Life satisfaction around the world: Measurement invariance of the Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) across 65 nations, 40 languages, gender identities, and age groups.

The Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) is a widely used self-report measure of subjective well-being, but studies of its measurement invariance across a large number of nations remain limited. Here, we utilised the Body Image in Nature (BINS) dataset-with data collected between 2020 and 2022 -to assess measurement invariance of the SWLS across 65 nations, 40 languages, gender identities, and age groups (N = 56,968). All participants completed the SWLS under largely uniform conditions.

A multicenter study on enteral autonomy outcome of pediatric intestinal failure patients from a middle-income country.

Background & Aims: To identify predictors of enteral autonomy and survival in pediatric intestinal failure patients followed up at three pediatric intestinal rehabilitation centers from a middle-income country.

Methods: This retrospective multicenter cohort study evaluated patients with intestinal failure from three high-volume intestinal rehabilitation centers on long-term parenteral nutrition between 2014 and 2023. The primary outcome was status at the end of the follow-up: parenteral nutrition dependence, enteral autonomy, transplantation, or death.

Multi-gate neuron-like transistors based on ensembles of aligned nanowires on flexible substrates.

The intriguing way the receptors in biological skin encode the tactile data has inspired the development of electronic skins (e-skin) with brain-inspired or neuromorphic computing. Starting with local (near sensor) data processing, there is an inherent mechanism in play that helps to scale down the data. This is particularly attractive when one considers the huge data produced by large number of sensors expected in a large area e-skin such as the whole-body skin of a robot.

Coefficients in Taylor's law increase with the time scale of water clarity measurements in a global suite of lakes.

Identifying the scaling rules describing ecological patterns across time and space is a central challenge in ecology. Taylor's law of fluctuation scaling, which states that the variance of a population's size or density is proportional to a positive power of the mean size or density, has been widely observed in population dynamics and characterizes variability in multiple scientific domains. However, it is unclear if this phenomenon accurately describes ecological patterns across many orders of magnitude in time, and therefore links otherwise disparate observations.

Prevalence of depression and anxiety in women with chronic pelvic Pain: A systematic review and Meta-Analysis.

Purpose: This study aimed to present the prevalence of depression and anxiety in women with Chronic Pelvic Pain (CPP) and their associated factors.

Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted using the PubMed, Embase, and SciELO platforms, focusing on studies published between 2010 and 2024.

Results: Eight studies were evaluated and demonstrated a significant prevalence of anxiety and depression in women with CPP, ranging from 22.
