Young adults use a combination of coping strategies to deal with challenges. Yet, limited research has focused on these combinations, as they differ across different profiles of youth and their implications during the major life transitions of emerging adulthood. Addressing this gap, the present longitudinal person-centered study assesses the nature, stab ...

Fine-grained aspect-based sentiment analysis requires language models to identify aspect entities and the corresponding sentiment information in the input text content. Transformer-based pre-trained large language models have demonstrated remarkable performance on various challenging natural language processing tasks. However, large language models face l ...

Many microorganisms are able to use plant-derived aromatic and cyclic compounds like the common plant secondary metabolite quinic acid as carbon and energy sources. In fungi, three enzymatic steps convert quinic acid into the common intermediate protocatechuic acid, which is then further converted into TCA cycle intermediates. The genes encoding these thr ...

Genomics analysis confirmed the status of filamentous fungi as a rich source of novel secondary metabolites; however, the discovery of these compounds is hampered by the cryptic nature of their biosynthetic pathways under laboratory conditions. Consequently, despite substantial research effort ov ...

Organophosphate esters (OPEs) have emerged as a global environmental and health concern due to their persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) properties. Recently, their precursors-organophosphite antioxidants (OPAs)-and transformation products, which may exhibit greater persistence and toxicity, have gained attention as critical contributors to OPE-r ...

Sulfur autotrophic denitrification (SAD) offers a sustainable solution for nitrogen removal in low carbon to nitrogen ratio (C/N) municipal wastewater, yet its efficiency and startup time pose significant challenges. To overcome these, we developed iron-sulfur-modified carriers (FeS@MC) and integrated them into an in-situ sequencing batch reactor (S-Fe-SB ...

Inconsistencies in the identification of predictors for the transition from acute low back pain (aLBP) to chronic LBP (cLBP) may be attributed to the varying definitions of aLBP used in different studies. We investigated how adopting different aLBP definitions affects the set of predictors and th ...

Super-resolution imaging has emerged as a rapidly advancing field in diagnostic ultrasound. Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (ULM) achieves sub-wavelength precision in microvasculature imaging by tracking gas microbubbles (MBs) flowing through blood vessels. However, MB localization faces challenges due to dynamic point spread functions (PSFs) caused by ...

Efforts to control, repress, and punish drug use and queer and trans existence are rising as right-wing extremism becomes increasingly mainstream. These connected efforts are seen through the stifling of bodily autonomy and agency using criminal-legal, biomedical and political apparatuses, and ha ...

Well-defined acid-degradable amphiphilic block copolymers (ABPs) and their nanoassemblies labeled with acid-labile groups have been developed for smart drug delivery, exhibiting controlled/enhanced release of therapeutics in tumoral tissues and endo/lysosomes. In general, controlled polymerization techniques, particularly atom transfer radical polymerizat ...

Water droplet erosion (WDE) is a critical degradation phenomenon that significantly affects component lifespan and performance in power generation, aerospace, and wind energy industries. The incubation period-the initial phase before visible material loss occurs-is particularly crucial for maintenance planning and material selection yet remains challengin ...
