Bound by blood and bloodshed: Sibling ties and participation in genocidal violence

Criminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Focusing on the 1994 genocide in Rwanda, we examine how sibling relationships—one of the most salient familial bonds—influence individual engagement in violence during mass atrocity. Drawing on an adaptation of differential association and social learning theories for contexts of mass atrocity, we analyze a novel dataset linking over 300,000 ...

Pelvic pain and lower urinary tract symptoms; long‐term comparison between women with and without mid‐urethral sling insertion

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Women aged 50 or above, who have undergone mid‐urethral sling surgery 10–14 years earlier for stress urinary incontinence, report more pelvic pain than age‐matched women. Other lower urinary tract symptoms also seem to be more prevalent in women 50 years or above with previous surgery.

Schedule‐dependent neuroprotection by pioglitazone in a novel model of α‐synucleinopathy in rats: Integrated behavioural and histological outcomes

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose α‐Synucleinopathies are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the aggregation and propagation of misfolded α‐synuclein. In Parkinson's disease (PD), the most common α‐synucleinopathy, the progression of motor and nonmotor deficits, and dopaminergic neuron loss, are closely linked to the spreading of misfolded α‐synuclein ...

Bayesian computational methods

, 2010
In this chapter, we will first present the most standard computational challenges met in Bayesian Statistics, focussing primarily on mixture estimation and on model choice issues, and then relate these problems with computational solutions.

A Cumulative and Strengths‐Based Approach to the Characteristics of Families With Complex and Multiple Problems: A Case File Study

Child &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on families experiencing complex and multiple problems (FECMP) has been dominated by a problem‐centred perspective and a focus on individual (i.e., single) risk factors. This case file study extends previous work by mapping (1) the nature and prevalence of individual problems and protective factors, (2) their accumulation and (3 ...

Reproductive plasticity and environmental tolerance of invasive African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in a tropical Brazilian river

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive alien species (IAS) pose a significant threat to biodiversity, particularly when endowed with high ecological and reproductive plasticity. The African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, is one such species, widely recognized for its ability to colonize and establish in diverse tropical ecosystems.

Contrasting population genomic structuring of northern pike (Esox lucius L.) in fresh‐ and brackish water environments: Implications for management and conservation

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the factors that shape population genetic structure is crucial for advancing evolutionary studies and developing effective management and conservation strategies. The northern pike (Esox lucius L.) is a top teleost predator that inhabits fresh and brackish water environments in the northern hemisphere.

Welfare and Physiological Consequences of Non‐Lethal Blood Sampling From the Caudal Vasculature of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar L.)

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate welfare and health effects following single and repeated non‐lethal blood sampling from the caudal vasculature of Atlantic salmon. Two experiments were conducted at three different temperatures: a 6‐week freshwater experiment with fish weighing 50–100 g, undergoing up to four blood withdrawals, and a

Forty Years of Empirical Evidence of Cointegration and Nonlinear Equilibrium Correction in UK Money Demand Since the XIXth Century

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the seminal contributions of Friedman and Schwartz and of Hendry and Ericsson, instability in money demand has remained a central issue in the literature. This study broadens and generalizes the first evidence for the United Kingdom of stable long‐ and short‐run broad money demand extending back to the nineteenth century. Using nonlinear
