Why we age

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 911-925, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Three categories of explanations exist for why we age: mechanistic theories, which omit reference to evolutionary forces; weakening force of selection theories, which posit that barriers exist that prevent evolutionary forces from optimising fitness in ageing; and optimisation theories, which posit that evolutionary forces actually select for ...

A Fuzzy Framework for Realized Volatility Prediction: Empirical Evidence From Equity Markets

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, Volume 45, Issue 3, Page 1261-1291, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study introduces a realized volatility fuzzy time series (RV‐FTS) model that applies a fuzzy c‐means clustering algorithm to estimate time‐varying c latent volatility states and their corresponding membership degrees. These memberships are used to construct a fuzzified volatility estimate as a weighted average of cluster centroids.

Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping in Skull Base Chordoma: In Silico Analysis and In Vivo Application Towards Indirect Hypoxia Assessment

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 4, Page 2092-2105, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) beyond the brain through realistic simulations and to explore preliminary evidence that may be indicative of hypoxia in skull base chordomas (SBC). Methods Each step of the QSM pipeline was optimized within an in silico framework consisting of (i) phase unwrapping, (ii) background ...

Developing and Validating an Instrument for Assessing Secondary Students' Self‐Efficacy for Online Reading

open access: yesReading Research Quarterly, Volume 61, Issue 2, April/May/June 2026.
This study introduces and validates the Self‐Efficacy for Online Reading Questionnaire (SEORQ), a process‐grounded instrument designed to measure secondary students' efficacy in executing the core demands of online reading. The model conceptualizes online reading self‐efficacy as a multidimensional construct encompassing five interrelated processes ...

Groundwater Contributions to Daily Nitrogen and Phosphorus Loads and Implications for Prediction in Watersheds in South Korea

open access: yesJAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding watershed water quality dynamics is essential for sustainable management, yet accurate nutrient load prediction remains challenging under strong inter‐annual variability. To address this limitation, this study presents a hybrid modelling framework that integrates baseflow information into a machine‐learning structure to improve ...
