Article Abstract
Lu is one of the medical radioisotopes with wide application prospects. To explore the Lu production besides using reactors, a concept of utilizing high-enriched cylindrical Lu based on a high-intensity DT neutron generator via the direct neutron capture reaction has been proposed. The production of Lu in aLuO solid shell target has been simulated considering layers of neutron multiplier, moderator, and reflector around itself. Materials used as multipliers, moderators, and reflectors have been investigated and analyzed for neutronics optimization. The combinations and thicknesses of different layers have been calculated using the response surface methodology (RSM), and the three layers were found almost independently for the Lu production. Both the activity and the specific activity of produced Lu were improved significantly using the RSM. According to the calculations, about 13.5 Ci Lu can be produced after 40 days of irradiation with a stable neutron yield of 5 × 10 n/s.

Graduate School of Physical Education, Myongji University, Yongin, Republic of Korea.
Background: High levels of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are associated with high mortality and cardiovascular risk. Physical activity is an affordable intervention that is available to most people, but the type and amount of exercise to induce metabolic benefits in T1D are not known with certainty.
Objective: To determine the comparative effectiveness of diverse exercise modes and dosages to influence HbA1c in patients with T1D.

BMX Freestyle, a newly recognized Olympic discipline, demands athletes perform intricate, high-intensity maneuvers during 60-s competitive runs. Despite the sport's rapid evolution, there is a notable scarcity of scientific investigation into the distinct physiological and physical attributes of its athletes. This preliminary review synthesizes the extant literature to delineate the key physiological and physical characteristics of BMX Freestyle athletes and to identify pressing directions for future research.

Background: Repeated-sprint training in hypoxia (RSH) has emerged as a novel strategy to optimize repeated-sprint ability (RSA), aerobic capacity, and anaerobic performance in athletes. Although numerous studies have explored its efficacy compared with repeated-sprint training in normoxia (RSN), inconsistencies remain regarding overall benefits and modulating factors.
Objectives: This study aimed to quantify the overall effect of RSH vs.

Background: Mental health issues among middle school students are closely associated with life events and childhood trauma experiences. However, the interactive pathways among these three factors remain unclear. Based on network analysis, this study constructs a network model to identify core nodes (high-intensity symptoms) and bridge nodes (cross-group associated symptoms), aiming to reveal their interaction mechanisms and provide a foundation for targeted interventions in adolescent mental health.

Introduction: Submarine environments pose unique challenges to maintaining physical activity and exercise routines due to confined spaces, demanding schedules, and limited resources. This study investigated submariners' physical activity patterns, sleep quality, and perceived exercise barriers in both land- and sea-based settings, with the goal of informing targeted health interventions.
