Association of Menopause and Hormonal Contraceptive Use With Chronic Rhinosinusitis: An “All of Us” Analysis

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 174, Issue 2, Page 347-358, February 2026.
Abstract Objective The role of sex hormones in inflammation has attracted increased attention, but the impact of hormone‐modifying states in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) has not been thoroughly studied. We aim to investigate the association of menopause and systemic hormonal contraceptive (SHC) use with both CRS with (CRSwNP) and without (CRSsNP) nasal

Decomposing the Gender Wage Gap in the Urban Labor Market in Kenya

Studia Universitatis Vasile Goldis Arad, Seria Stiinte Economice
Legislation and regulation have been effective in reducing the gender wage gap in developed countries; however, the gap still exists globally, and progress towards narrowing the gap has been unacceptably slow even in regions where it is improving.

On structure constants and fusion rules in the $SL(2,\BC)/SU(2)$ WZNW model

, 1998
A closed formula for the structure constants in the SL(2,C)/SU(2) WZNW model is derived by a method previously used in Liouville theory. With the help of a reflection amplitude that follows from the structure constants one obtains a proposal for the ...

Stability and Stochastic Dynamics of an Extended SUC Epidemic Model With Delays via NSFD Scheme: Implications for Public Health Planning

Complexity, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
As of April 11, 2025, the World Health Organization (WHO) reports that Pakistan has recorded 1,581,936 confirmed COVID‐19 cases, with 30,664 deaths and 1,538,689 recoveries. Motivated by this context, we develop an extended Susceptible–Uninfected–Carrier (SUC) epidemic model incorporating both time delays and stochastic effects to capture more ...

Topological Crystalline Materials of J=3/2 Electrons: Antiperovskites, Dirac Points, and High Winding Topological Superconductivity

Physical Review X, 2018
We present a theory of the high-spin generalization of topological insulators and their doped superconducting states. The higher-spin topological insulators involve a pair of J=3/2 bands with opposite parity and are characterized by their band inversion.

Coset approach to the N=2 supersymmetric matrix GNLS hierarchies

, 1997
We discuss a large class of coset constructions of the N=2 sl(n|n-1) affine superalgebra. We select admissible subalgebras, i.e. subalgebras that induce linear chiral/antichiral constraints on the coset supercurrents.

The National Site Licensing of Electronic Resources: An Institutional Perspective [PDF]

Journal of Library and Information Studies, 2011
While academic libraries in most countries are struggling to negotiate with publishers and vendors individually or collaboratively via consortia, a few countries have experimented with a different model, national site licensing (NSL).
