A Selfless Integrator or a Selfish Quasi‐Professional? Relational Tactics for Organizational Professionals’ Durable Influence

Journal of Management Studies, Volume 63, Issue 7, Page 3855-3891, November 2026.
Abstract Our study works towards a ‘sociology of organizational professionals’ by elucidating how they navigate domains dominated by occupational professionals. It shows that relational tactics impact whether organizational professionals remain limited to a periphery, become subservient to occupational professionals, or achieve durable roles.

QM, A Category Error: The UPC-QM Bridge

Abstract Quantum mechanics contains a single category error: it treats mechanical registration as if it were Observer‑level recognition. A detector click, pointer position, or classical record is a trace (T), not an outcome. The definite outcome arises only when a meaning‑bearing Observer performs the recognition step (Jo) and commits to a specific ...

Insights Into the Oxygen Evolution Reaction on an Mn‐Bearing Hematite Electrocatalyst in an Acidic Electrolyte

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 19, 14 October 2026.
This work investigates Mn incorporation into hematite‐based Fe1.5Mn0.5O3 and its impact on crystal structure and disorder using in situ high‐temperature XRD and quantum chemical calculations. Calcination controlled structural disorder enhances acidic OER activity, while operando Raman spectroscopy provides mechanistic insight into the roles of Fe and ...

An Empirical Study of Top Management Commitment and Its Relationship With Quality Management System Leadership

Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
Top management commitment is positively associated with quality management system leadership in ISO 9001‐certified Malaysian manufacturing organisations. Across 146 respondents, Pearson correlation showed a moderate positive association (r = 0.479, p = 0.001), while PLS‐SEM indicated a weak positive path (β = 0.117).

Synergistic Cytotoxicity of Cafestol and Kahweol With Doxorubicin in Breast Cancer Cells Involves TNF‑α Targeting and NF‑κB Downregulation

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 10, October 2026.
Cafestol and kahweol (C&K) are cytotoxic to breast cancer cells and have a synergistic effect with doxorubicin. C&K interact with TNF‐α and downregulate the TNF‐α/NF‐κB pathway, underscoring their therapeutic potential for breast cancer. NIAID Visual & Medical Arts. Generic Cells.

Evaluation of methods for the analysis of oxygen and carbon dioxide in water, sediment, litter, and soil

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Choosing an appropriate analyzer to measure concentrations of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) during biogeochemical cycling studies can be difficult, considering the range of options available. While several studies examine the abilities of specific analyzers, comparison of multiple analyzers and environmental sample types is lacking.

Modification of the Madeira River morphology following large hydropower projects detected by satellite data

River, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 369-387, August 2026.
Abstract Estimating suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in river channels is essential for understanding hydro‐sedimentological processes, managing water quality, and conserving aquatic ecosystems. This study evaluated different empirical equations to estimate SSC in the lower Madeira River and analyzed its hydro‐sedimentary dynamics based on MODIS ...

Scalable QM-in-QM Embedding Framework in FHI-aims

Multiscale embedding techniques provide an optimal balance of high accuracy and computational efficiency for modeling extended materials. These methods focus on highly precise calculations for a small cluster subsystem, such as a catalytically active surface site, extracted from a larger system like a metal surface, while utilizing more efficient ...
