Three‐dimensional three‐interval thixotropy test (3D‐3ITT) protocol for cosmetic lotions: A proof‐of‐concept study linking thixotropy to sensory and emotional responses

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
From rheology to emotion: 3D‐3ITT converts usage‐like shear histories into recovery maps and thixotropy index, TI3D. In a blinded half‐face study (N = 30), the higher‐ TI3D serum (S1s) improved absorption/clean feel and increased Relax and Comfort while lowering Anxiety relative to S2s.

Aedes albopictus and Dengue Transmission Risk in France Over the 21st Century

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
We assessed the impacts of climate change on the range expansion of Ae. albopictus and the risk of dengue transmission in France by 2085. Most of the French territory will be suitable to host this vector, while more than half of the territory will be suitable for dengue transmission.

Friction and vibration generated during sliding over bare skin correlate with perceived smoothness and moistness

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 700-713, August 2026.
A tactile sensor with a probe replicating a fingerprint quantified skin texture by measuring vibration and friction. Regression analysis linked smoothness and moistness perceptions with high‐frequency vibration amplitude and friction. These findings support the objective assessment of skin texture, enhancing product evaluation consistency and bridging ...

Does the Application Flow Rate of Nutrient Solutions Prepared in Brackish Water Affect Coriander Production?

Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 75, Issue 3, Page 1002-1014, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Flow rates for applying nutrient solutions in hydroponic systems are empirically known, yet uncertainties remain regarding whether brackish water affects the optimal flow rate and, consequently, biomass production and allocation. This study evaluated whether variations in application flow rate affect coriander biomass when brackish water is ...

On subset least squares estimation and prediction in vector autoregressive models with exogenous variables

Canadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract We establish the consistency and the asymptotic distribution of the least squares estimators of the coefficients of a subset vector autoregressive process with exogenous variables (VARX). Using a martingale central limit theorem, we derive the asymptotic normal distribution of the estimators. Diagnostic checking is discussed using kernel‐based

A goodness‐of‐fit test for regression models with discrete outcomes

Canadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Regression models are often used to analyze discrete outcomes, but classical goodness‐of‐fit tests such as those based on the deviance or Pearson's statistic can be misleading or have little power in this context. To address this issue, we propose a new test, inspired by the work of Czado et al.

Accounting for Expected Cost Savings and Synergy Gains: The Role of Lenders’ Risk Preferences Comptabilisation des économies de coûts et des gains de synergie attendus : le rôle des préférences des prêteurs en matière de risque

Contemporary Accounting Research, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 893-922, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines whether lenders' risk preferences explain the use of cost‐synergy adjustments in loan contracts. These adjustments represent an aggressive accounting choice that permits borrowers to add expected cost savings and synergy gains from mergers, acquisitions, and restructurings to contractual earnings. Using novel data from loan
