Excessive worry is common during adolescence and across psychiatric disorders. This study investigates whether: 1) internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) focused on exposure to uncertainty is effective in reducing excessive worry; 2) improvements in worry are associated with reductions in other psychiatric symptoms; and 3) changes in intolerance of uncertainty (IU) mediates worry o

The purpose of this work is to identify and analyze the key important barriers to uptake the compressed biogas (CBG) plants in India for enhancing their role as a sustainable energy source. Initially, the barriers are identified from the past academic literature using literature review process and are then validated through the fuzzy Delphi method with expert opinions. The finalized barriers were

The legal opacity of AI technologies has long posed challenges in addressing algorithmic harms, as secrecy enables companies to retain competitive advantages while limiting public scrutiny. In response, ideas such as qualified transparency have been proposed to provide AI accountability within the confidentiality constraints. With the introduction of the EU AI Act, the foundations for human-centri

Coloured sticky traps are commonly used to monitor insect pests. Colour affects trap performance, with preferred colours often differing between species, making selection of trap colour for effective management of multiple pests challenging. Greenhouse whitefly (GWF) Trialeurodes vaporariorum and Western flower thrips (WFT) Frankliniella occidentalis, are major horticultural pests that often co-oc

Background: Cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction is a major complication in a large proportion of patients with long coronavirus disease (LC). As one of the most typical phenotypes of cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is commonly observed as a sequelae of coronavirus disease infection. Objective: This study aimed to develop and test a 24-hour el

Women have always played a central role in smallholder agriculture in many farming systems of the Global South. However, they have had, and still have, low access to agricultural information, and even less ability to enact on training or advice received, in comparison to male farmers. The paper investigates what is needed for female smallholders to better benefit from agricultural advice and train

Understanding the processes that drive phenotypic diversification and underpin speciation is key to elucidating how biodiversity has evolved. Although these processes have been studied across a wide array of clades, adaptive radiations (ARs), which are systems with multiple closely related species and broad phenotypic diversity, have been particularly fruitful for teasing apart the factors that dr

A crystallogenesis study of human transthyretin using the counter-diffusion method is described as an alternative to conventional convective vapour diffusion and batch approaches for protein crystallization. The X-ray diffraction results show systematic trends that exhibit unique patterns of crystallization and high crystal quality as well as a remarkable degree of coherence within extended crysta

INTRODUCTION: Behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) are a common driver of suffering and high care needs. We describe the Swedish BPSD registry, founded in 2010 to develop an evidence base for quality improvement in the care of patients with BPSD. Further, we illustrate the potential of the registry by evaluating how individual BPSD affects mortality. METHODS: The registry provi

In several circumstances, a level-three automated vehicle cannot continue driving in an automated driving mode and requests a human driver to take over. In this study, a series of experiments to examine how to provide a TOR was conducted. First, for forty-one persons, a HUD icon, earcon, seat vibration, and combinations were compared. The results indicated that the HUD icon-earcon and HUD icon-sea

E-poster, 2-minute presentation Statement of Problem Self-generated mobility, defined as the capacity for independent movement, plays a critical role in early childhood development. Limited mobility, often associated with conditions like cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy, poses significant developmental delays, particularly impacting physical, social, and cognitive growth. Description of the Co

Galectins are a family of carbohydrate-recognising proteins involved in regulation of cell adhesion and cell signaling, leading to roles in e.g. cancer progression, fibrosis, and ulcerative colitis. Glycomimetic galectin inhibitors based on different molecular scaffolds are known and have demonstrated effects from cell experiments to the clinic. Presented here is the synthesis and evaluation of 3-

The Schöningen 13II-4 archaeological site in Germany holds title to the most complete Paleolithic wooden hunting spears ever discovered, yet its age has never been properly settled. Initial estimates placed the site at around 400,000 years; this age was later revised to roughly 300,000 years. Here, we report age estimates for the “Spear Horizon” based on amino acid geochronology of fossils obtaine

Introduction Fatigue and altered cognitive capacity are common symptoms following cirrhosis. Patients consider information about cirrhosis difficult to understand. Health literacy levels vary among persons with chronic illnesses, which can hamper participation in and adaptation to treatment, potential restrictions and recommendations. Limited health literacy might also lead to decreased autonomy.

Combined density functional theory (DFT) and X-ray standing wave (XSW) studies have previously provided evidence for the preferential adoption of an inverted conformation of 2H-TPP on Cu(111) in contrast to the saddle conformation usually favored by porphyrin molecules adsorbed on metals. We experimentally demonstrate, via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, that the binding energies

Background/Objectives: Antibiotic resistance presents an urgent public health threat. By developing a streamlined and effective method for studying bacteriophage induction, this research marks a step further in understanding how antibiotic-resistant genes might spread across different environments. This knowledge is essential for creating strategies to reduce the spread of antimicrobial resistan

On March 30, 2022, Inno4Vac, a public-private partnership funded by the IMI2/EU/EFPIA Joint Undertaking (IMI2 JU), organised a hybrid workshop, titled “Regulatory Dialogue for Road Maps of Implementation of New Tools in Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls Dossiers.” This event brought together modellers, regulatory experts, and academic and industry professionals specialising in vaccine process
