Abstract Cognitive aging is often associated with increased Stroop interference, but it remains unclear whether this reflects a broad decline in inhibitory control or selective impairments in specific conflict-resolution mechanisms. The present study examined age-related differen...

Patterns and Predictors of Repeated Medication Nonadherence in Glaucoma: A Population-Based Study
Background/Objectives: We aimed to evaluate nonadherence to topical glaucoma therapy and identify risk factors for repeated prescription fulfillment failure in a large national population-based cohort. Methods: The electronic medical records from a large health maintenance organi...

The representation of order and randomness in the auditory cortex
Perception fundamentally relies on the brain’s ability to extract structure from its sensory environment. The auditory cortex possesses significant sensitivity to statistical regularities in tone sequences. To examine this phenomenon at the single-neuron level, we used multitone...

Transmission‐Mode Silicon‐Rich Nitride Mie‐Void Metasurfaces in the Visible
ABSTRACT Mie‐void metasurfaces have so far been developed mainly in reflection, where subwavelength voids embedded in high‐index media support localized resonances and spectrally selective optical responses. Here we introduce Mie‐void metasurfaces operating in transmission, imple...

Airflows redefine the cost of aerial transport in the wild
Fuel economy matters to both animals and machines, as the cost of transport can determine where, when, and how far locomotion is possible. However, established estimates of these values for animal flight come from laboratories and treat the atmosphere as constant, even though fre...

The Testimonium Flavianum , 1893–2025
This article responds to T.C. Schmidt, Josephus and Jesus: New Evidence for the One Called Christ (2025), which argues that Josephus’ account of Jesus and the first Christians ( Antiquities 18.63–64; the Testimonium Flavianum ) is authentic and that Josephus got his information a...

EXTREME LEAST SINGULAR VALUES OF GAUSSIAN ROW SUBMATRICES AND A PHASE RETRIEVAL STABILITY PROBLEM
Abstract Let F $\mathbb {F}$ double struck upper F be either R $\mathbb {R}$ double struck upper R or C $\mathbb {C}$ double struck upper C , and put d F = dim R F $d_{\mathbb {F}}=\dim _{\mathbb {R}}\mathbb {F}$ d Subscript double struck upper F Baseline equals dimension Subsc...

Internal memory costs following cognitive offloading in younger and older adults
Older adults rely on cognitive offloading to compensate for memory decline. However, research in younger adults has shown that offloading weakens internal memory because individuals disengage from encoding externally saved information. We examined whether similar costs occur in o...

Abstract Background Differential expression analysis is a central tool for studying the biological processes altered in human diseases via transcriptomic signatures. However, transcriptomic datasets are systematically confounded by latent variables from two distinct sources: unme...

ABSTRACT Quantum interference governs the transport behavior of low‐dimensional conductors, where the phase coherence of scattered electrons gives rise to phenomena such as weak localization (WL) and weak anti‐localization (WAL). Understanding how molecular environments influence...

Selective Biexciton Generation under Energy-Time Entangled Quantum Light in Quantum Dots
Abstract Quantum light provides opportunities for controlling multiphoton absorption beyond the classical limits. Here, we investigate biexciton generation in nanocrystal quantum dots driven by energy-time-entangled photon pairs generated via spontaneous parametric downconversion...

The ecosystem services gap in tourism research: From harm minimization to benefit recognition
Tourism research has long framed the natural environment as a fragile asset requiring protection from tourism-induced harm — generating important insights into impact mitigation, but producing a blind spot: the measurable benefits that ecosystems provide to tourism remain largely...

An intermediate-complexity moist general circulation model is used to investigate the forcing of localized storm tracks by land–sea contrast, horizontal gradients in ocean heat uptake, planetary albedo, and topography. The additivity of the response to these building blocks is in...

Recurrent hypermotif regulatory circuits in developmental programs
During development, cells self-organize into complex spatial and temporal patterns driven by regulatory circuits of transcription factors and morphogen signaling. However, the principles that govern these regulatory interactions remain poorly understood. Here, we introduce a fram...
