Mental Health Factors in Cardiothoracic Surgery Risk Prediction Models: A Systematic Review
BACKGROUND: Mental health disorders are associated with substantial morbidity and death in cardiovascular disease, yet their role in perioperative risk stratification remains unclear in patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery. We evaluated how mental health disorders are curre...

Abstract Bi2Te3-based materials have attracted considerable attention due to their excellent thermoelectric performance at room temperature. However, the pulverization process during fabrication tends to introduce the donor-like effect, which significantly increases the carrier c...

Vegetation greening and abrupt permafrost thaw are reshaping sediment dynamics across the Tibetan Plateau, yet their relative effects on sediment delivery remain poorly quantified. Here we show that retrogressive thaw slumps are disproportionately important sediment sources, with...

AI can persuade people to take political actions
There is substantial concern about the ability of advanced AI to influence people’s behavior. A rapidly growing body of research has found that AI can produce large persuasive effects on people’s attitudes, but whether AI can persuade people to take consequential real-world actio...

The Protection of Refusal: On Disavowal in the Indian Ocean
Lauren Benton reminds us that to write about piracy as historians (and anthropologists) is to engage in projects of “myth-making and myth-busting.” As she notes, pirates are either imagined as “colorful rogues…inherently anti-authoritarian actors who possessed a penchant for expe...

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of Aquaporin Gene Family in 84K Poplar
Aquaporins (AQPs) mediate the transmembrane transport of water and diverse small molecules, playing essential roles in plant growth and development and stress responses. However, their genome-wide organization and evolution at the subgenome level in hybrid 84K poplar (Populus alb...
