Correction: Modeling relationships between iron status, behavior, and brain electrophysiology: evidence from a randomized study involving a biofortified grain in Indian adolescents

My Caregiver the Cobot: Comparing Visualization Techniques to Effectively Communicate Cobot Perception to People with Physical Impairments

Nowadays, robots are found in a growing number of areas where they collaborate closely with humans. Enabled by lightweight materials and safety sensors, these cobots are gaining increasing popularity in domestic care, where they support peo...

Parental Birth-Related PTSD Symptoms and Bonding in the Early Postpartum Period: A Prospective Population-Based Cohort Study

The parent-infant bond following childbirth is an important facilitator of optimal infant development. So far, research has mainly focused on mother-infant bonding. Data on fathers are still sparse. Parental mental health, such as posttraum...

Effect of companion and midwife presence during mother-infant skin-to-skin contact on breastfeeding and postpartum pain: A clinical trail

Introduction: Skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby is very important in the first minutes after birth. Despite the great emphasis on its implementation, due to the lack of manpower and the numerous responsibilities of midwives, it i...

Data describing the poor outcome associated with a breast cancer diagnosis in the post-weaning period

Postpartum breast cancer (PPBC) - which according to new data, can extend to 5–10 years after the birth - are estimated to represent 35–55% of all cases of breast cancer in women younger than 45 years. Increasing clinical evidence indicates...

Retrieving the Imperial: Empire and International Relations

This essay uses Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri's Empire, one of the most widely read accounts of international politics in recent years, as a vehicle to rethink International Relations' engagement with the notion of empire. We begin with t...

Westphalian Eurocentrism in International Relations Theory

In the past 10–15 years, an increasing number of revisionist scholars have rejected the most significant elements of the argument about the centrality of the Peace of Westphalia (1648) to the evolution and structure of international society...

Hobbes and international relations: a reconsideration

Hobbes has long been a central figure in the theory of international relations. He has also been a badly misunderstood one. While often invoked to support contemporary theories of international politics, Hobbes's thinking actually challenge...

Sovereignty, International Relations, and the Westphalian Myth

The 350th anniversary of the Peace of Westphalia in 1998 was largely ignored by the discipline of international relations (IR), despite the fact that it regards that event as the beginning of the international system with which it has tradi...

The Myth of 1648: Class, Geopolitics, and the Making of Modern International Relations

This book rejects a commonplace of European history: that the treaties of Westphalia not only closed the Thirty Years’ War but also inaugurated a new international order driven by the interaction of territorial sovereign states. Benno Tesch...

Lifestyle interventions to maternal weight loss after birth: a systematic review

Abstract Background Over the past decades, there has been an increase in overweight and obesity in women of childbearing age, as well as the general population. Overweight and obesity are related to a later, increased risk of type 2 diabete...

Non-supersymmetric AdS from string theory

We construct non-supersymmetric $AdS_3$ solutions of the $\mathrm O(16)× \mathrm O(16)$ heterotic string. Most of the backgrounds have a classical worldsheet definition but are quantum string vacua in the sense that string loop corrections ...

Neural Networks for Postprocessing Ensemble Weather Forecasts

Abstract Ensemble weather predictions require statistical postprocessing of systematic errors to obtain reliable and accurate probabilistic forecasts. Traditionally, this is accomplished with distributional regression models in which the pa...

Economical analysis of FV power plants according installed performance

According prognosis of future development of power capacities in Slovakia till 2030 there is assumed increasing of the electricalenergy volume, produced from renewable energy sources from present 260 MW approximately to 2100 MW (Petrovič, 2...

Video-Based Deep Learning Approach for 3D Human Movement Analysis in Institutional Hallways: A Smart Hallway

New artificial intelligence- (AI) based marker-less motion capture models provide a basis for quantitative movement analysis within healthcare and eldercare institutions, increasing clinician access to quantitative movement data and improvi...

A Space-Time Partial Differential Equation Based Physics-Guided Neural Network for Sea Surface Temperature Prediction

Sea surface temperature (SST) prediction has attracted increasing attention, due to its crucial role in understanding the Earth’s climate and ocean system. Existing SST prediction methods are typically based on either physics-based numerica...

Development and validation of a predictive model for diabetic peripheral neuropathy with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Xinjiang, China

Abstract This study aims to identify risk factors associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in patients with type 2 diabetesmellitus (T2DM) and to develop a predictive model to support clinical decision-making. A total of 1,001 p...

Memristor Synapse—A Device-Level Critical Review

The memristor has long been known as a nonvolatile memory technology alternative and has recently been explored for neuromorphic computing, owing to its capability to mimic the synaptic plasticity of the human brain. The architecture of a m...
