Image of mathematics: A case study of two women's early mathematics experiences
Abstract People often view mathematics as abstract, cold, and irrelevant to real life, and their school experiences likely influence such views. In this case study, we investigated the mathematics experiences of two women who participated in an afterschool girls‐only STEM club 30 years ago when they were in fifth and sixth grades.

In vitro muscle contraction: A technical review on electrical pulse stimulation in C2C12 cells
Abstract Electrical pulse stimulation (EPS) of skeletal muscle cells is increasingly used to model exercise In vitro. The murine C2C12 myotube system has become a common platform for such studies, yet wide variability in EPS protocols hampers reproducibility and cross‐study comparisons.

Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...

ABSTRACT This study investigated the prevalence of electronic smoking device (ESD) use and its associated behavioural and chemical risks among university students in Bahia, Brazil. A cross‐sectional survey was conducted with 355 students from public and private institutions through an online questionnaire between April and May 2023. Among participants,

ABSTRACT Various factors can trigger water stress in plants, particularly in those growing in dry tropical regions. To survive under such conditions, plants produce metabolites with adaptive functions. However, metabolomic data on the leaves of Malpighiaceae species cultivated in both dry and humid tropical areas of Brazil remain scarce.

Quantitative MRI of upper limb muscles in DMD patients showed increasing sensitivity to change over time with larger analysis volumes and longer follow‐up. Muscle fat fraction had the highest sensitivity to change and was associated with declining upper limb function, supporting its value as a robust imaging biomarker in DMD. ABSTRACT Duchenne muscular

Abstract Background and Purpose Alcohol abuse and affective disorders are severe comorbid psychiatric diseases characterized by impaired brain synaptic transmission. The role of presynaptic scaffolding proteins coordinating presynaptic plasticity and neurotransmitter release, such as Bassoon (Bsn), in the pathogenesis of these disorders remains elusive.

Spin‐State Modulation of Atomic Iron Sites Enables Efficient CO2 Electroreduction in Acid Medium
An axial oxygen ligand was added to shift the spin state of the single‐atom Fe site from low to medium spin. This change reduces the interfacial interaction with H3O+ and decreases the *CO desorption energy, thus enhancing CO2RR in acidic media.
