Beyond the canvas: a Delphi-driven rubric for unlocking artistic giftedness

Introduction The current study aims to provide a reference and methodological evidence-based tool with particular criteria for identifying artistically gifted students at the intermediate and secondary levels in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Methods To achieve the study goals, a modified Delphi design was used, which co...

Development and validation of a nomogram for identifying the risk of oral frailty in middle-aged and elderly patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis: a cross-sectional study

Oral frailty is a common subtype of frailty that is closely related to sarcopenia, malnutrition, disability, etc. However, it is often overlooked in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Currently, research on oral frailty in MHD patients is still limited. This study aims to develop a nomogram to estimate the probab...

Empirical Bayes prepivoting under group invariance: false discovery rate control and moderated t-tests

These are the first procedures using moderated t-statistics that control the false discovery rate (FDR) in finite samples under independence across units and null group invariance, without assuming limma's hierarchical model.

Options for Compression of radio interferometry data: lossy compression of visibilities and lossless compression of uv-visibility grids for the MHONGOOSE survey

Next generation radio astronomy telescopes are challenging existing data reduction paradigms. With ever more antennas, larger bandwidths, and sometimes multiple primary beams, they often generate more observed data products than can readily be stored long-term. Thus, data storage becomes a major cost driver and process...

Agent-E2MD: Autonomous Translation of Interatomic Potential Equations into Physically Validated Pair Styles for Molecular Dynamics in LAMMPS

Agent-E2MD is introduced, a knowledge-guided agentic workflow that translates user-specified interatomic models into executable LAMMPS pair styles and demonstrates that the software architecture for an interatomic potential can be inferred from its physical and mathematical structure.

From Approval to Execution: Reconstruction-Aware Repair Analysis for LLM-Agent Software

A reconstruction-stable authorization (ReSA) is formulated over representation transitions, sink dependencies, consumed versions, and grant scope and implemented in APAS-Finder and freeze predictions before an independent sink oracle observes execution.

Association between circulating tumor DNA and the prognosis of solid tumor patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy: a meta-analysis

The meta-analysis revealed a significant correlation between positive ctDNA status and worse survival outcomes, including DFS/RFS, and ctDNA consistently predicted worse survival outcomes for patients with rectal cancer.

Cross-project Software Defect Prediction Using Divergence-based Domain Adaptation Approach

Peer Review Report For: The Impact of Green Advertising and the Mediating Role of Perceived Credibility on Consumers’ Purchase of Lontar-Based Products in Indonesia [version 1; peer review: 1 approved with reservations]

Background The growing concern over environmental issues has increased interest in eco-friendly packaging as an alternative to conventional plastic. In Indonesia, packaging made from lontar leaves represents a sustainable option that is also closely related to local resources and practices. However, consumers are often...

CD21: Python Calculation and Validation Codebase: An Executable Verification Framework for the Big Flare-Up Theory (V1)

Abstract This paper documents CD21, an executable software framework ("V1") that implements equations of the Big Flare-Up Theory (BFUT) as running code rather than static text. The current release executes a 73-row report spanning P16, P17, P18, P19/P19A, P22, P23, P26, P27, and P28; evaluates the Dark Matter Effects (...

Robustness of regulatory colocalization evidence at major depression risk loci — corrective release v2

CORRECTION OF VERSION 1 This is a corrective release, not an extension of the original findings. The earlier colocalization results are superseded because inappropriate variant-count normalization in posterior combination and cross-gene QTL record selection affected the analyses. The former 130-locus “shared mechanism”...

Publication-aware tectonic classification of global basalts

Reproducible data-processing, publication-grouped validation, temporal testing, source-coverage analysis, model artefacts, and figure-generation resources for global basalt tectonic classification. The MIT licence applies only to original software. GEOROC-derived processed data and figures are subject to CC BY-SA 4.0,...
