Comparative Analysis of Heat Exposure‐Induced Molecular Changes in Two Turtle Species with Contrasting Thermal Adaptations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum is highlighted in response to heat stress in Platysternon megacephalum. Under heat stress, the up‐regulation of genes such as CHOP in protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum pathway, along with the suppression of energy and lipid metabolism and the up‐regulation of JARID2 expression, leads to ...

Portfolio optimization based on network centralities: Which centrality is better for asset selection during global crises?

Journal of Management Science and Engineering
We construct correlation-based networks linking 86 assets (stock indices, bond indices, foreign exchange rates, commodity futures, and cryptocurrencies) and analyze the impact of asset selection on portfolio optimization using different centrality ...

Kaempferol Protects Intestinal Health in Chinese Forest Musk Deer Possibly by Regulating Intestinal Microbiota and Inhibiting the NF‐κB/NLRP3 Signaling Pathway

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Kaempferol modulates the tryptophan metabolism pathway by increasing the abundances of Christensenellaceae R7 group, Bacteroides, and Blautia and reducing that of Rikenellaceae RC9 gut group, thereby significantly increasing the levels of ILA and IAA. This process inhibits the activation of NF‐κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway, reduces pro‐inflammatory factor

Network Structure and the Efficiency Gains from Mergers: Evidence from U.S. Freight Railroads

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The trade‐off between market power and efficiency gains is central to antitrust analyses of mergers, but empirical evidence quantifying efficiencies remains limited. Using transaction‐level data from U.S. freight railroads (1985–2005), this article quantifies merger‐induced cost efficiencies, driven mainly by eliminating inter‐railroad ...

Audit Committee Networks and Audit Fees: A European Analysis

Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the association between audit committee member networks and audit fees in a sample of 225 publicly traded firms from eight European countries between 2005 and 2020. Using social network analysis, we find that director interconnections—established through overlapping board memberships—are associated with audit fees.

Social networks: Prestige, centrality, and influence (Invited paper) [PDF]

We deliver a short overview of di erent centrality measures and influence concepts in social networks, and present the relation-algebraic approach to the concepts of power and influence. First, we briefly discuss four kinds of measures of centrality: the

More Than a Course, More Than a Method: Study Circles as a Pedagogical and Research Method Working With Asylum Seekers Across Language Barriers and Differences

Area, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Acknowledging the limits of participatory action research, this paper explores how to include participants in the asylum process despite facing practical and ethical challenges. Concretely, the paper argues for research to align with participating organisations' knowledge, methods and resources.

School achievement in the Brazilian rural Amazon: An analysis of the interaction among motor, cognitive and environmental factors

British Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract A cross‐sectional study of 106 students (7–12 years) from a rural school in the Brazilian Amazon investigated the interaction among motor, cognitive and environmental factors on school achievement using network analysis. Students with good school performance were significantly older and showed superior global physical fitness, motor ...
