Link-State-Aware Proactive Data Delivery in Integrated Satellite–Terrestrial Networks for Multi-Modal Remote Sensing by Ranshu Peng, Chunjiang Bian, Shi Chen, Min Wu

“…Comprehensive experiments against state-of-the-art baselines (MAPPO, MAAC) demonstrate that multi-modal-MAPPO reduces the average content delivery latency by 53.55% and 29.55%, respectively, while improving push hit rates by 0.1718 and 0.4248. These results establish the framework as a scalable and adaptive solution for real-time intelligent data services in next-generation ISTNs, addressing critical challenges in resource-constrained, dynamic satellite–terrestrial environments.…”

Site‐Specific Impacts of Urbanisation on Annual Survival of a Forest Bird by Boglárka Bukor, Brett K. Sandercock, Karl L. Evans, Ivett Pipoly, Krisztina Sándor, András Liker, Gábor Seress

“…Survival probabilities decreased with bird age at both urban sites in most years, but such patterns were not detected at forest sites. Our results demonstrate that the impacts of aging on avian survival rates can diverge between urban and forest habitats, and that the demographic factors regulating urban populations can vary between locations. …”

Intravesical BCG: A Double-Edged Sword? The Untold Story of Infection Risks by Orçun Barkay, Ercüment Keskin

“…<i>Background and Objectives:</i> Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy remains a cornerstone in the treatment of non-muscle-invasive bladder carcinoma due to its efficacy in reducing recurrence and progression rates. However, its use is associated with various complications—including urinary tract infections (UTIs)—which necessitates further exploration. …”
