Daytime sleepiness shapes health-related quality of life response to CPAP in obstructive sleep apnea
Abstract Improvements in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) after continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy vary widely among patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)...
Identification of key clinical features and development of a machine learning model for screening-based detection of diabetic retinopathy
Abstract Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a major cause of preventable visual impairment. Routinely collected clinical information may help prioritize patients for r...

Evaluating conditioned place preference in calves 0 and 20 days after hot-iron disbudding
Abstract Hot-iron disbudding, a routine procedure that prevents horn bud growth through cauterization, is painful for calves. The resulting burns remain sensitive to touch for weeks,...
ASC-YOLOv8n: Enhanced multi-scale feature fusion for accurate detection of four cigar appearance defects
Abstract The appearance defects of cigars can significantly compromise their overall quality, with detection currently relying mainly on manual inspection, a process that is time-con...
Synthesis and microwave absorption property of polyaniline incorporated with different weight ratios of MoSe2/MMT/rGO
Seasonal transport, retention, and river-to-ocean transfer dynamics of floating macro-debris in the Umgeni River and estuarine lagoon, South Africa
Abstract Riverine floating macroplastics are considered to contribute a substantial portion of marine plastic pollution, yet the spatiotemporal, geomorphological...

Anatomically constrained hierarchical post-processing for pediatric brain tumor segmentation
Abstract Automated segmentation of pediatric brain tumors from multi-parametric MRI is an intermediate step for clinical workflows such as treatment planning and...
Childhood trauma, specifically emotional abuse, is associated with psychiatric symptom severity in drug‑naïve first‑episode patients with schizophrenia
Abstract Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a highly heterogeneous disorder. Childhood trauma (CT) is a well‑established risk factor, although the contribution of specific C...
