The Impact of Genetic Polymorphisms on Genotoxicity (DNA Damage) Among Children Exposed to Environmental Mutagens: A Systematic Review

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children, as a particularly vulnerable group, are more susceptible to these mutagens due to their developing immune systems, higher physiological vulnerability, and increased exposure through behaviors like outdoor play and hand‐to‐mouth activities. This review aims to investigate the relationship between these environmental exposures, genetic

Mastery Exams: Giving Students a Second Opportunity to Demonstrate Understanding

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Various stressors can affect student exam performance, and a single weak result may not reflect true understanding. To address this, a “Mastery” exam policy was introduced in the 2021–2022 academic year. If a student scores below 80% on a didactic or pre‐clinical laboratory exam worth at least 10% of their final course grade, they can choose ...

The Art of Reception: Field Visits as Microcosms for Development Interventions of Non‐Governmental Organisations in Uganda

Journal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Field visits are common phenomena with non‐governmental organisations in Uganda. During these visits, Ugandan national staff guide visitors on series of meetings and interactions in the field. Following an actor‐oriented approach and drawing on ethnographic data on 14 field visits, this paper understands the field visit as a microcosm for the ...

User‐Relevant Climate Indices and Associated Uncertainties From Transient Convection‐Permitting Climate Model Projections

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
A transient ensemble of convection‐permitting climate simulations is used to compute bias‐corrected user‐relevant climate indices for Germany under recent and future climate conditions, both considering high spatial resolution and uncertainty estimations. For high temperature indices, a clear increase is observed, for example, for hot days and tropical

Incorporating Crowdsourced Data Into Operational Products: A Perspective From a National Meteorological Service

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Future advances in the fields of meteorology and climate science will require scientists to increasingly strive towards the provision of new high‐resolution services. In this context, the development of new products and services along the weather chain may greatly benefit from the adoption of second‐and‐third‐party data (23PD) as a source of high ...

Last‐minute coordination: Adapting to demand to support last‐mile operations

Journal of Operations Management, Volume 71, Issue 2, Page 176-194, March 2025.
Abstract In the highly competitive e‐commerce industry, customer‐facing warehouses are crucial as the “order penetration points” for e‐commerce last‐mile operations. This research examines how warehouses use last‐minute coordination, an unstructured mechanism, to ensure sufficient inventory at the order penetration points. Previous research has focused

Identification of Clinical Factors Associated With the Immunogenicity of Homologous ChAdOx1‐nCoV‐19 Vaccine in Hemodialysis Patients

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemodialysis (HD) patients are at higher risk of severe COVID‐19 and may exhibit suboptimal vaccine responses. This study evaluates the factors influencing vaccine‐induced immunity in HD patients following the second dose of the Vaxzevria. A total of 276 HD patients and 126 controls were included. Antibody responses were assessed using binding

Land Use Transformation and Climate Resilience in Smart Cities: Role of ICT in Modern Urban Planning

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern urban planning is experiencing a transition from traditional planning to the integration of information technology, which defines the concept of a “smart city”. The study analyses the evolution of urban planning practices with an emphasis on the role of engineering and architecture in the process of urbanization, the transition to the ...
