Turnout and Invalid Voting in Brazilian Municipal Elections: A Runoff Voting System Tale

Scottish Journal of Political Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper assesses the impact of Brazil's hybrid mayoral voting system on voters' choices and examines the shift in blank, null, and turnout between the first and second rounds. Using fixed‐effects and RDD techniques over 5570 municipalities between 2000 and 2020, this study shows that runoff voting generates more abstention and invalid ...

Escape Body: A Gamified Problem‐Based Learning Project in Primary Education

School Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Young learners' lack of motivation to study scientific‐related subjects nowadays is a topic of concern in our society. This study followed a quasi‐experimental design with a predominantly quantitative methods approach, complemented by qualitative data, to investigate how the combination of gamified and problem‐based learning could influence ...

Scents of care: Multispecies relations in Pakistan's heatwave

The Australian Journal of Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how odour, intensified by heat, shapes the sensory aspects of social and multispecies relations in Pakistan. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Kasur's tanneries and Lahore's animal shelters during a period of record‐breaking heat, it analyses how smell structures inclusion and exclusion, mediates encounters with humans

Controlled trial of cervical cancer screening frequency among human‐papillomavirus‐vaccinated women

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 7, Page 1941-1951, 1 April 2026.
What's new? Since the introduction of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine in 2006, vaccine‐type infections have declined markedly. As nonvaccine HPV types generally carry lower oncogenic potential, this shift warrants reevaluation of cervical screening regimens.

Climate shocks, democratization and (a culture of) cooperation

Economica, Volume 93, Issue 370, Page 524-551, April 2026.
Abstract While the direct economic effects of adverse climate shocks are well known, their indirect institutional impact is still poorly understood. To clarify this, we test the idea that adverse climate shocks push time‐inconsistent elites to enact inclusive political institutions, and non‐elites to embrace strong norms of cooperation.

Nutrient addition, but not vertebrate predator exclusion, shapes arthropod communities and herbivory in a temperate forest

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 303-321, April 2026.
We experimentally manipulated top‐down (predator exclusion) and bottom‐up (fertilisation) forces in a temperate forest understory to test effects on arthropod densities, body sizes and herbivory. Predator exclusion had no detectable effect on arthropod density, herbivory damage or body size, whereas fertilisation increased herbivory damage and ...

The Association Between Disordered Eating and Sleep in Non‐Clinical Populations—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Sleep and disordered eating behaviours may be linked through physiological and psychological mechanisms; yet, no review has systematically investigated the relationship between different sleep indicators and disordered eating behaviours and cognitions outside a clinical context.

Macroscopic Market Making Games

Mathematical Finance, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 352-373, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Building on the macroscopic market making framework as a control problem, this paper investigates its extension to stochastic games. In the context of price competition, each agent is benchmarked against the best quote offered by the others. We begin with the linear case.

Supplementing, restructuring, resisting: Maps of Underground space in poetry, embodied performativity, and the “misrepresentationalism” of Harry Beck's Tube diagram

Orbis Litterarum, Volume 81, Issue 2, Page 140-154, April 2026.
Abstract This article considers mental and poetic “maps” of London in their respective relationships to Harry Beck's famous 1930s “circuit‐diagram” map of the underground railway system. This iconic image distorts and radically stylizes London geography; thus, it functions as a tool for planning individual travel itineraries but leads to a ...

Financial Toxicity in Patients With Breast Cancer Treated at Private Medicine Institutions in Brazil

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Financial toxicity (FT) refers to the negative impact of the financial burden of cancer diagnosis and treatment on patients' well‐being. With rising global costs of oncologic therapies, diagnostics, and supportive care, FT has become a key concern in cancer care, influencing adherence, quality of life, and outcomes.
