Semi‐automated MicroED system unveils multiple polymorphs in fish‐derived guanine crystals

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section C, EarlyView.
A semi‐automated MicroED data collection and processing system was established and shown to be suitable for the structural investigation of submicrometer‐scale biogenic crystals.Certain fish display silvery or blue colour, not through pigments, but through specialized guanine crystals that exist within iridophore cells in their skin. Within these cells,

‘Mere Amateurs’? Elementary Teachers and the Making of Scientific Authority in the British Child Study Movement

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract This article offers new perspectives on the relationship between elementary teaching, scientific expertise and the professionalization of the human sciences. Previous scholarship has demonstrated the ready existence of ‘amateur’ science societies in the nineteenth century where cross‐class exchanges were common.

THE VIOLENCE OF FULL COST RECOVERY: Financing Water Infrastructure, and the History and Future of Perpetual Crisis in Mombasa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Foregrounding the role of finance, this article examines the historical production and future trajectory of the urban water crisis in Mombasa. Drawing on archival research and contemporary fieldwork, it traces how principles of full cost recovery—institutionalized during the colonial period and later reworked through postcolonial ...

Rapid Human Skin Barrier Disruption by Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate and Associated Molecular Mechanisms

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Short‐term exposure to SDS rapidly disrupts human skin barrier integrity within minutes, as detected by real‐time electrical impedance spectroscopy. SDS‐induced barrier dysfunction is driven by oxidative stress, leading to suppression of immune/barrier mediators and activation of stress, lipid remodeling, and epidermal differentiation pathways ...

Regularized reduced rank regression for mixed predictor and response variables

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we introduce the Generalized Mixed Regularized Reduced Rank Regression model (GMR4), an extension of the GMR3 model designed to improve performance in high‐dimensional settings. GMR3 is a regression method for a mix of numeric, binary and ordinal response variables, while also allowing for mixed‐type predictors through optimal ...

Understanding the Link Between Social Support Networks, Self‐Efficacy and Future Orientation During Emerging Adulthood: A Comparison of At‐Risk and Non‐at‐Risk Emerging Adults

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT At‐risk emerging adults may be less inclined to invest in future goals, yet the mechanisms underlying their future orientation (FO) remain unclear. Therefore, this study examined how social support network attributes contribute to FO in at‐risk and non‐at‐risk emerging adults and the mediating role of self‐efficacy.

Rethinking areas of endemism and barriers: perspectives for a causal historical biogeography and a critique of Schultz and Cracraft (2024)

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Historical biogeography faces a persistent conceptual and methodological dilemma concerning the nature of its central analytical units. Using the recent proposal by Schultz and Cracraft (Cladistics 40, 653) as a catalyst, this article critiques the argument that causal inference necessitates the replacement of areas of endemism with barriers ...

Unveiling Gut Homeostasis Disruption in Sepsis: Towards an Integrated Mechanistic and Translational Roadmap

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Elucidating the contribution of gut‐organ axes will provide new insights for developing combined therapeutic strategies against sepsis‐associated multiple organ dysfunction. ABSTRACT Sepsis, a life‐threatening clinical syndrome precipitated by a maladaptive host response to infection, is associated with substantial morbidity and high mortality rates ...
