Abstract This study examines the adaptive market hypothesis in the prewar and wartime Japanese stock market using a new market capitalization‐weighted price index. First, we find that the degree of market efficiency varies over time and with major historical events. This implies that the hypothesis is supported in this market.

Human embryonic stem cell‐derived Immunity‐and‐Matrix‐Regulatory Cells (IMRCs) effectively attenuate pulmonary fibrosis by secreting Matrix Metalloproteinase‐1 (MMP1), which directly degrades excess collagen I in the extracellular matrix. By directly degrading collagen I, IMRCs reverse ECM stiffness, suppress myofibroblast activation, and promote a ...

Cultivation of Aesthetic Experience as the Aim of Environmental Art Education: A Deweyan View
Abstract Challenging the dichotomy of nature and culture is broadly seen as a key aim of environmental art education. Some of the literature on the topic focuses on the question of what metaphor for the relationship between nature and culture environmental art educators should adopt and attempt to convey to their students. In this article, I argue that

Abstract Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially exosomes, are nanoparticles increasingly recognized as key regulators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological aspects. Despite rapid progress, inconsistencies in nomenclature, isolation, and characterization continue to restrict translational advancement.

Presentation of preload and afterload to isolated heart preparations
Abstract figure legend The heart can be isolated, and when this is so, it must be subjected to loading conditions. Over the past few decades, various loading methods have been developed to prescribe preload and afterload to isolated working‐heart preparations.

Designing PLA/PHBV Implants With Degradation Matched to Normal or Inflammatory Tissues
PLA/PHBV blends are investigated under simulated normal and pathological conditions. Multivariate statistical analysis decouples the competing effects of water‐uptake‐driven hydrolysis and crystallinity‐imposed barriers. Melt‐state rheological parameters serve as structural probes linking phase morphology to degradation kinetics. A semi‐empirical model

ABSTRACT Viscous dampers (VDs) are widely used to mitigate the excessive responses of long‐span bridges. However, VDs face some intricate challenges in engineering practices, including high damping coefficient requirement, potential base shear amplification and tremendous damping force under high velocity. To address these issues, this study develops a

Vertical Vibration Reduction of Maglev Vehicles Using Nonlinear Model Predictive Control
ABSTRACT This work presents a novel nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) strategy for high‐speed Maglev vehicles that explicitly incorporates mechanical suspension dynamics into the control model. Unlike conventional approaches, which often neglect the interaction between levitation magnet and car body motion, the proposed method enables ...
