The Impact of Vertical Fiscal Imbalance on Gambling Policies in New South Wales, Australia: The Rise of the Poker Machine

Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study traces how gambling in Australia changed from a simple form of leisure, enjoyed by all social classes in colonial times, to a billion‐dollar industry driven by political and economic imperatives. Using a case study, it links vertical fiscal imbalance (VFI), caused by changes to the state‐federal taxation structure, to the ...

Cannabinoid CB1 allosteric ligands suppress inflammatory pain in male mice without tolerance, motor impairment, memory deficits or respiratory depression

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) engage sites distinct from the orthosteric CB1 cannabinoid receptor binding site. GAT211, a racemic ligand, contains GAT228 (R) and GAT229 (S) enantiomers. Whether enantiomer‐mediated differences in allosteric activation or positive allosteric modulation translate into differences in

Generative AI, Linguistic Hierarchies and Unequal Access in Under‐Resourced Educational Contexts

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing enthusiasm around generative AI (GenAI) as a transformative force in education, access to these technologies remains profoundly unequal. This qualitative study examines how educators and students in under‐resourced Chinese educational contexts experience unequal access to GenAI and interpret its consequences for language ...

In Vitro Effects of Combining Resin Infiltration and At‐Home Bleaching on Hydrogen Peroxide Penetration, Color Change and Enamel Morphology

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the effect of resin infiltration (RI) prior to at‐home bleaching on hydrogen peroxide (HP) penetration into the pulp chamber, color change, and enamel morphology in human teeth with sound enamel or white spot lesions (WSLs), using different RI protocols.

Empowering Discourses, Disempowering Outcomes: How do Women Make Sense of Unequal Divisions of Housework in China?

Journal of Marriage and Family, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This research examines how women make sense of the persistent inequality in household responsibilities in China, which has in some cases intensified across cohorts. Background Despite women's high employment rates, household divisions remain deeply unequal in China, and surprisingly, men's housework has even decreased over the past ...

Multiparametric Ultrasonographic Phenotyping of the Masseter Muscle in Temporomandibular Disorders and Clinically Defined Probable Bruxism

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Multiparametric masseter ultrasonography combines B‐mode morphometry, CSA‐derived sonographic estimated volume, strain elastography and fractal‐dimension texture analysis to characterise masseter muscle phenotypes in adults classified by temporomandibular disorder status and clinically defined probable bruxism‐positive phenotype.

Data-Aided Versus Blind Single-Carrier Coherent Receivers

IEEE Photonics Journal, 2010
Fiber-optic research in signal processing for the first generation of coherent communication systems was dominated by receivers with blind adaptation. Next-generation systems will require a scalable and modular design for higher order modulation formats.
