Do Foreign Investments Promote Export Diversification in a Host Country? Evidence From China's Investment in Africa

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The heavy reliance of many African nations on a few export products (typically primary products) for export earnings often creates significant development challenges. China's participation in Africa has been steadily growing, presenting both opportunities and risks for the continent's economic progress. This study aims to analyse the impact of

Bed rest decreases resting skeletal muscle O2 uptake and resting energy expenditure in young and elderly subjects

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A decrease in resting muscle O2 uptake (V̇O2m${\dot V_{{{\mathrm{O}}_2}{\mathrm{m}}}}$) described during bed rest (BR) could determine a decreased whole‐body resting energy expenditure (REE), potentially useful during prolonged spaceflights. Two groups of recreationally active men (young [Y], n = 8, age 23 ± 5 years; elderly [E], n = 10, age ...

The effects of bed rest on cardiometabolic health: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Horizontal bed rest (HBR) and head‐down tilt (HDT) are models of physical inactivity. In this systematic review and meta‐analysis, we aimed to quantify changes in cardiometabolic outcomes during HBR and HDT in healthy adults. Following the PRISMA guidelines, we searched PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library until 1 October 2025 ...

Phenotypic and genetic resistance to Septoria blotch disease in European wheat varieties

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Zymoseptoria tritici, the causal agent of Septoria tritici blotch (STB), poses a critical threat to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production in temperate Europe, underscoring the need for durable genetic resistance. Here, we screened 151 winter wheat varieties at the seedling stage using a mixed inoculum of five virulent isolates.

Metabolic and Antioxidant Status, Telomere Lengths of Individuals With Prediabetes in Context of 3 Months of Insoluble Dietary Fibre Intake During the SARS‐CoV2 Pandemic

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 3, May 2026.
This 3‐month study investigated the effects of 15 g/day insoluble fibre (IF) supplementation in 29 adults with impaired fasting glucose. While IF significantly reduced glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and 2‐h plasma glucose (2hPG), body fat in participants without recent COVID‐19, it also led to unexpected increases in blood pressure and a reduction in ...
