Magnetorheological (MR) foams represent a class of smart materials with unique tunable viscoelastic properties when subjected to external magnetic fields. Combining porous structures with embedded magnetic particles, these materials address challenges such as leakage and sedimentation, typically encountered in conventional MR fluids while offering advanta ...

Chest X-ray (CXR) imaging plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and prognosis of viral pneumonia. However, distinguishing COVID-19 CXRs from other viral infections remains challenging due to highly similar radiographic features. Most existing deep learning (DL) models focus on differentiating COV ...

Blood perfusion delivers oxygen and nutrients to all cells, making it a fundamental feature of brain organization. How cerebral blood perfusion maps onto micro-, meso- and macro-scale brain structure and function is therefore a key question in neuroscience. Here we analyze pseudo-continuous arter ...

Background: Foster care alumni face increased health challenges across the domains of mental and physical health, yet there is a paucity of research examining the associations between care experiences, health, and sleep quality in alumni aged 30 and above. Objectives: Our exploratory mixed-method study examined the sleep quality of North American group ca ...

Managers often need to stay motivated and effectively motivate others. Therefore, they should rely on evidence-based interventions to effectively motivate and self-motivate. This research investigated how self-determination theory-based interventions affect employees' motivation dynamics and motivational consequences within short time frames (i.e., wi ...

Intuitive eating is an adaptive eating style that could help explain part of the relation between affect and eating behaviors. However, research in this area remains limited. The objectives of this study are twofold. First, we examine the relation between affect, disordered eating attitudes and behaviors (DEABs), and orthorexia nervosa (ON). Second, we in ...

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 ...

Objectives: To evaluate whether bedtime screen use is associated with sleep health and if this association varies by biological sex, age, and income among adults in Canada. Methods: Data were collected through a national stratified random population-based phone interview on sleep health among ad ...

Azole effectiveness against candidiasis can be compromised by Candida albicans resistance and tolerance, and unfortunately, few clinically useful compounds can enhance azole antifungal activities. We find that the amino acids V234, F235 and L238 of Erg11 are critical for its interaction with Ncp1, and the Ncp1-Erg11 association is important in azole respo ...

The mechanochemistry of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is a well-established field whose development has advanced the understanding and the design of both MOF materials and mechanochemical reactions. This review outlines the close and mutually beneficial interplay of these two fields over the past two decades, including the description of mechanochemical ...

The study of brain structure and change in neuroscience is commonly conducted using macroscopic morphological measures of the brain such as regional volume or cortical thickness, providing little insight into the microstructure and physiology of the brain. In contrast, quantitative Magnetic Reson ...
