PLACE‐FRAMING URBANITY: The Case of Kalasatama, Helsinki

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Narratives, visuality and symbolic representations are increasingly important in contemporary urban planning and development. This article seeks to understand how urbanity, one of the key goals of Helsinki's recent planning, has been constructed in the Kalasatama regeneration area. The construction of urban image and identity is viewed as soft

Methodological Challenges in Studying Wealthy Families

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Studying the wealthy is not easy. This piece provides suggestions for recruitment, interview strategies, and design to gain high‐quality data on wealthy people. It is based on an interview study of 81 US racially‐diverse families with a median net worth of $25 million. First, to gain access to the wealthy, it is key for the researcher to use a

Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist use and violent crime among US adults

open access: yesCriminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs), a class of medications widely prescribed for diabetes and obesity, have exhibited emerging effects on substance use, reward processing, and impulse control. This study examines whether current GLP‐1 RA use moderates established behavioral pathways to violent crime from impulsivity and ...

An Efficient Approach for Identifying Stable Lobes with Discretization Method

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
This paper presents a new approach for quick identification of chatter stability lobes with discretization method. Firstly, three different kinds of stability regions are defined: absolute stable region, valid region, and invalid region.

Cardiovascular Plasticity and Adaptation of High‐Altitude Birds and Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This schematic depicts the cardiovascular adaptations of mammals and birds to high‐altitude hypoxia. It highlights key phenotypic changes in oxygen transport and cardiac responses, driven by molecular mechanisms including transcriptional regulation and genetic modifications.

Mitigating Human–Large Carnivore Conflicts via Time‐Regulated Management of Free‐Ranging Livestock in the Sanjiangyuan Region, China

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the comprehensive workflow of our study, from the deployment of infrared cameras at sites with high activity of four large carnivores, through data collection and assessment of activity patterns, to the prediction of time periods with potential human–large carnivore conflicts and the proposal of corresponding ...

Comparative Genomics and Functional Evidence for Convergent Adaptation to Hypoxia in Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study reveals convergent selection in mammals adapted to hypoxia. Functional assays demonstrate that amino acid mutations reduce oxidative stress, attenuate hypoxia‐induced injury, and modulate the hypoxia‐inducible transcription factor (HIF)‐driven hypoxic response.
