestrial adapta...

This paper examines the interrelation between functional transformation and demographic change in small towns in Serbia, focusing on temporal and spatial disparities and uneven development trajectories. Small towns are i...

Background: Ensuring the safety and functional independence of older people is becoming increasingly important. Fall-prevention guidelines emphasize the use of highly challenging training modalities to reduce fall risk. ...

Introduction Fractures, the most common type of trauma, can cause considerable distress to patients. Pain can not only affect the comfort of fracture patients but also delay their participation in rehabilitation training...

This study aimed to isolate and characterize lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from traditional Lithuanian fermented foods and evaluate their probiotic potential, safety, and ability to produce tryptophan. Around 20 LAB isolate...

The RAG1 and RAG2 genes encode proteins essential for initiating V(D)J recombination in T cell receptor and immunoglobulin gene loci. Biallelic pathogenic variants in these genes are implicated in a spectrum of immunodef...

ABSTRACT Objective Although the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score, Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS), and Knee Society Score (KSS) are widely used for postoperative functional evaluation in patients undergo...

BackgroundEarly and effective intervention is crucial in the management of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) without large- or medium-vessel occlusion (non-LVO/MVO), which accounts for approximately 60–70% of all AIS cases. ...

Objective Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic gynaecological condition characterised by the ectopic growth of endometrial tissue; however, its molecular mechanisms remain insufficiently understood. Ferroptosis, an iron-depe...

Abstract Background Soil salinization severely restricts the growth and forage yield of Medicago sativa (alfalfa), a globally critical leguminous forage crop, yet the regulatory mechanisms governing its salt tolerance re...

Background: Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are among the commonest fractures encountered by orthopaedic surgeons. Primary goal in the treatment of DRFs is to restore articular congruity. Evidence is inconsistent about th...

Abstract Background Subjective cognitive decline and mild cognitive impairment represent critical windows for intervention as early stages of dementia progression. Although digital health interventions have shown potenti...

Aims: While robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA) improves implant positioning accuracy, it often overlooks dynamic lumbopelvic parameters, such as pelvic tilt changes between sitting and standing. These factors ...

Abstract Background/objectives Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), particularly myocardial infarction (MI) and heart failure (HF), remain global causes of morbidity and mortality, despite the current treatment options. Stem ...

Abstract Psammochloa villosa is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to tribe Stipeae (Poaceae). It is mainly distributed in the arid and sandy Inner Mongolia Plateau and adjacent areas, demonstrating remarkable resili...

Aim. To assess the structural and functional myocardial characteristics in patients with unstable angina (UA) and post-COVID-19 syndrome (PACS), stratified by smoking status. Materials and methods. The study included ...

Traditional poppy vinegar is a functional fermented food matrix enriched with diverse biomolecules that may contribute to metabolic health. In this study, the effects of thermosonication on the biomolecular profile, anti...

Plants frequently encounter diverse abiotic stresses, which require precise transcriptional regulation to maintain basic survival plasticity. The BES1 transcription factor family, a key component of brassinosteroid (BR) ...

Abstract Background Outcomes after curative-intent sarcoma surgery vary substantially and are incompletely explained by tumor-centered factors alone. Although CT-based body composition metrics provide objective host-rela...

Abstract Background Frailty is a known predictor of adverse surgical outcomes, yet its influence on functional recovery trajectories in South Asian settings remains underexplored. This study evaluated the association bet...

Abstract Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a serious and potentially life-threatening complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Functional characterization may facilitate the differentiation of the hete...

Background and objectives: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common among individuals who lead active lifestyles. A frequently used surgical approach to address this condition is ACL reconstruction (ACLR) uti...

We present HAlator, a fully automated quantum chemistry (QM) workflow for computing C–H hydricities and explore its potential in predicting the regioselectivity of electron-rich C–H functionalisation reactions. The w...

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...
