How do US States Approach Multi‐Year Expenditure Forecasting?
Abstract In the United States, 30 states publish multi‐year expenditure forecasts, while the remaining exhibit variation in their financial planning practices. Building on the literature examining budget forecasts, this study provides insights from interviews with eight states selected using a typology from a cluster analysis.

Interval identification of natural effects in the presence of outcome‐related unmeasured confounding
Abstract With reference to a binary outcome and a binary mediator, we derive identification bounds for natural effects under a reduced set of assumptions. Specifically, no assumptions about confounding are made that involve the outcome; we only assume no unobserved exposure‐mediator confounding as well as a pair of conditions termed Partially Constant ...

ABSTRACT Background Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a multifactorial, inherited skin disease, estimated to affect ≤ 15% of dogs. Studies of skin messenger mRNA in cAD currently use invasive methods, including blood sampling and biopsy collection, whilst advances in human atopic dermatitis study methodology have demonstrated reliable use of minimally ...

ABCA12 Frameshift Deletion in Domestic Cats With Ichthyosis Fetalis
ABSTRACT Background Ichthyosis fetalis (IF), also known as harlequin ichthyosis, is a rare and often fatal autosomal recessive congenital skin disorder. It is characterized by thickened, hard skin plaques and deep skin fissures that limit mobility and cause malformations of the eyes, lips and ears.

Abstract Repeated hot water immersion can improve cardiovascular health; however, the respective effects of distinct immersion protocols remain unclear. Twenty‐two healthy adults completed three 30‐min hot water immersion bouts of different water temperatures and immersion depths (40°C shoulder‐deep immersion, 40‐Shoulder; 42°C waist‐deep immersion, 42‐

Summary of the study design, metholodgy, results and conclusions. Abstract Due to a lack of technical capacity to directly visualise and quantify microvessels in the skin, little is known regarding regional and/or sex differences. We compared diameter, velocity, flow and density at four regional sites using a novel optical coherence tomography (OCT ...

ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

Application of Group‐Theoretical Approaches in Structural Natural Frequency Analyses
ABSTRACT Group theory has profoundly advanced physics and chemistry in systems with symmetries. Yet its use in structural engineering applications has not yet been fully explored beyond the aesthetics of symmetric designs. This work addresses two significant gaps that have limited the broader adoption of group‐theoretic methods in structural vibration ...
