Stabilization Mechanism and Rheological Behavior of Temperature- and Salinity-Resistant Gels Based on AM/AMPS Polymers

This study investigates the stabilization mechanisms and rheological behaviors of AM/AMPS-based gels with varying AMPS content, revealing that while higher AMPS content (60%) enhances thermal stability, lower AMPS content (30%) yields stronger plugging pressure due to a more brittle rheological profile, thereby providing critical insights for optimizing gel properties for high-temperature, high-salinity oilfield water shutoff applications.

Molecular Mechanism of p-Hydroxybenzoic Acid in Promoting the Pathogenicity of Fusarium oxysporum: A Multi-Omics Study Based on Transcriptome, Metabolome, and HPLC-MS Analysis

This multi-omics study reveals that p-hydroxybenzoic acid enhances the pathogenicity of *Fusarium oxysporum* by significantly upregulating beauvericin production and conidiospore formation through the modulation of amino acid metabolism pathways, while simultaneously inhibiting fusaric acid synthesis.

ScaleComm learns ligand-receptor-specific spatial scale and context for spatial cell-cell communication

ScaleComm is a graph-wavelet framework that infers ligand-receptor-specific spatial communication by learning distinct effective spatial scales and context features for each pair, thereby improving the accuracy and biological relevance of cell-cell interaction detection in spatial transcriptomics data.

Systemic Autonomic Stabilization and Biopsychosocial Recovery via Transcutaneous Cervical Vagus Nerve Stimulation

This 4-week longitudinal study on 20 healthy females demonstrates that transcutaneous cervical vagus nerve stimulation (tcVNS) significantly reduces symptoms across multiple biopsychosocial domains, including somatic issues, digestion, sleep, and appetite, likely by promoting systemic autonomic stabilization and desensitizing the trigeminocervical complex.

Wavy-Flame Stabilization of Low-Concentration Coal Mine Methane in a Porous Media Burner with Non-Uniform Gas Intake

This study demonstrates that introducing spatially non-uniform gas intake in a porous media burner creates a stable wavy flame front with enhanced heat recirculation, significantly expanding the operating limits and minimizing emissions for low-concentration coal mine methane combustion.

Making Clinical Reasoning Visible in Nurse Practitioner Education: A Scoping Review of Teaching Strategies, Assessment Approaches and Evidence Gaps

This scoping review of seven studies on nurse practitioner education reveals that while diverse teaching and assessment strategies exist, the most effective approach for developing clinical reasoning involves mechanisms that require learners to externalize and iteratively revise their thinking, highlighting a critical need for future multi-site, longitudinal research to validate the transfer of these skills into authentic practice.

Seroprevalence against Sars-Cov-2 among blood donors in Niamey, Niger, from October 2021 to March 2022

This cross-sectional study conducted in Niamey, Niger, from October 2021 to March 2022 utilized systematic random sampling of 3,656 blood donors to demonstrate that this population serves as an effective epidemiological sentinel, revealing a high overall SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence (53–65%) with significant variations by vaccination status, age, and blood group, thereby validating the utility of blood donor surveillance for tracking viral circulation and informing public health strategies.
