Soil erosion poses a significant environmental challenge in Dehradun due to its complex, steep terrain, heavy rainfall, and rapid urbanization. This study employed a Google Earth Engine-based approach to assess the average soil loss annually using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE). The analysis used various factors, including rainfall-runoff erosivity (R), soil erodibility (K), slop
Plastic’s unique properties are vital for a sustainable future, but its excessive global use signifies consumer society’s wastefulness, often found in short-lived products. Plastic development has overlooked recycling needs, resulting in low material recycling due to a wide array of plastic types with varying additives, leading to recycling challenges. Research focused on thermoplastics aims to re
One of the structuring logics behind the creation of news beats is the geographical one: that is, national, foreign and local news desks. Foreign and local beats, in particular, have a lot in common: the coverage of different geographical contexts increases the diversity and plurality of views; reporting from geographical peripheries is always the costliest in terms of production; the audience is
Aims: Using a longitudinal approach, the aim of this study was to examine whether baseline engagement in arts and culture was associated with a decline from ‘Good’ to ‘Poor’ health at follow-up. Methods: Self-rated health (SRH) and engagement in six cultural activities among randomly selected Danish adults (⩾15 years) were assessed using data from the Danish Health and Wellbeing Survey in 2019. On
The criteria for Brief Resolved Unexplained Events (BRUE) are used to stratify the risk in infants presenting with apneic episodes. However, these criteria often classify a high proportion of infants as higher risk. This study aimed to investigate the etiology of apneic episodes, particularly those compatible with BRUE, and to assess whether age ≤60 days is associated with serious underlying condi
Dominant-inactivating mutations in the colony stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF1R) cause CSF-1R related leukoencephalopathy (CRL), an adult-onset neurodegenerative disease that is modeled in the Csf1r+/– mouse. CRL is caused by microglial dysfunction. However, the primary microglial deficit, is unknown. To address this question, we employed single-nucleus RNA sequencing of brains from young Csf1r
The case presents the Itajuru, a complementary municipal currency in the City of Cabo Frío used in the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.The reader gains insight into the political and economic context in which the Brazilian municipal currencies are introduced, as well as the trade-offs of the various options for designing and governing a municipal currency. The case concludes by presenting students
This editorial introduces the special issue on the geography of innovation and sustainability transitions in the bioeconomy, situating the bioeconomy as a policy-driven transformation project with strong regional and multi-scalar implications. The special issue contains six papers that focus on different parts of the bioeconomy and employ a wide range of empirical approaches; jointly, they provide
UNLABELLED: In prostate cancer, androgen receptor (AR)-targeting agents are very effective in various disease stages. However, therapy resistance inevitably occurs, and little is known about how tumor cells adapt to bypass AR suppression. Here, we performed integrative multiomics analyses on tissues isolated before and after 3 months of AR-targeting enzalutamide monotherapy from patients with high
Natural products originating from microorganisms have been an important source of many successful lead molecules in the drug discovery and development process. The technological advances in analytical instrumentation and the development of various omics methodologies have provided new opportunities to accelerate the discoveries of new lead structures of microbial origin. Metabolomics is a rapidly
Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting TROP2, which has recently been approved for treatment-refractory metastatic urothelial cancer (UC). However, the variability of TROP2 expression across different bladder cancer (BC) subtypes, as well as after enfortumab vedotin (EV) exposure, remains unknown. Using gene expression data from four clinical cohorts with >1400 pa
Objective: To assess the risk of suicide after a diagnosis of urinary bladder cancer (UBC) compared with the standard population and to identify potential risk factors and time dependence associated with suicide in patients with UBC. Method: We used data from the Bladder Cancer Data Base Sweden 2.0 (BladderBaSe), including all individuals aged 18 years or older, diagnosed with UBC between 1997 and
Protein-based materials rely on controlled assembly across multiple lengthscales. Key organisational features often emerge before macroscopic fibres orgels form. Yet the pathways linking molecular organisation to material formationremain poorly resolved. This is partly because structural evolution across lengthscales is rarely measured concurrently within the same sample.This thesis examines prote

Introduction: Being stigmatized because of one's weight can pose physical, mental, and social challenges. While weight stigma and its consequences are established throughout Europe, North America, and Australasia, less is known about weight stigma in other regions. The objective of this study was to identify the extent and focus of weight stigma research in Latin America, Asia, the Middle East, an
Weight stigma, defined as pervasive misconceptions and stereotypes associated with higher body weight, is both a social determinant of health and a human rights issue. It is imperative to consider how weight stigma may be impeding health promotion efforts on a global scale. The World Obesity Federation (WOF) convened a global working group of practitioners, researchers, policymakers, youth advocat
Background: The evidence-based Canadian Adult Obesity Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) released in August 2020 were developed through a systematic literature review and patient-oriented research process. This CPG is considered a paradigm shift for obesity care as it introduced a new obesity definition that is based on health not body size, incorporates lived experiences of people affected by obes
