Abstract figure legend ACE I/D genotype, enzyme activity and integrated physiological adaptations. Upper panel: Conceptual framework linking the ACE I/D polymorphism (left) with circulating/tissue ACE activity (centre; violin plots based on hypothetical data for illustration) and strength/power versus endurance phenotypes (right).

Cortical responses to balance perturbations persist without active postural control
Abstract figure legend A robotic balance simulator was used to test whether cortical responses to balance perturbations are contingent on active balance control or instead reflect the detection of unexpected motion. Participants experienced identical support‐surface rotations (toes‐up and toes‐down) while actively controlling balance or while being ...

ABSTRACT Purpose To directly quantify respiration‐driven cerebrovascular resistance dynamics (CRD) using a gas‐free MRI framework based on the internal‐to‐external artery carotid flow ratio (ratio_Q). Theory and Methods Two independent datasets (n = 10 and n = 17) were used to evaluate repeatability and to compare breathing conditions.

Governing by Ambiguity: Sociotechnical Imaginaries of Platforms in China
ABSTRACT Besides clear policy directives, the unresolved and open‐ended elements in policy communication also create discursive politics. This article argues that ambiguity in policy communication reflects the state's exercise of power within a fractured sociocultural landscape.

Homo luzonensis and the role of homoplasy in the morphology of hominin insular species
Abstract Homo luzonensis lived during the upper Pleistocene in the northern Philippines, east of the Wallace line. The few specimens attributed to this species show a mosaic of plesiomorphies for the genus Homo and apomorphies found in upper Pleistocene Homo species.
