Family meals for future health: A life‐course approach to type 2 diabetes risk reduction after gestational diabetes

open access: yesDiabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
The potential role of family meals in a life‐course approach to type 2 diabetes risk‐reduction after gestational diabetes. Abstract Aims Gestational diabetes (GDM) more than doubles maternal and child risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Post‐GDM, a life‐course approach to T2D risk reduction includes family nutrition‐focused health promotion.

State Capture and the Limits of Human Capital: Education and Institutional Quality in Post‐Socialist Europe

open access: yesEconomics of Transition and Institutional Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using the European Quality of Government Index across 183 NUTS‐2 regions (2010–2024), this paper documents that education improves institutional quality in Western Europe but not in postsocialist regions. Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition reveals that 77 percent of the West–East institutional gap reflects different returns to education, not ...

Numerical Generation of Mode I Stress Intensity Factors for Narrow Elliptical Cracks in Round Bars

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
Summary The finite element model can replicate solutions found in the literature. The numerical crack tip singularity is analyzed in detail. Geometric correction factors decrease as the surface crack narrows. The polynomial fitting enables precise reproduction of SIF solutions.

Regenerative wheat management: The relative effects of farm practices on the biodiversity of invertebrates

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Wheat in North America harbours a diverse insect community (565 morphospecies were identified in this study), and pests represented <7% of specimens collected. Regenerative wheat management promoted insect diversity without increasing pest populations.

Potential of organogel‐based colloidal hydrogels for new cosmetic formulations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Colloidal hydrogels are formed by combining anionic, cationic, or nonionic surfactants with two oils of cosmetic interest: sweet almond oil and phytosqualane. These systems are obtained through hot emulsification followed by cooling, which leads to the aggregation of gel‐like particles.

Targeted keratin repair: A plant‐based approach to hair strength and surface restoration

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Application of Avena strigosa seed extract may reinforce keratin bonding, restoring hair fibre integrity by promoting intramolecular interactions at damaged sites of keratin proteins. Abstract Objective Chemical and thermal stress disrupts the intramolecular and intermolecular interactions that stabilize hair keratin, leading to structural degradation ...

Do Parents Propagate Inequality Among Children? Evidence From Chinese and Swedish Twins

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Economists have long studied how parental behavior shapes within‐family inequality, yet empirical findings remain mixed. Using twins data from China and Sweden, we examine the predominant mechanisms reported in the literature. Parents in both countries invest similarly during childhood.
