Language Maintenance Following International Mobility: A Longitudinal Study of Korean Foreign Language Learners

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Second language acquisition research has largely emphasized language development, often overlooking language maintenance following international mobility. Addressing this gap, the present longitudinal mixed‐methods study examined oral proficiency maintenance among foreign language (FL) learners 9 months after returning from residence abroad ...

L2 Chinese Grammatical Acquisition and Processing: A Substantive and Methodological Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a systematic review of 92 empirical studies on Chinese as a second language (CSL) in grammatical processing and development, synthesizing their substantive foci and methodological characteristics. The results reveal consistent scholarly attention to cross‐linguistic topics, with less focus on features that are distinctively

Heritability of Productive, Reproductive and Carcass Traits in Pure‐Bred and Cross‐Bred Pigs: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heritability (h2) is a key parameter in animal breeding, but its magnitude and consistency across pure‐bred (PB) and cross‐bred (CB) pig populations remain poorly understood. This study aimed to compare heritability estimates between PB and CB populations for economically relevant traits through a systematic review and meta‐analysis.

Intermittent theta burst stimulation to extend early ketamine response in treatment‐resistant depression: A preliminary enriched randomized, double‐blind, sham‐controlled trial

open access: yesPsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Background Ketamine produces rapid antidepressant effects in treatment‐resistant depression (TRD), but these benefits diminish within days. Whether intermittent theta‐burst stimulation (iTBS) can sustain ketamine response and whether such effects are associated with changes in large‐scale brain networks are unclear.

Coupled plagioclase dissolution and K‐feldspar overgrowth precipitation preserve anomalously high permeability in deeply buried sandstones

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the formation mechanism responsible for anomalously high permeability (AHP) observed in the Eocene sandstones at depths from 3824 to 3832 m in the Huizhou Sag, Pearl River Mouth Basin, China, using helium porosity and permeability measurements, thin section, scanning electron microscopy, electron probe X‐ray ...

P2X3 receptor antagonism improves hindlimb blood flow during exercise in a conscious ovine model of hypertensive heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A preclinical large‐animal model of hypertensive heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) was used to examine the role of purinergic P2X3 receptor signalling during treadmill exercise. Animals were instrumented with either thoracic cardiac output and coronary flow probes or abdominal renal and hindlimb blood flow ...
