When Nature Talks, Markets Move: Forecasting the Equity Premium With Eco‐Climate Incidents

Financial Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the role of eco‐climate information, particularly biodiversity risks, in forecasting the U.S. equity premium. Using RepRisk controversy data, we construct indicators for biodiversity, greenhouse gas emissions, and local pollution. Biodiversity indicators emerge as strong predictors of the equity premium, outperforming other

Identifying Hydrological Drivers of Surface Water Extent in Endorheic and Exorheic Basins over the Mu Us Sandy Land

Remote Sensing
Surface water extent (SWE) is a key indicator of the regional water balance in dryland environments. However, the hydrological processes regulating SWE responses remain poorly constrained.

Advancing Nurse Mentors' Development Through a Mentoring Intervention: A Mixed Methods Study

Journal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mentoring in nursing is crucial for supporting newly qualified nurses, enhancing retention and promoting professional development. Despite its significance, limited research has explored nurse mentors' perspectives and their own development through mentoring.

An investigation of the functional significance of the pyramidalis muscle using shear wave elastography

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pyramidalis (Py) is a small triangular‐shaped anterior abdominal wall muscle, the function of which remains uncertain. We used shear wave elastography to test the hypothesis that Py contributes to stiffness of the linea alba. Our results indicate that Py contraction results in a significant increase in LA stiffness, supporting the previously ...

Real-time shear wave elastography in measuring normal ileocolon intestinal wall stiffness using colonoscopy as reference: A single-center research

European Journal of Radiology Open
Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of real-time shear wave elastography (SWE) in evaluating intestinal wall stiffness, and to establish the threshold SWE value of normal intestinal wall and explore the influencing factors of intestinal SWE.

Tooth Loss and Edentulism Are Associated With Poorer Quality of Life: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analyses

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Tooth loss compromising functional dentition doubles the odds of poor oral health‐related quality of life (OR 2.08), while complete tooth loss nearly quadruples them (OR 3.99). These findings from a systematic review of population‐based studies underscore tooth preservation as a critical public health priority.

Comparative diagnostic efficacy of two-dimensional shear wave and transient elastography in predicting the risk of esophagogastric varices and histological staging in patients with primary biliary cholangitis

BMC Gastroenterology
Background This study aimed to compare the diagnostic efficacy of Two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) with that of transient elastography (TE) in predicting the risk of esophagogastric varices and histological staging in patients with ...

Education and the Shadow Economy: A Panel Cointegration Analysis

Kyklos, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of education on the shadow economy across 132 countries over the period 1991–2020. To this end, panel cointegration and panel error‐correction models are employed. The results of the panel cointegration tests indicate a stable long‐term relationship among the selected variables.

Vocabulary and Processing Speed Explain Reading and Writing Disparities Between Linguistic Groups in Higher Education

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Selective admissions at universities in the United Kingdom aim to ensure a baseline language competence, yet, despite persistent achievement disparities across linguistic backgrounds, systematic comparisons of linguistic skills underpinning academic success remain rare.
