The maximum number of edges of bipartite 1-planar graphs with 1-disk drawings

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics
A graph is 1-planar if it admits a drawing in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. Let G be a bipartite 1-planar graph with bipartition sets X and Y. A 1-disk [Formula: see text] drawing of G is a 1-planar drawing such that all vertices

Exact and metaheuristic approaches to minimizing makespan in parallel machine scheduling with conflicting jobs

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We address the scheduling conflicting jobs on parallel identical machines problem with makespan minimization, a classical and computationally challenging variant of parallel machine scheduling. We develop and evaluate three distinct solution methodologies: a novel constraint programming (CP) formulation, and two metaheuristics: a multi ...

How to optimise tournament draws: The case of the FIFA World Cup

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The organisers of major sports competitions use different policies with respect to constraints in the group draw. Our paper aims to rationalise these choices by analysing the trade‐off between attractiveness (the number of games played by teams from the same geographic zone) and fairness (the departure of the draw mechanism from a uniform ...

The Architecture of Consolidation: Nests of Corporate Control in the Agrochemical Network

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on agricultural consolidation tends to equate corporate control with the dominance of a few large firms. We take an alternative approach that examines control through the explosive growth of legally distinct firms that fragment accountability. Using a new global dataset of 6982 entities linked to BASF, Bayer, Corteva, Dow, DuPont, FMC,

Long‐Term Metabolic Outcomes Following Bariatric Surgery: A Systematic Review, Meta‐Analysis, and Meta‐Regression

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bariatric surgery (BS) has short‐ and medium‐term benefits in improving metabolic syndrome (MetS) components, but its long‐term impact remains incompletely characterized. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to quantify the long‐term effects of BS (≥ 5 years) on fasting blood glucose (FBG), HDL cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), waist ...

Natural Variation in GmSL20 Improves Seed Size and Quality in Soybean

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed size plays an important role in determining crop yield, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying the regulation of this agronomic trait remain incompletely understood in soybean. Here, we perform a genome‐wide association study mapping with seed length variations and identify a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 20, named ...

Systematic Review of Parasite Diversity in Wild Freshwater Fishes and Their Host‐Locality Interactions in Türkiye

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic review documented a taxonomically diverse parasite fauna of freshwater fishes across seven geographical regions of Türkiye, encompassing 11 phyla: Acanthocephala, Annelida, Arthropoda, Choanozoa, Ciliophora, Cnidaria, Euglenozoa, Mollusca, Myzozoa, Nematoda, and Platyhelminthes.

Predicting Relevant Microglia‐Associated Cell–Cell Communication Pathways in Alzheimer's Disease: A Role for SPP1

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 10, October 2026.
We used CellChat to infer altered cell–cell communication in Alzheimer's disease Microglia signal to each other via SPP1 in Alzheimer's disease. SPP1‐expressing microglia are present around amyloid‐β plaques. ABSTRACT Microglia play a key role in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and their increased heterogeneity likely affects disease ...
