The economic foundations of powersharing: Evidence from Africa
Abstract How—and with whom—do rulers share power? Existing research focuses on the strategic logic of powersharing. In this paper, we analyze its economic foundations. Powersharing is modeled as a subnational fiscal contract, in which rulers allocate political representation based on constituencies’ revenue potential. Empirically, we combine historical

A Real Time Face Recognition and Tracking Framework Using Lightweight Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]
Human face recognition and tracking (FRT) plays a vital role in various fields, including security, authentication, and human-computer interaction. The main modules of the FRT system are detection, feature extraction, and FRT.

Background and Purpose Migraine is a neurovascular disorder largely mediated by calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP). This study explores the role of the nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ)–N/OFQ receptor (NOP) system in CGRP‐induced periorbital mechanical allodynia (PMA) in mice.

New biosensors and transgenic mice for multiplex cGMP imaging
Background and Purpose Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a versatile second messenger that is important for human (patho‐)physiology and pharmacotherapy. Live‐cell imaging of cGMP with biosensors allows to elucidate its spatiotemporal dynamics in real time under close‐to‐native conditions. However, to monitor two separate cGMP pools or cGMP/cAMP

Mice expressing only mutant PTEN Y138L, a protein which shows normal suppression of cellular AKT yet lacks protein phosphatase activity, die in utero, and heterozygous mice display a range of tumors. This indicates both the lipid and protein phosphatase activities of PTEN work together for normal tumor suppression and embryonic development.

Transgenic selection and underlying mechanisms in apicomplexan parasites
Transgenic selection markers have driven genetic engineering in apicomplexans, enabling precise, iterative experiments. This review discusses mechanistic details of drug selection markers, strategies for marker recycling, and practical considerations for several clinically relevant parasites.

Use of FLP/FRT System to StudyDrosophilaDevelopment
Marked clones in mosaic animals have been used extensively to answer developmental questions in Drosophila. Recently, the use of the FLP/FRT system has allowed for the high-frequency production of mosaic animals for 95% of Drosophila genes. Cell markers have been engineered in this system to label mutant clones in both developing tissues and adult ...

Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Treatment for Women and Girls With Hemophilia: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Introduction Hemophilia is an X‐linked bleeding disorder previously thought to present only in men. This sentiment is rapidly changing as the information around women and girls’ experiences of bleeding symptoms has evolved, sparking intense discussion among researchers, clinicians, patients, and patient advocates regarding appropriate ...
