Magnetic Reconnection–driven Energization of Protons up to ∼400 keV at the Near-Sun Heliospheric Current Sheet

We report observations of direct evidence of energetic protons being accelerated above ∼400 keV within the reconnection exhaust of a heliospheric current sheet (HCS) crossing by NASA’s Parker Solar Probe (PSP) at a distance of ∼16.25 solar ...

Generational Differences in Dietary Behaviours: A Cross-Sectional Study of Generations X, Y, and Z [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Background Dietary behaviours influence obesity and chronic disease. In Saudi Arabia, Westernised diets and sedentary lifestyles have driven rising obesity. This study explores generational dietary patterns to inform Saudi Vision 2030 plann...

Assessment of the learning environment among medical students at Tabuk University, Saudi Arabia: a cross-sectional study

BackgroundThe learning environment (LE) is integral to medical students’ academic performance, emotional well-being, and professional development. Students’ perceptions of their learning environment provide valuable insights for identifying...

Activation of Coagulation and Fibrinolysis in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: a Prospective Pilot Study

Introduction: Coagulation and fibrinolysis remain sparsely addressed with regards to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We hypothesized that ARDS development might be associated with changes in plasma coagulation and fibrinolysis. ...

Enhancing Psychiatry Training Using an Agentic AI Simulated Consultation Tool: Prospective Cohort Study

Abstract BackgroundCanadian psychiatry residents must demonstrate consultation competency, assessed using the standardized assessment of a clinical encounter report (STACER). However, opportunities to practice these skills and r...

Data resource profile: a nationally representative linked pregnancy cohort in Canada integrating clinical, social, and environmental data

Introduction Perinatal outcomes are shaped by clinical, social, and environmental factors, yet Canada lacks a nationally representative pregnancy cohort capturing these influences at the individual-level. This gap has limited the ability to...

Linking Data for Mothers and Babies in De-Identified Electronic Health Data.

ObjectiveLinkage of longitudinal administrative data for mothers and babies supports research and service evaluation in several populations around the world. We established a linked mother-baby cohort using pseudonymised, population-level d...

An Adaptive Architecture for Long Term Energy Programme Management

Climate change, population growth, changing energy consumption patterns and the advent of feasible renewable energy sources has prompted governments worldwide to set targets for carbon emission reductions. The transition to a ‘near zero emi...

Oxidation‐etching induced morphology regulation of Cu catalysts for high‐performance electrochemical N2 reduction

Abstract Renewable‐electricity‐driven N2 reduction is an attractive approach for ambient NH3 synthesis, but active electrocatalysts are needed to enable the N2 reduction reaction. Monolithic electrodes with active components anchored on con...

Political stability and good governance as catalysts for achieving sustainable cities, clean energy, and responsible consumption: evidence from an emerging economy

Abstract This study investigates the pivotal role of political stability, good governance, and institutional support in achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 7, 11, and 12 in Pakistan, an emerging economy. SDG 7 deals with affordab...

A multi-year analysis of Canadian Arctic historical weather data in support of solar and wind renewable energy deployment

This work explores the importance of renewable resource temporal distribution for solar and wind energy deployment in Arctic communities to meet building and ancillary loads. An analysis of ten years of historic weather data was performed f...

Concurrent frequency–voltage stabilization for hybrid microgrid with virtual inertia support

Abstract This paper presents a novel control scheme for combined frequency and voltage stabilization of an islanded multi‐generator hybrid microgrid (IHμG). The control concept incorporates an improved virtual inertia support scheme (IVIS) ...

District Heating Tariffs, Economic Optimisation and Local Strategies during Radical Technological Change

This paper addresses economic aspects of heat savings in the context of strategic heat planning. The analysis uses the city of Aalborg, Denmark, as a case where municipalisation through a recent acquisition of a coal-fired cogeneration of h...
