The Influence of Common Language on the Trade of Wheat and Bakery Products
ABSTRACT This study examines whether sharing a common official language increases the probability that two countries engage in bilateral trade of wheat and bakery products. Using a binary choice framework applied to 54,780 country‐pair observations for 2023, probit and logit models of the extensive margin of trade are estimated, with a focus on whether

Weather Attention in Online Discourse and Price Uncertainty in Agricultural Futures Markets
ABSTRACT Weather is a central determinant of production risk in agricultural markets, but markets respond not only to weather conditions themselves, but also to how those conditions are noticed, framed, and interpreted in public discourse. In this setting, real‐time online weather discussions may shape price uncertainty by influencing how market ...

Reduced‐port laparoscopic colectomy (RPLC) for colorectal cancer offers modest intraoperative benefits, including shorter operative time and lower blood loss, while maintaining comparable postoperative recovery, lymph node yield, and complication rates to multi‐port laparoscopic colectomy (MPLC).

This article investigates how persistent homology, persistent Laplacians, and persistent commutative algebra reveal complementary geometric, topological, and algebraic invariants or signatures of real‐world data. By analyzing shapes, synthetic complexes, fullerenes, and biomolecules, the article shows how these mathematical frameworks enhance ...

Inspired by the Mexican jumping bean, this study presents a centimeter‐scale, electronics‐free robot that merges principles from both the animal and plant kingdoms. A thermo‐responsive actuator mimicking larval motion, enclosed within a uniquely shaped plant‐seed‐inspired shell, generates jumping, rolling, flipping, sliding, and climbing through ...

Abstract This study develops and empirically estimates a structural framework to decompose the causal pathways of multilevel behavioral interventions targeting adolescent health behaviors. We apply this framework to the Kids SIPsmartER (KSS) program, a 6‐month, school‐based intervention evaluated through a clustered randomized controlled trial in rural

Abstract Preferential trade agreements (PTAs) contain various non‐tariff provisions, yet identifying their trade effects remains challenging because these commitments are high‐dimensional and strongly correlated within agreements. We estimated a theory‐consistent structural gravity model with domestic flows for 26 agricultural subsectors over 1988–2017

The role of venture‐financed startups in innovation for US agriculture
Abstract To evaluate the role played by startup companies in the innovation ecosystem of US agriculture, we compile a unique dataset of 6024 new entrants founded 1987–2019 that details their financing lifecycles, annual economic performance, and patenting activities.

Manganese‐modulated chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI, Manga CEST, leverages intracellular Mn2+ uptake to selectively perturb CEST contrast. Comparing Z‐spectra before and after Mn reveals compartment‐specific contributions. In vivo, neuron‐enriched Mn accumulation induces frequency‐dependent attenuation (3–4 ppm), enabling cell‐weighted

Trace Elements Genetics: A Potential Role in Treatment‐Resistant Major Psychoses and Related Traits?
ABSTRACT Trace elements are pivotal to key biological processes, with possible effects on psychopathology. We investigated the hypothesis of shared genetic factors between trace elements levels, treatment resistance and related traits. We used genome‐wide summary statistics for trace elements blood concentration, treatment‐resistant depression (TRD ...
