Compulsory voting increases men's turnout most

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Equal turnout fosters equal representation. As such, researchers have long sought to understand what causes gender differences in voter participation. I argue that compulsory voting increases men's turnout relative to that of women. This is because men are particularly receptive to external incentives, while women are more intrinsically ...

Polarization over the priority of political problems

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract What drives ideological division about political problems? When prioritizing which problems are most in need of redress, voters might disagree about the severity of individual outcomes that constitute such problems; the prevalence of those problems; or whether such problems are amenable to solution by government action. We field a large survey

Proteomic and Transcriptomic Signatures of Poor Asthma Symptom Control in the U‐BIOPRED Cohort

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
No stable features were identified as associated with asthma symptom control in transcriptomics or sputum proteomics. Higher TWEAKR/TNFRSF12A and MBL/MBP‐C serum levels increased the odds of uncontrolled symptoms, while higher MK08/MAPK8 and CD5L serum levels decreased the odds, after adjustment for clinical variables.

Semen quality in patients with testicular cancer is associated with age and with greatly elevated levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor semen quality is a well‐known feature in patients with testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) at the time of diagnosis but the underlying biological reasons are incompletely understood. Objectives This study aimed to identify GCT‐specific clinical factors that are involved with poor semen quality in GCT patients.

Stroke burden and functional impacts in adults with sickle cell disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Stroke was identified in 4.6% of 454 adults with sickle cell disease. Stroke occurred not only across HbSS/Sβ0 phenotypes but also HbSC/Sβ+ as well, challenging traditional assumptions. Stroke was associated with long‐term functional impairment, including cognitive deficits and higher disability scores.

Oral Health—Head and Neck Cancers: Addressing Confounding Through Negative Control and Quantitative Bias Analyses

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives While there are plausible biological explanations for the association between oral health and head and neck cancers (HNC), existing studies have yielded conflicting results. A key concern is that these associations are influenced by mediators, unmeasured risk factors, and biases. To address this, a negative control exposure was used

Effect of Connective Tissue Graft as an Adjunct to Guided Bone Regeneration in the Surgical Treatment of Peri‐Implantitis: A Dual‐Center Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesClinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate whether adding a connective tissue graft (CTG) to guided bone regeneration (GBR) improves clinical and radiographic outcomes in surgical peri‐implantitis treatment. Materials and Methods Thirty‐two patients with peri‐implantitis were randomly assigned to receive GBR and CTG (test group, TG) or GBR alone (control group ...

General movements and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 2 years of age in infants born very preterm

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
This study examines the predictive role of early motor quality in very preterm born infants using the Motor Optimality Score ‐ Revised (MOS‐R). The graphical abstract depicts the link between newborn general movements and cognitive as well as motor outcomes at two years.

Characteristics of unilateral cerebral palsy according to gestational age at birth: A retrospective study

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Unilateral cerebral palsy (CP) affects 826 children in the Canadian CP Registry: 69% born at term, 15% 32 to 37 weeks, and 16% less than 32 weeks. Gestational age at birth did not affect impairments such as vision or hearing impairment, ambulation, seizures, or feeding difficulty.
