Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule

Network Structure and the Efficiency Gains from Mergers: Evidence from U.S. Freight Railroads

open access: yesThe RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The trade‐off between market power and efficiency gains is central to antitrust analyses of mergers, but empirical evidence quantifying efficiencies remains limited. Using transaction‐level data from U.S. freight railroads (1985–2005), this article quantifies merger‐induced cost efficiencies, driven mainly by eliminating inter‐railroad ...

Contact sensitisers activate keratinocytes and induce cytotoxicity via Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 in allergic contact dermatitis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a frequent inflammatory skin disease with limited therapeutic options. While neuronal Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) has been implicated in ACD, the role of keratinocyte TRPA1 remains unclear.

Effects of Meloidogyne incognita on agronomic parameters and structural changes in eggplant (Solanum gilo Raddi) roots treated with Purpureocillium lilacinum

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Meloidogyne incognita impairs eggplant growth through gall formation with changes in root cell wall components and vascular tissue disruption, while the biocontrol agent Purpureocillium lilacinum mitigates these effects by reducing nematode infection. Abstract Meloidogyne spp. induce structural changes during the development of root‐knot galls, leading

High and dry: the persistence of diverse coastal marsh communities depends on available upland area and connection to surrounding waters

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sea‐level‐rise and alterations to natural hydrology have contributed to coastal land loss. To combat coastal land loss and maintain the ecosystem services provided by marshes, marsh creation has been broadly implemented. Marsh creation projects can be performed in conjunction with the construction of elevated terrestrial ridges that seek to mimic ...

‘Why Did You Go to Buda?’: The Humanist Sodality and Mantuan’s Rustic Idyll in Bohuslaus of Hassenstein’s Ecloga sive Idyllion Budae (1503)☆

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract In the late fifteenth century, the Hungarian royal court at Buda was home to a cosmopolitan community of humanists. In early modern historiography, this cultural milieu has often been interpreted as one of the new, emergent ‘centres’ of the Renaissance in East Central Europe.

The Impact of Russia–Ukraine War in Maritime Data

open access: yesThe World Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyses weekly port calls from 2019 to 2026 to evaluate the Russia–Ukraine war's impact on maritime trade. The data reveals clear structural shifts that Ukrainian traffic moved from high‐risk areas like Odesa to safer Danube River ports.

Therapeutic Potential of Carica papaya (L.) Extract on NRF2/KEAP1 and Apoptotic Pathways in Asbestos‐Induced Lung Toxicity

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Asbestos exposure induced oxidative stress, apoptosis, and lung tissue damage in animal models. Treatment with Carica papaya (500 mg/kg) extract improved antioxidant status, reduced oxidative stress biomarkers, and restored lung architecture. Gene expression analysis showed modulation of NRF2/KEAP1 and apoptotic pathways.

Acute Inhalation Exposure to Ultrafine Carbon Black Alters Mitochondrial Substrate Utilization in the Heart

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 7, Page 395-406, July 2026.
ABSTRACT A majority of deaths associated with air pollution are attributed to cardiovascular and heart diseases. Carbon black that represents the carbon core of particulate matter, a major component of air pollution, has been shown to result in cardiac mitochondrial dysfunction.
