Merouani and Perrin explore the representation of women inventors in historical records and discuss some of the potential biases that influence our current understanding of history. By examining a comprehensive database of nineteenth-century French patents as a case study, the authors find that women patented more frequently than contemporary biographical records suggest. Further, the authors illu
We study feedback-driven cold dark matter core creation in the edge suite of radiation-hydrodynamical dwarf galaxy simulations. Understanding this process is crucial when using observed dwarf galaxies to constrain the particle nature of dark matter. While previous studies have shown that the stellar mass to halo mass ratio (M∗/M200) determines the extent of core creation, we find that in low-mass
This study investigates coupled reduced-order modeling to develop efficient methods for analyzing the vibro-acoustic response of geometrically nonlinear thin structures interacting with acoustic fluids, such as gas or liquid. Projection-based model reduction is adopted for the structural and fluid domain. To consider geometric nonlinearity, the reduced nonlinear restoring forces of the elastic str
Background: Students can practice learning in an interprofessional environment during their education in order to enable a well-functioning cooperation between healthcare professions. The aim of interprofessional learning (IPL) is for all students to contribute with their expertise and work in teams under supervision, which has been shown to improve their understanding of their own and each other’
The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (2015–2030) promotes shared responsibility as a foundational principle for effective disaster governance, emphasizing the involvement of states, communities, private actors, and civil society. However, the principle faces criticism for its conceptual vagueness and practical limitations. This paper develops and applies a structured four-dimensional f
Sun-like stars are well represented in the solar neighbourhood but are currently underutilized, with many studies of chemical and kinematic evolution focusing on red giants (which can be observed further away) or turn-off stars (which have well-measured ages). Recent surveys (e.g. GALAH) provide spectra for large numbers of nearby Sun-like stars, which provides an opportunity to apply our newly de
Melanoma is the deadliest type of skin cancer, arising from melanocytes, and its global incidence continues to rise. Although multiple somatic mutations contribute towards melanoma development, but the BRAF mutation is the most prevalent. The FDA approval of targeted therapies for BRAF-mutant melanoma greatly increased overall survival in considerable number of patients. However, the majority of p
With the rapid development of the electric vehicle (EV) industry, the large-scale retirement of batteries has introduced multiple environmental risks and challenges to industrial sustainability. Smart circular business models (SCBMs) utilizing 10R circular strategies (i.e., Refuse, Rethink, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Refurbish, Remanufacture, Repurpose, Recycle, and Recover) present a promising soluti
Quantum Chromodynamics predicts a phase transition from hadronic matter to quark–gluon plasma (QGP) at high temperatures and energy densities, where quarks and gluons (partons) are no longer confined within hadrons. The QGP forms in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. Anisotropic flow coefficients, quantifying the azimuthal expansion of produced matter, probe QGP properties. Flow measurements
Atserias and Müller (JACM, 2020) proved that for every unsatisfiable CNF formula ℓ, the formula Ref(ℓ) stating that 'ℓ has small Resolution refutations"-does not have subexponential-size Resolution refutations. Conversely, when ℓ is satisfiable, Pudlák (TCS, 2003) showed how to construct a polynomial-size Resolution refutation of REF(ℓ) given a satisfying assignment of ℓ. A question that had remai
Climate debates often frame individual behaviour and systems change as distinct pathways to action. We suggest that social change arises from individuals’ agency within their roles in societal systems, and that this agency should be actively leveraged to achieve meaningful climate change mitigation.
Sensitive and frequent digital remote memory assessments via mobile devices hold the promise to facilitate the detection of cognitive impairment and decline. However, in order to be successful at scale, cognitive tests need to be applicable in unsupervised settings and confounding factors need to be understood. This study explored the feasibility of completely unsupervised digital cognitive assess
Background:Reports on sex differences in radiological characteristics of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are few. Sex-related differences in hematoma location, volume, and imaging markers may contribute to variations in clinical presentation and outcome. We aimed to assess sex differences in non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) features in an unselected ICH cohort.Methods:This observational stud
Debates about the future of wind and solar power are often framed around a false binary: either these technologies will continue accelerating or they are already losing momentum. Both views assume that renewables follow an S-curve with near-exponential expansion followed by slowdown. Using national deployment data, we show that renewables’ growth departs from ideal S-curves. Instead, it proceeds t
Background Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-PET usage in patients with prostate cancer is growing rapidly. Thus, novel risk-group definitions based on PSMA-PET are urgently needed for guidelines, clinical use, and trial study design. We report improved risk classification based on PSMA-PET Prostate Cancer Molecular Imaging Standardized Evaluation (PROMISE; PPP) nomograms (PPP3) to prognos
Atopic dermatitis is associated with impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL), especially in moderate-to-severe disease. The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) is the most widely used dermatology-specific measure, whereas the EuroQol Five-Dimension, Five-Level questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L), a generic preference-based instrument, assesses health status across diseases. This study examined the
The VOTS2025 is the third edition of the Visual Object Tracking Segmentation benchmark. Organised the VOT initiative, VOTS builds on 10 years of experience in organising VOT challenges. Building on the tracking setup introduced in VOTS2023, the challenge continues to integrate short-term and long-term tracking, as well as single-target and multi-target scenarios, using segmentation masks as the so
Background: Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is among the most common neurosurgical conditions, yet management strategies vary worldwide despite an expanding evidence base. To harmonize clinical practice and facilitate the establishment of transnational recommendations, the 2024 joint iCORIC/DACSUHS symposium in Copenhagen included a Delphi process on the key aspects of CSDH management. Methods: A
Background: The objective of this study was to explore the potential of Airspace Dimension Assessment (AiDA) to rapidly determine the type and severity of airway obstruction, detect emphysema in individuals with chronic airflow limitation (CAL), and distinguish it from non-emphysematous obstruction, asthma, and absence of respiratory disease with normal spirometry. Methods: Among the 744 participa
