A Novel Homomorphic Blockchain Scheme for Intelligent Transport Services in Fog/Cloud and IoT Networks See

Modern smart city services necessitate complex technological infrastructure with heterogeneous compute servers, networks, and communication protocols. However, there are many research issues in heterogeneous computing infrastructure for Intelligent transport systems (ITS) when using the services in the network....

Spirituality and social work: theory and practice See

Spirituality, religion, and meaning are human needs that are inscribed within international social work professional standards and ethical codes. Definitions used in the social work literature cover a complex spectrum resulting in a common, though fluid, understanding. Theories such as existentia...

Swallowed by a Black Hole’: The Neglected Impact of Endometriosis in the Workplace See

This study examines how endometriosis, as a chronic and cyclical condition, is experienced and managed in contemporary workplaces, and what this reveals about the limits of existing human resource management (HRM) frameworks. Drawing on Feminist Disability Theory (FDT), we conceptualise endometri...

Decision-analytic models in the economic evaluation of community health worker programmes globally: a systematic review See

Introduction: Economic evidence on community health worker (CHW) programmes is crucial for scaling these initiatives. Although decision-analytic models (DAMs) are essential for projecting long-term value, it is unclear how rigorously they have been applied to CHW evaluations, potentially compromising ...

Phosphatidylinositol‐4,5‐bisphosphate 3‐kinase <b>(PI3K)</b> inhibitors reduce vascular inflammation <i>in vitro</i> and <i>in vivo</i> See

Background and Purpose: Endothelial cells play central roles in increasing vascular permeability and leukocyte recruitment. Therapeutic approaches for treating endothelial cell barrier dysfunction to reduce unwanted fluid accumulation in tissues are limited. Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K)&#x...

Deciphering the Role of Cancer Stem Cells in Breast Cancer Brain Colonization Using a Novel Patient‐Derived Model See

Brain metastases from breast cancer (BCBM) are fatal and lack effective treatments. Their cellular and molecular drivers remain poorly understood, partly due to limited preclinical models that fail to capture patient tumor heterogeneity. Cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) are implicated in metastatic&...
