Silencing of juvenile hormone‐related genes through RNA interference leads to molt failure and high mortality in the spongy moth

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The feasibility of using RNA interference to control the globally important quarantine pest, the spongy moth. Targeting genes related to JHs play an important role in the growth and development of insects. First, the open reading frames (ORFs) of Ldjhamt and Ldjheh were identified and characterized, and the target genes were cloned and double‐stranded ...

Magnetic Cloud and Its Interplanetary Shock Sheath as a Modulator of the Cosmic Ray Intensity [PDF]

Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2008
Forbush Decreases (FDs) are representative events of abrupt decrease in galactic cosmic ray intensity. They are known to be strongly associated with solar wind events such as interplanetary shock (IP shock) and magnetic cloud (MC).

Examining the Psychometric Properties of the Ultra‐Short Version of the Oral Health Impact Profile in Australia

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) is the most widely used instrument to measure the subjective impact of oral conditions. This study reports the shortening and psychometric evaluation of an ultra‐short version (OHIP‐7A) from the OHIP‐14 in a large national Australian population.

Ionization effect of solar particle GLE events in low and\ middle atmosphere [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2011
Using a new reconstruction of the solar proton energy spectra for Ground Level Enhancement (GLE) events, based on fits to measurements from ground-based and satellite-borne instruments covering a wide energy range, we quantitatively evaluate the possible

Geomagnetic and Cosmic Ray Activity Effect on Heart Rate during the Solar Cycle 24

Atmosphere
The number of investigations relevant to the study of geomagnetic activity, solar events, and cosmic rays, i.e., space weather phenomena, and their impact on human health has increased dramatically over the past few years.

Using Forbush decreases to derive the transit time of ICMEs propagating from 1 AU to Mars

, 2017
The propagation of 15 interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) from Earth's orbit (1 AU) to Mars (~ 1.5 AU) has been studied with their propagation speed estimated from both measurements and simulations. The enhancement of magnetic fields related to

Starving for Data: Eating Disorders Prevalence and Research Gaps in Southern Africa

International Journal of Eating Disorders, Volume 59, Issue 4, Page 682-699, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Studies reporting prevalence estimates of eating disorders in Southern Africa are scarce. To fill this gap, the present Research Forum reviews existing literature on the prevalence of eating disorders, including as assessed by clinical interviews, screeners, and self‐reported behaviors, among individuals in Southern Africa.

Measurements of Cosmic Rays by a Mini‐Neutron Monitor at Neumayer III From 2014 to 2017

Space Weather
A mini‐neutron monitor (MNM) was installed at the German Antarctic Neumayer III station, measuring the variation of galactic cosmic rays and searching for Forbush Decreases (FDs) caused by solar activities. Running continuously from 2014 until the end of

Estimation of Global Increase of Radiation Dose Rates During the Ground Level Enhancement on 11–12 November 2025 Using WASAVIES

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract WArning System for AVIation Exposure to Solar energetic particles (WASAVIES) is a physics‐based nowcasting system designed to support warning operations for aviation exposure to solar energetic particles (SEPs) by providing near‐real‐time global SEP dose‐rate estimates.
