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

open access: yesAgribusiness, 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.

Assessing the Impact of Promotions on Consumer Purchasing Behavior During Crises

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how households modify their food expenditure decisions during times of crisis is essential because consumer purchasing behavior frequently changes during these times. This study looks at these behavioral shifts during the COVID‐19 pandemic, concentrating on how price sensitivity and response to sales promotions changed over the ...

Multi‐Property Machine Learning Models to Accelerate the Transition Toward Bio‐Based Emulsion Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A machine learning framework simultaneously predicts four critical properties of monomers for emulsion polymerization: propagation rate constant, reactivity ratios, glass transition temperature, and water solubility. These tools can be used to systematically identify viable bio‐based monomer pairs as replacements for conventional formulations, with ...

A Population‐Based Assessment of Cancer Risk in Children With VACTERL

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer risk in children with VACTERL, a nonrandom co‐occurrence of ≥ 3 defects (vertebral, anal, cardiac, tracheoesophogeal fistula, renal, and limb), remains unclear. We evaluated this association in a population‐based study. We analyzed data from the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Study, a US registry linkage ...

The Voice of Cantú: Lower Voice Pitch Is a New Phenotypic Feature of Cantú Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cantú syndrome (CS) is a rare genetic condition caused by pathogenic variants in either ABCC9 or KCNJ8, leading to gain‐of‐function of KATP‐channels. The main clinical features are hypertrichosis and cardiovascular abnormalities. This study investigates the voice characteristics in individuals with CS, an aspect that has received little ...

Optimization and verification of high‐fat diet formulation for establishing a rat model of obesity‐related precocious puberty

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We identified 45% HFD as the optimal formulation to establish a juvenile rat model of obesity‐related precocious puberty. It elicits robust phenotypic (early vaginal opening, obesity), histological (advanced ovarian development), and endocrine (elevated HPG axis hormones) alterations, with leptin‐mediated GnRH secretion as a core mechanistic driver ...

Methylophiopogonanone a attenuates pulmonary fibrosis by inhibiting SPP1‐mediated macrophage polarization via the PI3K/Akt pathway

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Transcriptome sequencing identified secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1) as a crucial target through which methylophiopogonanone A (MOA) ameliorates pulmonary fibrosis. Molecular docking and microscale thermophoresis (MST) assays confirmed a favorable binding affinity between MOA and SPP1.

Tailoring Electronic Properties of Precision Graphene Nanoribbons via Nanopore Engineering

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Novel porous graphene nanoribbons incorporating [18]annulene nanopores, together with a nonporous GNR of identical width, have been synthesized. Spectroscopic and theoretical analyses reveal that nanopore incorporation effectively tunes their electronic properties by enlarging the bandgap, reducing charge‐carrier mobility, and modulating exciton ...
