Distribution models of polysphinctine parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) reveal sampling bias and flag potentially overlooked host interactions

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We quantified the geographical overlap between parasitoid wasps and their known host spiders. We could assess which parasitoid species have more limited information about their interactions and are subject to geographical survey bias. We generated sampling bias maps to assist other researchers in identifying where the main sampling gaps are.

The Role of Union Legitimacy and Identity in Shaping Strategic Choice

Industrial Relations: A Journal of Economy and Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores how union legitimacy and identity shape union strategies. It highlights that while union identity is key to understanding strategic variation, legitimacy also plays a crucial role as unions must continuously earn and maintain it with various constituencies.

DNA‐based identification of anadromous fishes (Alosa spp., Family Clupeidae) in stomach contents of marine groundfish

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Using DNA techniques for prey identification is an emerging approach for enhancing the precision and accuracy of trophic information. We evaluated the effectiveness of DNA‐based prey identification in conjunction with visual stomach content analysis of commercially important groundfish in the nearshore Gulf of Maine, with a focus on ...

Leader‐Follower Dynamics in Shareholder Activism

The Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a theory of coordination and influence among blockholders. Privately informed activists time their trades in sequence to lower acquisition costs, prompting a strategic use of order flows: leader activists create trading gains for their followers, ultimately influencing their willingness to bear greater value‐enhancing intervention ...

Partisan Entrepreneurship

The Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Republicans start more firms than Democrats. In a sample of 40 million party‐identified Americans between 2005 and 2017, we find that 5.5% of Republicans and 3.7% of Democrats become entrepreneurs. This partisan entrepreneurship gap is time‐varying—Republicans increase their relative entrepreneurship during Republican administrations and ...

Field Theory and Colonialism: Indirect Colonial Situation as a Social Field in Egypt (1882–1922)

Sociology Lens, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper argues that Egypt under British rule (1882–1922) constituted a field of power in which the local state of Egypt and the British administration competed to dominate three key subfields to ensure control over a contested territory: the modern courts system, policing, and agricultural production.

A Meta‐Analysis of the Effects of Acute Sleep Deprivation on the Cortical Transcriptome in Rodent Models

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
How does sleep deprivation affect the brain? We performed a meta‐analysis of publicly available transcriptional profiling datasets characterising the effects of sleep deprivation on cortical gene expression (n = 293 mice, 16,290 genes) and validated our results in an independent sample (n = 222 mice).

The Limits of Regulatory Capture: Explaining the UK Payment Protection Insurance Mis‐Selling Scandal

Public Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To what extent does regulatory agencies' failure to protect the public from harm result from undue industry influence? We argue that “regulatory capture” is invoked too easily to explain regulatory failure. To re‐examine the relationship between regulatory capture and regulatory failure, we use process‐tracing to study UK regulatory decision ...

Reading Dürer in Late Sixteenth‐Century Padua: Matteo Macigni (ca. 1510–1582), His Library and the Annotated Institutionum geometricarum (Paris, 1535)

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article contributes to the history of material culture and intellectual biography by definitively identifying the Paduan scholar Matteo Macigni (ca. 1510–1582) as the author of the annotations found in a 1535 copy of Albrecht Dürer’s Institutionum geometricarum currently preserved in Vicenza.

Lactate potentiates NMDA receptor currents via an intracellular redox mechanism targeting GluN2B subunits: implications for synaptic plasticity

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Astrocyte‐derived lactate enhances neuronal NMDA receptor (NMDAR) function and synaptic plasticity through a redox‐ and CaMKII‐dependent mechanism. Lactate enters neurons via monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) and is oxidized by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) to pyruvate, generating NADH and increasing the intracellular NADH/NAD ...
