Leading Learning Health Systems in the Asia Pacific: A Mixed‐Method Evaluation of Health Professionals' Experiences in a Longitudinal Leadership Program

Learning Health Systems, Volume 10, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction The Learning Health System (LHS) concept is gaining traction in high‐income countries, yet its implementation in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) remains limited with few initiatives offering practical strategies tailored to these contexts.

Delivery and Attitude Modulate Shared Neural Processing of Speech Through Distinct Frequency Channels

Psychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Listeners' brains align when they attend to the same speech, but what determines how strongly they align is not well understood. We asked whether that alignment tracks the communicative relation between a listener and a message, manipulating it from the speaker's side and from the listener's, and bounding the account with a manipulation that ...

Beyond canonical homeostasis: Dynamic, plastic, and intermittently unregulated physiology as the norm

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 20, October 2026.
Abstract Homeostasis is often taught as steady‐state regulation keeping internal variables within narrow limits—reflecting a mammalian bias. Yet, canonical homeostasis is far from universal. In many animals, including humans, normal physiological states allow some variables to fluctuate cyclically or stochastically while others remain tightly ...

Graph Neural Network‐Based Prediction of Building Energy Consumption

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 9, Page 4486-4507, September 2026.
A graph neural network that encodes a multi‐zone building as a graph accurately predicts hourly cooling and heating loads across three distinct climates, outperforming Random Forest and XGBoost baselines and serving as a fast surrogate to EnergyPlus simulations for scalable building energy management.

Comparing Visual Self‐Assessment and Virtual Reality Training for Improving Basic Life Support Competency in Nursing Students: An Educational Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Cardiac arrest (CA) is an important medical emergency and a leading cause of death worldwide. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an essential basic life support (BLS) and the initial response to CA. The success of resuscitation depends on the skills and performance of rescuers, as well as effective training to enhance ...

Humanising Web‐Based Learning for Academically Transitioning Students Through Their Voices

European Journal of Education, Volume 61, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Web‐based learning (WBL) has been widely used to support students' learning and has demonstrated its role in boosting students' academic success. Little research has focused on strategies that students can use to humanise this mode of learning, especially academically transitioning students.

Emotional Labour in Shaping Pre‐Service Teachers' Well‐Being: A Case Study of Rural Practicum Journeys

European Journal of Education, Volume 61, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study explores the emotional journeys of three pre‐service teachers during their rural teaching practicum in China, focusing on how emotional labour develops and shapes teacher well‐being. Using reflexive thematic analysis of three narrative cases, the study traces participants' emotional labour trajectories over time.

Ventilation rates and thermal comfort assessment in a naturally ventilated classroom

, 2016
Ventilation systems are meant (i) to guarantee good indoor air quality (IAQ) by providing and distributing fresh air to the occupied/breathing zone and (ii) to dilute and remove pollutants emitted by indoor sources. On the other hand, inadequate ventilation rates can induce discomfort issues and excessive energy consumption.
