Research Progress on Alleviating Inflammatory Responses by Regulating Macrophage Polarization Using Medicinal and Edible Homologous Traditional Chinese Medicines

open access: yesPhytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
This review summarizes that medicinal and edible homologous TCMs—such as Mongolian milkvetch root, common turmeric rhizome, and Angelica—alleviate chronic inflammatory diseases (IBD, RA, and AS) by inhibiting M1 and promoting M2 macrophage polarization, providing a theoretical basis for inflammation therapy and daily dietary intervention.

Uniform payoff security and Nash equilibrium in metric games [PDF]

open access: yes
We introduce a condition, uniform payoff security, for games with separable metric strategy spaces and payoffs bounded and measurable in players' strategies. We show that if any such metric game G is uniformly payoff secure, then its mixed extension G is

α-Rank: Multi-Agent Evaluation by Evolution

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
We introduce α-Rank, a principled evolutionary dynamics methodology, for the evaluation and ranking of agents in large-scale multi-agent interactions, grounded in a novel dynamical game-theoretic solution concept called Markov-Conley chains (MCCs).

Biases and Uncertainties in Radiosonde‐Based Precipitable Water Vapor

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Precipitable water vapor (PWV) plays an important role in weather and climate phenomena. Accurate PWV measurements based on radiosonde observations are essential for assessing remote‐sensing measurements and long‐term trends. This study examines the performance of PWV algorithms, including their intrinsic biases and their sensitivity to ...

The Worst-Case Interference in DSL Systems Employing Dynamic Spectrum Management

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2006
Dynamic spectrum management (DSM) has been proposed to achieve next-generation rates on digital subscriber lines (DSL). Because the copper twisted-pair plant is an interference-constrained environment, the multiuser performance and spectral ...

Bane or Boon: The Effects of Daigou (Buying on Behalf) in an Open Economy*

open access: yesEconomic Record, Volume 102, Issue 338, Page 397-431, September 2026.
Prompted by advancements in technology, particularly affordable or complimentary livestream features on mobile applications, a novel form of international trade—termed ‘daigou’—has emerged. In this practice, individual agents in developed countries (the North) purchase domestically produced goods on behalf of customers in developing countries (the ...

The Incidence of Coarse Certification: Evidence From the ENERGY STAR Program

open access: yesThe RAND Journal of Economics, Volume 57, Issue 3, Page 545-585, Autumn (Fall) 2026.
ABSTRACT A coarse certification provides simple but incomplete information. Its rationale is to help consumers trade off dimensions of quality that are complex and lack salience. In imperfectly competitive markets, it may induce excess bunching at the certification requirement, crowd out quality, and facilitate price discrimination. Who will ultimately

On Large Games with a Bio-Social Typology [PDF]

open access: yes
We present a comprehensive theory of large non-anonymous games in which agents have a name and a determinate social-type and/or biological trait to resolve the dissonance of a (matching-pennies type) game with an exact pure-strategy Nash equilibrium with

RPM and Vertical Integration With Upstream Competition and Noncontractible Efforts

open access: yesThe Journal of Industrial Economics, Volume 74, Issue 3, Page 349-366, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We study RPM and vertical integration in a common agency setting with two differentiated manufacturers and one retailer, where consumer demand depends on both the manufacturers' and retailer's noncontractible efforts. Under vertical separation, the adoption of maximum RPM by both manufacturers is an equilibrium and intensifies competition ...

Some First Results for Noncooperative Pregames : Social Conformity and Equilibrium in Pure Strategies. [PDF]

open access: yes
We introduce the framework of noncooperative pregames and demonstrate that for all games with sufficiently many players, there exists approximate (E) Nash equilibria in pure strategies. Moreover, an equilibrium can be selected with the property that most
