Artificial Organs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) technology has witnessed remarkable advancements during the last decades. However, further research and development of devices are required to increase, for example, performance‐efficiency, hemocompatibility, and long‐term stability.

Broke Autocrats, Broken Elections: Trade Shocks and Electoral Fraud in Autocracies
Economics &Politics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We argue that when terms‐of‐trade (ToT) shocks reduce resource rents, autocrats lose the fiscal capacity to sustain loyalty through patronage and increasingly rely on electoral manipulation as a survival strategy. We present a simple model in which rents finance patronage in normal times, while adverse shocks reduce the effectiveness of ...

Geopolitical Risk and Domestic Bank Deposits
Financial Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We investigate the relationship between global geopolitical risk and bank deposit flows across a wide panel of European countries. Motivated by the pivotal role of deposit stability for financial intermediation and systemic resilience, we explore whether geopolitical shocks alter depositors’ portfolio choices.

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how the learner‐related factors of language dominance, encompassing language history, proficiency, use, and attitude, modulate congruency effects in multi‐word unit (MWU) processing among early bilinguals. Seventy Cantonese–Putonghua bilinguals completed lexical decision tasks measuring reaction time and accuracy for ...

Liquidity Crises and the Market‐Maker of Last Resort
Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.Abstract We study market illiquidity in an economy subject to nonfundamental shocks. Asset trading occurs via decentralized bargaining. The model has multiple rational expectations equilibria; we associate certain Pareto‐inferior equilibria with liquidity crises.

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

Aggregation and the Structure of Value
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

Silene, a versatile model system: from sex and genome evolution to ecology and speciation
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Fundamental and applied research in evolutionary biology benefits from the use of model systems in which approaches from disparate disciplines can be integrated. Here, we review recent progress in evolutionary research on the long‐standing model system Silene, a large genus with a well‐resolved phylogeny and newly available, expanded genomic ...

Somatic genome‐doubling is the most parsimonious route to allopolyploidy
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary The origin of a polyploid can hinge on a single errant cell division, a mistake in the cell cycle that leads to genome‐doubling and re‐writes the rules of chromosome pairing and segregation. In plants, the evolutionary significance of these errors is magnified by lack of an early sequestered germline, meaning somatic mutations can be heritable.

Psychotherapy and inhibitory control: Insights from fMRI research
Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.Aim Despite the widespread clinical use of psychotherapy, the neural mechanisms linking treatment to changes in inhibitory control networks supporting self‐regulation remain unclear. This study addresses this gap by meta‐analyzing neuroimaging research on how psychotherapy affects brain regions involved in inhibitory control.
