How to quantify between-study heterogeneity in single-arm evidence synthesis?—It depends!

open access: yesSystematic Reviews
Background Random-effects meta-analysis models account for between-study heterogeneity by estimating and incorporating the heterogeneity variance parameter $${\tau }^{2}$$ τ 2 .

The Cost of Legal Restrictions on Experience Rating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We investigate the cost of legal restrictions on experience rating in auto and home insurance. The cost is an opportunity cost as experience rating can mitigate the problems associated with unobserved heterogeneity in claim risk, including mispriced ...

Effective boundary conditions for dense granular flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We derive an effective boundary condition for granular flow taking into account the effect of the heterogeneity of the force network on sliding friction dynamics.

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Genetic heterogeneity of within-family variance of body weight in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2013
Canalization is defined as the stability of a genotype against minor variations in both environment and genetics. Genetic variation in degree of canalization causes heterogeneity of within-family variance. The aims of this study are twofold: (1) quantify

Self-organized Boolean game on networks

open access: yes, 2005
A model of Boolean game with only one free parameter $p$ that denotes the strength of herd behavior is proposed where each agent acts according to the information obtained from his neighbors in network and those in the minority are rewarded.

Heterogeneity of (Co)Variance Components for Jersey Type Traits

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2001
Heterogeneity of (co)variances for US Jersey linear and final scores was investigated with data from February 2000 USDA genetic evaluations. (Co)variances were estimated from data sets defined by parity, contemporary group size, and mean final score. First-appraisal scores during first or second parity from records that included all traits were studied.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.
