There Is Always a Bigger Fish. Determinants of Power Perceptions in Swiss Biodiversity Policy

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF) views power as crucial in policy processes, but the nature of coalition power, its determinants, and how to empirically measure it remain understudied. In this article, we use a mixed method approach and social network analysis to explore power relationships in the biodiversity policy subsystem in ...

Does the stepping‐stone effect of temporary agency employment vary over the business cycle?

The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine the cyclicality of the stepping‐stone effect of temporary agency work in Germany across three business cycles using administrative data and a timing‐of‐events model. We estimate in‐ and post‐treatment effects and their response to the unemployment rate.

Metasurface-enabled single-shot and complete Mueller matrix imaging

When light scatters off an object, its polarization, in general, changes - a transformation described by the object's Mueller matrix. Mueller matrix imaging is an important technique in science and technology to image the spatially varying polarization ...

Climate Shocks and Unemployment Claims

Scottish Journal of Political Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using a US state–level climate risk measure and the panel local projections framework, this study analyzes both linear and asymmetric effects of climate shocks on unemployment claims. The results provide strong evidence that climate shocks significantly increase both initial and continuing claims, with the linear estimates showing a stronger ...

The mitochondrial‐targeted antioxidant SkQ1 prevents skeletal muscle mitochondrial‐apoptotic but not necroptotic signalling during ovarian cancer

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend An evaluation of the degree to which mitochondrial hydrogen peroxide emission (mH2O2)‐mediated apoptotic and necroptotic signalling contributes to skeletal muscle atrophy in an orthotopic epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) model. To determine whether attenuating mH2O2 could prevent regulated cell death signalling and mitigate muscle

Decomponology: A board game for understanding soil carbon dynamics

Natural Sciences Education, Volume 55, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Soils sustain life and regulate global carbon cycling, yet the processes governing soil organic matter dynamics are inherently complex, involving multiple pathways and positive and negative feedbacks. Traditional concepts such as humus often portrayed soil carbon as a static pool whose persistence was attributed largely to the inherent ...

Characterization of carABpyrB operon and role of pyrE in Francisella novicida biofilm

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Pyrimidine biosynthesis links metabolism to biofilm regulation in Francisella novicida. During nutrient limitation, reduced pyrimidine availability shifts metabolism from uracil salvage to de novo synthesis, increasing biofilm formation. Mutants in carABpyrB exhibit uracil‐dependent growth defects and elevated biofilm:growth ratios, revealing ...

Effect of Green‐Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles From Nepeta pogonosperma and Astrodaucus persicus on the Reduction of Bap Gene Expression in Strong Biofilm‐Producing Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Green‐synthesized silver nanoparticles from Nepeta pogonosperma and Astrodaucus persicus significantly inhibit biofilm formation and downregulate bap gene expression in multidrug‐resistant clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii. This eco‐friendly approach offers a promising strategy to combat antimicrobial resistance.

Adjuvant Antibacterial Effects of Mouriri Elliptica Against Clinical Multidrug Resistant Gram‐Negative Bacterial Strains

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
The ethanolic leaf extract of Mouriri elliptica exhibited antibacterial and antibiofilm activities against multidrug‐resistant clinical isolates and enhanced the activity of ampicillin. Its diverse chemical profile and low acute toxicity support this Cerrado species as a promising source of natural antibacterial adjuvants. ABSTRACT Bacterial resistance
