The politics of polarization: strategic issue emphasis in campaigns

This paper examines electoral competition through a formal model in which parties seek voter support by raising the salience of policy issues. Using this framework, the analysis asks whether parties are more likely to emphasize issues marked by divisions among voters but agreemen...

Platelet Reactivity and Sex Differences: Clinical Implications for Women

Platelets are central to hemostasis and thrombosis. Excessive platelet activation contributes to arterial thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, and complications of peripheral artery disease, whereas excessive platelet inhibition increases bleeding...

Time-Varying Effects of Valacyclovir Prophylaxis in the Zoster Eye Disease Study

Importance The Zoster Eye Disease Study (ZEDS) supports consideration of suppressive valacyclovir for 1 year to reduce risk of recurrent keratitis or iritis in patients with herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO). Although the primary outcome did not show benefit of suppressive valacyc...

Dipyridamole-Coated 3D-Printed β-Tricalcium Phosphate Scaffolds: Spectrophotometric Characterization, Drug Release Kinetics, and In Vitro Evaluation to Guide Critical-Sized Bone Defect Repair Studies

Critical-sized bone defects remain a significant clinical challenge, and dipyridamole (DIPY)-coated 3D-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds have shown promising osteogenic efficacy in preclinical models. However, the literature on the systematic physicochemical characterization...

Integrating Mixed Reality with Key Digital Technologies for Elevating On-Site Construction Efficiency: An Integrative Review and Framework

Abstract The global architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) sector faces a persistent productivity paradox characterized by stagnant growth, frequent schedule overruns, and slow digital adoption. While the emergence of Construction 4.0 introduces automation and data ana...

Prenatal therapies to improve outcomes in gastroschisis: a systematic scoping review protocol

INTRODUCTION: Gastroschisis is a congenital birth defect with a rising incidence. The herniation of intestines into the amniotic cavity leads to prenatal bowel injury, which contributes to significant postnatal morbidity and mortality. Current management focuses on postnatal inte...

Percentiles for crying, regurgitation, stool consistency, and CoMiSSTM in presumed healthy infants

Parents frequently consult health care professionals because of infant regurgitation, crying and stool consistency. The Cow’s Milk-related Symptom Score (CoMiSS TM ) is an awareness tool for cow’s milk allergy. We aimed to characterize the distribution of CoMiSS items in presumed...

Bio‐Inspired Biopolymeric Implantable Platform for Localized and Sustained Drug Delivery in Solid Tumor Treatment

ABSTRACT The development of biocompatible and biodegradable drug delivery systems remains a major challenge in cancer therapy, particularly for the localized and sustained release of poorly soluble, unstable, and highly toxic compounds. 7‐Ethyl‐10‐hydroxycamptothecin (SN‐38), the...

Weak and strong memories are equally reactivated during counterfactual learning, but only weak memories are modified

Adaptively updating memories about familiar others is an important social skill. Here, we examined whether strong or weak social memories are more prone to updating when violated. Participants viewed well-known characters’ emotional reactions to food items either repeatedly or on...

From a Viral Application to a Clinical Imperative—Dying Alone

This Viewpoint examines the interaction between technology and solitary death.

Cognitive-behavioral suicide prevention for psychosis in community mental health: A pilot randomized clinical trial

Adults with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSDs) have substantially elevated suicide risk, yet few suicide prevention interventions have been developed or tested for this population. The effectiveness of Cognitive-Behavioral Suicide Prevention for psychosis (CBSPp) in US commu...

A Cigarette Tax and Childcare Mitigate Nicotine Exposure in Young Children

OBJECTIVES The detrimental effects of tobacco smoke on children’s health are well known. Although evidence suggests that cigarette excise taxes can reduce adult smoking, it remains unclear whether they reduce the nicotine levels of infants and toddlers—a developmentally vulnerabl...

Carrying Firearms and Suicide Risk Among Adolescents

Importance Firearms are the most lethal method of suicide across all ages, with case fatality rates exceeding 90%, warranting urgent public health concern. Understanding how carrying of firearms by adolescents and suicide risk vary by race and ethnicity and by stringency of state...

Caregiver Perspectives on Implementation of Discharge Plans for Children With Medical Complexity

OBJECTIVE The quality of discharge processes impacts adverse outcomes post hospitalization for children with medical complexity (CMC). Perspectives of caregivers at risk for communication challenges (eg, non-English speakers, those with limited health literacy, immigrants) on und...

Hybrid spatial organization and evidence for magnitude-independent neural coding of linguistic information during sentence production

Humans are the only species with the ability to systematically combine words to convey an unbounded number of complex meanings. This process is guided by combinatorial processes whose underlying neural mechanisms remain obscured by inherent limitations of noninvasive brain measur...

Mobile Cancer Screening Services in the Contemporary Screening Era: A Systematic Scoping Review of Recent Implementation and Future Directions

Mobile cancer screening services in the US aim to expand access to underserved and frequently underscreened populations. As screening approaches evolve in complexity (e.g., risk stratification, supplemental modalities), there is a need for updated reviews to understand how mobile...

Spatially resolved tissue architecture and computational pathology in pancreatic cancer

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a complex disease characterized by high levels of cellular heterogeneity and pronounced microenvironmental remodelling. Dynamic changes during its initiation and progression contribute to resistance to conventional therapies. Building up...

Why Do Residents Pursue Fellowship Training in Geriatric Medicine?

ABSTRACT Background Despite the important role of Geriatricians in our society, there is a shortage of Geriatric Medicine specialists. This study surveyed fellows enrolled in ACGME approved Geriatric Medicine fellowships in the United States for insight into why they joined a Ger...

Needing others to know you’re good: Narcissists’ pride in success is contingent on peer reactions.

= 3,463), participants recalled a real-life success or failure and reported their feelings of pride in response (Studies 1, 2, and 4) or experienced success in a controlled, laboratory experiment and reported pride in the success after receiving either positive or negative social...

Microfragmented Adipose Tissue in Pain Management: Bridging Regenerative Biology and Clinical Therapeutics

Regenerative medicine has emerged as a transformative paradigm in contemporary healthcare, shifting the therapeutic focus from symptomatic management toward the restoration of tissue structure and function through biologically active interventions. Within this framework, adipose-...
