Enhancing General and Academic L2 Writing Complexity Through Dialogue Journal Writing: The Role of Learners' Motivational Beliefs

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Writing is crucial in tertiary education, yet enhancing the complexity of academic writing presents significant challenges for second language (L2) learners. This study explores the potential of dialogue journal writing (DJW), an interactive and low‐stress classroom activity, to enhance writing complexity among novice L2 writers.

Phthalate Metabolite, Mono(2‐Ethyl‐5‐Hydroxyhexyl) Phthalate (MEHHP), Promotes Uterine‐Fibroid–Associated Phenotypes in Myometrial Stem Cell‐Derived 3D Organoids

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how phthalate exposure contributes to uterine fibroid (UF) development by studying the effects of the Mono‐(2‐ethyl‐5‐hydroxyhexyl) phthalate (MEHHP), a metabolite of Di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate, on myometrial stem cells (MMSCs).

Diflubenzuron Caused Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Ca2+ Homeostasis Disruption, and Intrinsic Apoptosis in Trophoblastic Cells

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diflubenzuron is used as an insect growth inhibitor, and its potential risk to human health was raised owing to the possibility of environmental residues and human exposure. This study aimed to investigate the toxic mechanism of diflubenzuron on trophoblastic cells such as HTR8/SVneo and JEG‐3 cells. We investigated mitochondrial function, Ca2+

Dopamine: The Essential Bridge Mediating Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Hippocampus‐Dependent Learning and Memory Impairments

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea is a clinical syndrome that triggers a series of pathophysiologic changes, including disturbed sleep architecture, chronic intermittent hypoxia and hypercapnia, and ultimately severe cognitive dysfunction. The hippocampus plays a key role in various cognitive processes such as learning and memory.

The company you keep: The influence of popular delinquents and deviant brokers on offending trajectories

Criminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Research on how delinquent peer associations affect individuals’ life courses is limited. This paper addresses this gap by examining delinquent peer network characteristics and their impact on offending trajectories through social network analysis (SNA) and group‐based trajectory modeling (GBTM).
