Wealth inequality and epidemics in the Republic of Venice (1400–1800)
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract This article analyses wealth inequality in the Republic of Venice during 1400–1800. The availability of a large database of homogeneous inequality measurements allows us to produce the most in‐depth study of the factors affecting inequality at the local level available thus far for any preindustrial society.

Neuronal hyperexcitability: A key to unraveling hippocampal synaptic dysfunction in Lafora disease
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Objective Lafora disease (LD) is a rare progressive disorder caused by mutations in the EPM2A or EPM2B genes, characterized by the accumulation of Lafora bodies, drug‐resistant epilepsy, and cognitive decline. To investigate the early molecular mechanisms of LD, we studied electrophysiological changes in the dentate gyrus (DG ...

Performance of large-bore tapered-roller bearings under combined radial and thrust load at shaft speeds to 15,000 rpm [PDF]
The performance of 120.65-mm bore tapered roller bearings was investigated at shaft speeds up to 15,000 rpm. Temperature distribution and bearing heat generation were determined as a function of shaft speed, radial and thrust loads, lubricant flow rate ...
