Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of death globally, and many humanitarian crises occur in countries with high NCD burdens. Peer support is a promising approach to improve NCD care in these settings. However, evidence on peer support for people living with NCDs in humanitarian settings is limited.

Collective behavior in biological systems emerges from local interactions among individuals, enabling groups to adapt to dynamic environments. Traditional modeling approaches, such as bottom-up and top-down models, have limitations in accurately representing these complex interactions. We propose a novel potential field mechanism that integrates local interactions and environmental influences to explain collective behavior.

This review explores the genetic basis of Tourette syndrome (TS), a complex neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by motor and vocal tics. Family, twin, and molecular genetic studies provide strong evidence for a genetic component in TS, with heritability estimates ranging from 50% to 80%. The genetic architecture of TS is complex, involving both common variants with small effects and rare variants with larger effects.

Introduction: The Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 Scale (GAD-7) is widely used to measure anxiety symptom severity. One-factor, two-factor, and bifactor latent structures are supported by previous research. Yet, measurement invariance of the GAD-7 across sex and language (i.

This study developed the multifunctional cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) as emulsifier for preparation of antibacterial, ultrastable and non-toxic emulsion. To achieve these properties, CNFs were oxidated using sodium periodate to introduce aldehyde groups, which served as Schiff-base reaction sites for amino groups of polyhexamethylene guanidine (PHMG), yielding PHMG-grafted CNFs (PCNFs). The modified CNFs retained good emulsification ability while acquiring antibacterial properties.
