The premiere of the film National Pride: From Jericho to Gaza (Fierté Nationale: De Jéricho vers Gaza) was held at Visions du Réel in Nyon, Switzerland, April 8, 2025.

The best fixation target revisited : New insights from retinal eye tracking

In many tasks, participants are instructed to fixate a target. While maintaining fixation, the eyes nonetheless make small fixational eye movements, such as microsaccades and drift. Previous work has examined the effect of fixation point design on fixation stability and the amount and spatial extent of fixational eye movements. However, much of this work used video-based eye trackers, which have i

Early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction via hub genes identified by integrated weighted gene co-expression network analysis

Background: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Circulating endothelial cells (CECs) have been reported to be involved with the early stages of AMI. The specific objective of our study was to discover early diagnostic markers of CECs in circulation using bioinformatics analysis. Methods: Raw microarray data of the GSE66360 dataset were acquire

Injury rates following conducted electrical weapons and other less-lethal force modalities in real-life police settings : a comparative literature review

The aim of this study was to rank the rate and risk ratio of subject injury following exposure to less-lethal force modalities in real-life police interventions. The purpose was to observe whether the use of conductive electrical weapons (CEW) qualifies as a low-risk modality of force, with a similar risk of adverse health outcomes as exposure to other less-lethal modalities, such as physical forc

Healthcare Use and Non-Recovery in Patients With Spinal Disorders

Background: The association between different patterns of healthcare use and non-recovery in patients with spinal disorders is unclear. We aimed to assess the association between healthcare use and non-recovery 6 months after a specialist evaluation in Norwegian secondary care and whether non-recovery was linked to adherence to specialist-recommended care. Methods: This observational registry-base

Nutritional outcomes and impact of malnutrition in a randomised comparison between standard and prolonged time to surgery after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for oesophageal cancer

Background: Prolonged time to surgery (TTS) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) may enable malnourished oesophageal cancer patients' nutritional status to recover better, possibly improving outcomes with fewer complications and better overall survival (OS) after oesophagectomy. Methods: This is a substudy within a multicentre randomised controlled trial comparing outcomes in patients with o

Three-dimensional ultrastructural characterization of Drosophila melanogaster hygrosensilla across humidity conditions

Understanding how organisms detect environmental humidity remains a fundamental problem in sensory biology. While specialised sensory neurons in insect antennae can detect changes in humidity, the mechanism underlying this ability is not fully understood. Here, we present an integrated approach combining precise humidity control, rapid cryo-preservation, and serial block-face scanning electron mic

Urban practice in extremis : Resettlement policy, life-threatening housing, and social change in Mumbai

Cities today grapple with crises of inequality, governance, and environmental challenges. Scholarship must also adapt to these evolving issues by developing new practices and generating relevant scholarship. This article examines a case of ‘social extremis’—severe socio-political conditions that threaten or limit life—and explores social practices that challenge such conditions. The study focuses

Dietary Modifications in IBS Leads to Reduced Symptoms, Weight, and Lipid Levels : Two Randomized Clinical Trials

Background/Objectives: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is presented with both gastrointestinal and extraintestinal symptoms. In addition, overweight/obesity and metabolic syndrome is prevalent in IBS. Dietary interventions with a low content of fermentable oligo-, di-, and monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAP) or a starch- and sucrose-reduced diet (SSRD) efficiently reduce symptoms and weight. Our h

A Reinforcement Learning Approach Based on Group Relative Policy Optimization for Economic Dispatch in Smart Grids

The Economic Dispatch Problem (EDP) plays a critical role in power system operations by trying to allocate power generation across multiple units at minimal cost while satisfying complex operational constraints. Traditional optimization techniques struggle with the non-convexities introduced by factors such as valve-point effects, prohibited operating zones, and spinning reserve requirements. Whil

A Comprehensive Review of the Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, Risk Factors, and Treatment Strategies for Retinoblastoma

The retinoblastoma gene (RB1), which is located on chromosome 13q14.2, is mutated in retinoblastoma (RB), the most common malignant intraocular tumor in children. About 8000 new cases of retinoblastoma are diagnosed globally each year, accounting for approximately 1 in 17,000 live births. RB is prototypically considered hereditary by nature as thirty to forty percent of cases have autosomal domina

Asymmetries in the LMC velocity maps

Context. The analysis of precise Gaia DR3 astrometry in the LMC region has revealed asymmetric patterns in the bar quadrupole and the disc outskirts of the LMC in-plane velocity maps. Aims. We aim to quantify the asymmetries detected in the LMC radial and residual tangential velocity maps, and determine whether they are generated naturally due to the LMC’s interaction with the SMC. Methods. We ana

Embracing Scientific Debate in Brain Metabolism

Brain metabolism is a fascinating and exciting research topic. Many new metabolic features of the brain continue to be unveiled and much remains to be discovered. To truly enable scientific progress, it is imperative that discoveries and theories are continually challenged through scholarly discussion. Here we address an earlier editorial by Bolaños et al. 2025 to underline the importance of embra

Waiting time in diagnosis and extirpative surgery and association with survival and stage progression in upper tract urothelial carcinomas

Objectives: To investigate the association between waiting time and outcomes in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinomas (UTUC). Patients and methods: We studied a population-based cohort of 858 patients in BladderBaSe 2.0 subjected to extirpative surgery for UTUC 2015–2019 in Sweden. Diagnostic waiting time (from referral to diagnosis, reference <1 week), treatment waiting time (from diagn

Chebyshev Polynomials Related to Jacobi Weights

We investigate Chebyshev polynomials corresponding to Jacobi weights and determine monotonicity properties of their related Widom factors. This complements work by Bernstein from 1930 to 1931 where the asymptotical behavior of the related Chebyshev norms was established. As a part of the proof, we analyze a Bernstein-type inequality for Jacobi polynomials due to Chow et al. Our findings shed new l

Attachment representations in pre-adolescents at familial high risk of schizophrenia or bipolar disorder and population-based controls—Characteristics of attachment from middle childhood to pre-adolescence, and its relation to parental functioning and child mental disorder

Background: Development of secure attachment is crucial to establish and maintain healthy relationships with others throughout life. For parents with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, challenged parental functioning may compromise the sensitive caregiving needed to establish secure child attachment. We aimed to examine pre-adolescent attachment, predictors related to caregiving, and middle childh
