This study examines factors influencing preprimary teacher turnover in peri-urban Ghana, finding that 22% of teachers left their positions within a school year. Psychological well-being, including depression, anxiety, and job satisfaction, was the strongest predictor of turnover and mediated the impact of personal stressors. The findings emphasize the importance of holistic support addressing both personal and professional needs to improve teacher retention and education quality.

This study analyzes decarbonization efforts of 1,095 European firms, identifying six key strategic pathwaysranging from risk diagnosis to supply chain redesignand uses a systems dynamics approach to reveal how these interconnected strategies influence climate risk performance. The findings offer valuable tools for managers and policymakers to coordinate supply chain actions more effectively, fostering continuous innovation and improved sustainability outcomes.

This review highlights how the nature crisis, particularly climate change, is reshaping the distribution and intensity of diseases, posing significant challenges for global and local health policies. It underscores the urgent need for adaptive, multidisciplinary health strategies that address vulnerable populations and prioritize mitigation efforts to build a sustainable relationship between humans and nature.

We introduce a new approach to defect engineering in Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs), aiming to reduce Zr site valency while preserving high node connectivity. Using a rapid heat treatment (RHT) in humid air, oxygen vacancies (O-vacancies) were created in Dresden University of Technology (DUT)-67 through cluster dehydration. Unlike conventional defect engineering, aimed at creating missing-linker defects, this method breaks intra-cluster Zr-μ3 O–Zr bonds, generating coordinatively unsaturated Zr (Zrcus ) sites.

Metalloproteins have evolved through the selective, strong, and precise interactions between metal ions and polypeptides. The coordination of metal ions to amino acid side chains is therefore a fundamental prerequisite for designing metalloproteins. Here, we present Metal-Installer, a user-friendly in silico tool that proposes probable mutation sites for metal ligation.

INTRODUCTION: There is very limited knowledge on the relationship between pregnancy hypertension and the occurrence of pre-clinical Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS: Community-dwelling midlife women without dementia were enrolled from well-woman clinics of the National University Hospital, Singapore. Sociodemographic parameters and history of pregnancy hypertension were obtained. Cognition was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Basic tool.

This paper examines whether pursuing Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) in Bangladesh leads to improved labour market outcomes compared to general education. Drawing on nationally representative data from the 2016 Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES), it employs logit models, ordinary least squares (OLS), and propensity score matching (PSM) to analyse employment status and hourly earnings across education streams, disaggregated by gender and educational level (secondary, higher secondary, and tertiary).

Background: Climate change is a growing threat to maternal and newborn health (MNH). Alongside urgent emissions reductions, effective efforts to address climate-driven health disparities – both in MNH and more broadly – will require a stronger collective understanding of climate impacts on health. This will necessitate further investment not only in climate and health research, but also in climate and health education and literacy. Critically, the extent to which climate education can or is being used to advance MNH remains unknown.

This study represents the first clinical trial of dichloroacetate, a non-hormonal treatment, for endometriosis-associated pain in 30 women, demonstrating that recruitment and treatment are feasible despite common but manageable side effects. The research directly relates to International Women's Day by addressing endometriosis, a chronic condition affecting an estimated 190 million women worldwide that causes debilitating pelvic pain and infertility, highlighting the urgent need for better treatment options for women's health.
