Aims Methadone and buprenorphine diversion by patients in opioid substitution treatment (OST) is a poorly understood phenomenon. We study the norms and attitudes on diversion among OST patients, including the role these norms and attitudes play as diversion risk factors. We also study whether perceived quality of care, social bonds to treatment staff, and deterrence can be associated with diversio

Background: Viral infections, including COVID-19, are associated with an increased risk for type 1 diabetes (T1D), but potential underlying mechanisms remain unexplored. We evaluated whether COVID-19 or influenza A infection is characterized by differential DNA methylation at immune and T1D susceptibility genes in young children at risk for T1D. Methods: Epigenome-wide association analysis using t

Gross primary production (GPP) of the vegetation is the largest carbon exchange process of the global carbon cycle. Currently, within satellite-based remote sensing, GPP is generally modelled using linear light use efficiency models where GPP is related to photosynthetically active radiation absorbed by the green vegetation (APAR). These models work well on moderate to low spatiotemporal averaging

The increased demand, driven by a growing population and changing dietary habits, has created immense pressure on agroecosystems throughout the globe. In semi-arid areas, this increased pressure has led to excessive use of agrochemicals in agriculture, which poses a threat of potentially toxic metal (PTM) contamination in agricultural soils. PTMs in agricultural soils result in significant environ

More than 21 million tons of cheese whey are produced annually worldwide, posing an environmental risk if not properly managed. Due to widespread lactose intolerance, cheese whey, which contains lactose, can pose health problems for many individuals. Thus, the management of the cheese whey is necessary to avoid environmental and health problems. This study presents a sustainable approach for whey

Background: A wrist-worn wearable device for acquiring limb and chest ECG leads (wECG) may constitute a promising approach to detection of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, it remains to be demonstrated whether the information conveyed by the wECG is sufficient for AMI detection. Objective: To explore explainable machine learning models for detecting AMI using the wECG. Methods: Two type

In recent years, the environmental impact of warfare has made front-page news. Discussions about “ecocide”—a term first proposed in 1970 by Yale biologist Arthur W. Galston to describe the large-scale destruction of ecosystems during the Vietnam War—have come into the spotlight. The preparation and conduct of war, along with the social, economic, and scientific reorganisation that accompany it, of

The Velika Vrbica loess-palaeosol sequence, situated on the south-western bank of the Danube River in northeastern Serbia, represents one of the key Quaternary records in the lower Danube basin, covering the MIS 5-MIS 1 period. Previous investigations of the upper 500 cm established a high-resolution chronology and revealed unexpected patterns of dust accumulation during interstadial phases. In th

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) include many types of organic compounds, such as alkanes, olefins, aldehydes, etc. They have attracted widespread attention in various fields such as food and flavor analysis, environmental and atmospheric research, safety, or healthcare. Developing efficient, practical, and high-value industrial VOC utilization technologies is crucial for sustainable social and h

Pancreatic polypeptide (PP) is a gut-derived hormone of the neuropeptide Y family that regulates appetite, gastrointestinal motility, and energy homeostasis through activation of the neuropeptide Y4 receptor (Y4R). With the rising prevalence of obesity, understanding the molecular pharmacology and structure-function relationships of PP-Y4R interactions is essential for the development of novel ant

Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) is a catalytic process applied for the reduction of oxygen levels in hydrocarbons from bio-derived feedstock as part of the processing into renewable fuel. The MoS2-based hydrotreating catalysts, currently being applied for the HDO reaction, are exposed to a complex environment consisting of O-rich hydrocarbons and water, which adversely impacts the state and stability of
