Child and Adolescent Mental Health, EarlyView.Background To examine whether positive self‐evaluation and contextual variables—such as those created by family, peers and schools—serve as promotive factors or protective factors in the context of adversity. Methods Data were drawn from two waves of the youth survey of a population‐representative cohort in Hong Kong.

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives To determine the extent that parenting styles and oral health behaviours mediate the relationship between socioeconomic circumstances (SEC) and childhood dental caries experience: pre−/post‐national roll‐out in 2011 of Childsmile, the child oral health improvement programme for Scotland.

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives The “valley of death” between research and practice remains a major challenge. The five‐stage Translational Research framework (TR1‐TR5) provides a pathway, moving evidence into real‐world impact. Traditionally, Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs) dominate TR stages, yet they are often impractical in public health.

Encoding Occupancy in Memory Location for Efficient and Compact High‐Resolution Voxel Structures
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.We encode information about geometric structure into the pointers of a sparse voxel directed acyclic graph (SVDAG). Each pointer carries information about the structure of the node it points to. Our encoding improves ray tracing performance and reduces model size in memory.

NAADF: Globally Illuminated Voxel Worlds Accelerated with Nested Axis‐Aligned Distance Fields
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Achieving realistic rendering of 3D scenes in real time using path tracing is challenging due to the high sample count required, with ray tracing as the bottleneck. Focusing on voxels as a geometry representation offers significant opportunities for optimizations, especially for tracing the rays, but also for computing the samples.
