Risk Assessment in Clinical Histocompatibility Testing: Challenges, Strategies, and Future Directions

Received: 15 July 2025;  Published: 25 November 2025;  doi: 10.21926/obm.transplant.2504260

Abstract

Though the role of clinical histocompatibility testing is fundamental to successful transplant, systematic risk assessment and mitigation strategies remain underutilised in this domain. This review addresses risk identification, analysis, and control measures across the pre-analytical, analytical, and post-analytical phases of clinical histocompatibility testing, in line with international standards such as ISO 15189:2022. A structured, risk-based quality management system (QMS) is imperative for ensuring accurate [...]

Contribution of Solar Energy to Buildings’ Energy Demands: A Review

Received: 27 June 2025;  Published: 12 January 2026;  doi: 10.21926/aeer.2601002

Abstract

Buildings account for a significant portion of global energy consumption, estimated at 30-40%, and also contribute to greenhouse gas emissions. Energy consumption in a building is mainly thermal (natural gas) and electrical. This energy is usually used for heating water, cooking, illumination, ventilation and air conditioning, powering appliances, floor heating, and other activities. These activities were examined, and their substitution by solar-based energy sources was reviewed. To achieve this objective, an exte [...]

Administration of the Effects of Wireless Electromagnetic Fields on Living Tissues in Sustainable Urban Ecosystems

Received: 07 October 2025;  Published: 17 December 2025;  doi: 10.21926/rpse.2504017

Abstract

A relevant objective of managing an electromagnetic (EM) device is to improve its expected results and reduce its undesirable side effects. In this context, this paper aims to evaluate the interest of the two One Health and Responsible Attitude methods in the daily practice of wireless transmission (or transfer) in EM energy devices. These approaches are respectively linked to device eco-design and optimization, as well as to the protection of biodiversity and ecosystems against device side effects related to EM fi [...]

A Frequency Analysis of the Professional Quality of Life of NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) Therapists after NARM Training

Received: 25 July 2025;  Published: 04 January 2026;  doi: 10.21926/obm.icm.2601001

Abstract

Research shows that trauma therapists often experience secondary trauma, which can lead to secondary traumatic stress, compassion fatigue, and burnout. Trauma-informed care training has shown promise in enhancing practitioners' professional quality of life, particularly for those regularly exposed to trauma. To our knowledge, no prior studies have examined the training outcomes of NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) therapists on professional quality-of-life indicators. This cross-sectional observational study a [...]

iRest™ Meditation Webinar Series Addresses Depression Symptoms in Older Adults

Received: 09 August 2025;  Published: 07 January 2026;  doi: 10.21926/obm.icm.2601004

Abstract

Older adults in the U.S. have higher rates of depression, stress, and chronic diseases. There is an urgent need for effective interventions to reduce depressive symptoms and enhance overall health and well-being. Meditation presents an appealing therapeutic option due to its cost-effectiveness, minimal risks, ease of use, and active patient involvement, with growing evidence indicating its effectiveness in reducing depressive symptoms. Online platforms may provide more accessible options for meditation intervention [...]

Technology to Help People with Blindness and Intellectual Disability Manage Indoor Travel: Anticipating and Bypassing Obstacles

Received: 18 August 2025;  Published: 27 November 2025;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2504313

Abstract

Recent work with people with blindness and intellectual disability assessed a technology-aided program intended to help eight participants travel indoor routes to reach relevant destinations. The technology included a smartphone, two barcode readers worn by the participants at their ankles, barcodes displayed at specific points of the travel routes, and a mini speaker. The technology ensured that participants received verbal instructions on how to proceed (e.g., take a left turn, cross from one side to the other of [...]

The Relationship between Hereditary Predisposition and Epigenetic Mechanisms of Schizophrenia Development

Received: 17 August 2025;  Published: 08 December 2025;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2504314

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a multifactorial mental disorder associated with multiple SNPs in the human genome, located mainly outside the annotated protein-coding genes. These regions contain a large number of retroelements, which drive epigenetic regulation. Therefore, it is suggested that schizophrenia-associated SNPs exert their influence on the pathological functioning and activation of retroelements, which contribute to epigenetic imbalance in the brain with the development of pathological processes. A reflection of the [...]

The Role of Nitrogen-Containing Compounds in Chemical Neuroscience: Implications for Drug Development

Received: 03 May 2025;  Published: 04 January 2026;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2601318

Abstract

The study explores the crucial biological function of nitrogen in cyclic and acyclic structures with resonance potential, including tetrazoles, pyrroles, piperidines, and carbamates, within the realm of chemical neuroscience. It highlights the importance of these compounds for their biological properties and their ability to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to reach the central nervous system (CNS). The study emphasizes the necessity for neurochemical drugs, like morphine, to effectively cross the BBB, as modifi [...]
