To systematically evaluate the measurement properties of current masticatory performance (MP) assessment methods in adult populations. A systematic search was performed in the PubMed, Cochrane Library, and EBSCOhost data...

Abstract Background Lung cancer stigma (i.e., perceived and internalized negative appraisal and devaluation associated with lung cancer) is a clinically significant psychosocial concern among individuals diagnosed with l...

The challenge of context-free validity arises from the common belief that rigorous methodology ensures research credibility in various contexts, despite variations in epistemic foundations, institutional capacity, cultur...

Abstract Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) operations confront complex systemic risks that challenge traditional analytical methods. This paper develops a hierarchical Bayesian Network (BN) to quantitatively model these risk...

Abstract Synchronous reluctance motors (SynRMs) are increasingly critical in industrial and traction applications due to their high efficiency, magnet-free construction, and thermal robustness. However, fault diagnosis f...

Abstract Background The prognosis and progression mechanisms of bladder cancer (BLCA) are highly heterogeneous, driven by complex genetic and epigenetic alterations. This study aimed to construct a robust prognostic sign...

Abstract This study provides a microeconometric evaluation of Morocco's “One Million School Bags” program, with particular emphasis on its impact in rural schools where educational challenges are most pronounced. Usi...

Background: The lack of standardised rules and safety measures in traditional games limits their utility for structured physical activity and fitness promotion. In particular, the traditional Singkongan game, which invol...

Abstract Purpose Patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) exhibiting persistent EBV DNA positivity throughout treatment (a “D-D-D” trajectory) represent a high-risk group with undefined management strategies. Thi...

Abstract BackgroundArtificial intelligence (AI) integrated with point-of-care imaging is a promising approach to expand access in settings with limited specialist availability. However, no systematic review h...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast cancer with strong invasiveness, limited treatment options, and poor prognosis. Its early accurate diagnosis and individualized treatment are major challenges f...

Abstract Background Since 1990, the survival rate of very preterm (VP) infants (born 

Marker selection precision in neuronal studies is critical for reliable neuron identification. However, it largely depends on the experimental context. Variations in neuronal marker specificity across experimental models...

Recent years have seen many arguments for cosmic rays (CRs) as an important influence on galactic and circumgalactic (CGM) physics, star and galaxy formation. We present a pedagogical overview of state-of-the-art modelin...

Abstract Accurate estimation of ground motion at the surface is fundamental to seismic hazard assessment and resilient infrastructure design. The Bangladesh National Building Code (BNBC) 2020 provides generalized seismic...

Background: Despite the growing use of gymnastics programmes in early childhood education, most studies emphasise implementation and outcomes rather than the systematic development and rigorous validation of programme co...

Background: Natural disasters pose significant risks to vulnerable populations, particularly pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, who face increased health and safety challenges during emergencies. Strengthenin...
