Surgery and Radiosurgery for Acromegaly: A Review of Indications, Operative Techniques, Outcomes, and Complications by Yvette Marquez, Alexander Tuchman, Gabriel Zada

“…Among multimodality treatments for acromegaly, the goals of surgical intervention are to balance maximal tumor resection while preserving normal pituitary function and maintaining patient safety. The resection of growth hormone-(GH-) secreting pituitary adenomas in the hands of experienced surgeons results in hormonal remission in 50–70% of patients. …”

Longitudinal development of gamma-ray extensive air shower in the knee and ankle energy ranges by Z. A. Nasser, I. F. Hussein, A. A. Al-Rubaiee

“…This study simulates gamma-ray-induced EAS in the knee 1015 eV and ankle 1018 - 1020 eV energy ranges using the AIR-shower Extended Simulations (AIRES) system (Version 19.04.10) with QGSJET II 04 and EPOS LHC hadronic models at zenith angles of 0° and 25°. The shower patterns are parameterized using a Gaussian amplitude function, which reveals that the shower maximum Xmax develops logarithmically with primary energy. …”

Coupling Effect of Creep Deformation and Prestress Loss of Anchored Jointed Rock by Bairu Zhu, Yang Song, Heping Wang, Yongqi Li

“…The coupling effect between rock mass creep and bolt prestress loss is established by setting the deterioration function of bolt prestress loss. The uniaxial creep test is performed on specimens with different joint angles, and the results show that the prestress loss time in anchor rods decreases linearly with increasing stress level. …”

Analysis of Kinematics and Leveling Performance of a Novel Cable-Driven Parallel Automatic Leveling Robot for Spacecraft Hoisting by Zhuohong Dai, Nan Liu, Tengfei Huang, Xiangfu Meng, Weikang Lv, Ran Chen

“…Aiming at the problems of excessive dependence on manual operations, unquantifiable parameters, low hoisting efficiency, and low level of automation and informatization in the lifting process of spacecraft, a novel cable-driven parallel automatic leveling robot with a two-stage adjustment function is proposed. It contains a cable-driven parallel mechanism and a counterweight compensation mechanism and has the advantages of high load-bearing capacity and better posture adjustment. …”

Object prediction and detection of ground-based weapon with an improved YOLO11 approach by Hanyul Ryu, Mingyu Park, Dae-Yeol Kim

“…While previous studies have primarily focused on improving the detection and classification performance of military objects using UAVs, the current study proposes a novel system that not only detects military objects in simulated UAV operational environments but also analyzes the elevation and azimuth angles of detected gun barrels. For object detection, the YOLO11 model was employed in conjunction with the BCEF loss function to enhance detection performance. …”

Assessment of temporospatial and kinematic gait parameters using human pose estimation in patients with Parkinson's disease: A comparison between near-frontal and lateral views. by Jeongsik Kim, Ryul Kim, Kyeongho Byun, Nyeonju Kang, Kiwon Park

“…However, it remains unclear whether video-based HPE is a feasible method for measuring temporospatial and kinematic gait parameters in patients with PD and how this function varies with camera position. In this study, treadmill and overground walking in 24 patients with early PD was measured using a motion capture system and two smartphone cameras placed on the near-frontal and lateral sides of the subjects. …”

Constitutional imaginaries, rationality, and creation by Paul Blokker

“…To situate Jiří Přibáň’s work in this larger scheme of reflection on the imaginary, this article identifies a number of core angles. Unlike Přibáň’s systems theoretical interpretation of imaginaries, Castoriadis’s philosophy of creative imagination puts emphasis on uniqueness, on historical creation ex nihilo, or the creation of worlds without a precedent in the existing world and without presuming any clear function. …”
