Staging an Experience of Cultural Heritage Preservation: Consumers' Willingness to Pay for Heirloom Rice in the Philippines

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Cordillera Administrative Region in the Philippines is home to terraced rice embedded in centuries of cultural heritage. However, weak market incentives threaten sustained production, jeopardizing indigenous communities' cultural heritage and the in situ biodiversity of rice genetic resources.

Out-of-pocket expenditures on traditional and Western medicine in Taiwan

International Journal of Public Health, 2012
Coexistence of traditional and modern medicine is common in Asian countries. This paper investigates out-of-pocket expenditures on traditional medicine, traditional medical service, and Western medicine by households in Taiwan.Using a national sample of 13,765 households, the three expenditure equations are estimated with a censored system procedure ...

Structural Insights Into CO2 Transport Pathways in a W‐Formate Dehydrogenase: Structural Basis for CO2 Reduction

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Integrated structural analysis of N. vulgaris formate dehydrogenase AB, an enzyme with applications in climate change mitigation, is reported. The substrate/product diffusion pathways were fully mapped, and a retention site was identified that transiently holds substrates and has a key role in CO2‐reducing activity.

Interpretability and Representability of Commutative Algebra, Algebraic Topology, and Topological Spectral Theory for Real‐World Data

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This article investigates how persistent homology, persistent Laplacians, and persistent commutative algebra reveal complementary geometric, topological, and algebraic invariants or signatures of real‐world data. By analyzing shapes, synthetic complexes, fullerenes, and biomolecules, the article shows how these mathematical frameworks enhance ...

On the Structure and Redox Behavior of Ni and Cu Single Atoms Supported on Carbon Nitride

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Magnetic and electronic spectroscopies, combined with DFT, establish the MN4 binding site of Ni and Cu single atoms on carbon nitride and elucidate their redox photochemistry. Ni undergoes geometry‐preserving, reversible M2+/M+ cycling, whereas Cu collapses to an irreversible low‐coordinate Cu+ state, suppressing photocatalysis.

Out-of-pocket prescription medicine expenditure amongst community-dwelling adults: Findings from the Irish longitudinal study on ageing (TILDA) in 2016

Exploratory Research in Clinical and Social Pharmacy
Background: The number of prescription medicines prescribed to older adults is increasing in Ireland and other countries. This is leading to higher out-of-pocket prescription medicine expenditure for older adults, which has several negative consequences ...
