Introduction: Recently, e-scooters have proliferated worldwide. Municipalities have been struggling with regulating e-scooters due to public concerns that the injuries from the new crashes outweigh the health and environmental benefits of micromobility use. Indeed, several studies have reported crash risk for e-scooters 4 to 10 times higher than that for bicycles.

Introduction: The recent rise in e-scooter usage has reshaped urban mobility but has also led to a significant increase in e-scooter-related injuries, raising critical safety concerns. While existing research has primarily focused on post-crash medical outcomes and general risk comparisons, substantial gaps remain in identifying specific risk factors associated with e-scooter crashes and utilizing interpretable analytical approaches.
Method: This study addresses these gaps by analyzing 2,400 e-scooter crash records from the UK STATS19 database using advanced machine learning models to predict injury severity.

This study explores the economic implications of transport remit management in Poland's international trade landscape, with a particular focus on the operations of a medium-sized Polish forwarding company (Company X). Employing a mixed-methods approach, the research combines quantitative analysis of government datasets, firm-level transaction data, and qualitative insights from a targeted industry survey. The case study of Company X reveals notable reluctance among Polish enterprises to assume transport remit responsibilities, particularly in import operations, due to preferences for foreign partners, limited experience with international logistics, and concerns about administrative complexity.

Livestock-associated methicillin-resistant (LA-MRSA) displays distinct geographical distribution patterns, with ST398 predominating in Europe and ST9 being the dominant lineage in Asia, particularly China. However, the mechanisms underlying these differences remain poorly understood. In this study, we evaluated the cell adhesion capacity, anti-phagocytic properties, and porcine nasal colonization potential of ST9 and ST398 strains isolated from China and Germany.

Background: Problematic Smartphone Use (PSU) is a growing concern, particularly among university students, due to its potential negative impacts on mental health, academic performance, and daily functioning. Characterized by compulsive smartphone use, PSU is linked to anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbances. Understanding PSU in university settings is essential for creating effective interventions.
