An audio-visual investigation of linguistic stress perception [PDF]
The true acoustic correlate for linguistic stress has not yet been found. While it was originally thought that listeners base stress judgments on syllable intensity, it has been shown that intensity, fundamental frequency, duration, and spectral structure can all act as effective information for stress perception [D. Isenberg and T. Gay, J. Acoust. Soc.

This study identifies Pirin (PIR), an iron‐binding protein, as a critical ferroptosis suppressor in colorectal cancer through lipid membrane remodeling. PIR, induced by NRF2 during ferroptotic stress, transcriptionally regulates PLA2G4A to shift cellular lipid composition away from ferroptosis‐permissive polyunsaturated phospholipids.
