Effect of Two Geologically Distinct Amazonian Rivers in Shaping Forest Understorey Bird Assemblages

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim The effects of rivers as barriers for species dispersal can be expected to vary according to both species traits and the characteristics of rivers themselves. In this context, our aim was to investigate dissimilarities in species composition across opposite banks of two major Amazonian rivers, the Juruá and the Tapajós, and relate them to ...

The mysterious middlemen making your vision pop: understanding the function of amacrine cells

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 603, Issue 21, Page 6473-6502, November 1, 2025.
Abstract figure legend This review aims to illustrate the diversity and function of amacrine cells in the retina. The diversity of amacrine cell subtypes is depicted based on morphology, stratification and neurotransmitter expression, along with their synaptic connectivity with bipolar and ganglion cells, emphasizing inhibitory and modulatory roles ...

Quantifying the Influence of Poly(Ethylene glycol) on the Micelle Formation of Nonionic Detergents

open access: yesChemPlusChem, Volume 90, Issue 10, October 9, 2025.
The influence of poly(ethylene glycols) (PEG) with different molecular weights on the critical micelle concentration of nonionic detergents is quantified based on fluorescence spectra of 8‐anilinonaphthalene‐1‐sulfonate (ANS) and found to depend on the concentration of oxyethylene (OE) units rather than polymer length.

Post‐Traumatic Growth in Adult Cancer Survivors: A Scoping Review of Psychological Factors, Predictors, and Interventions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Psychology, Volume 60, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Post‐traumatic growth (PTG), defined as positive psychological changes following trauma, has garnered attention in recent years within the context of cancer. This scoping review aims to synthesise and map PTG‐related studies published in the last 5 years among adult cancer populations.

Beyond David Graeber: How state intervention creates ‘bullshit jobs’

open access: yesEconomic Affairs, Volume 45, Issue 3, Page 395-416, October 2025.
Abstract David Graeber describes the malaise of ‘bullshit jobs’ but misattributes their cause to capitalism. I offer a different account: a bullshit job is usually one that would not survive without regulation, subsidy, or legal privilege. Such roles proliferate through state‐driven mechanisms: (1) regulatory inflation that converts productive effort ...

A Grid Theorem for Strong Immersions of Walls

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 110, Issue 1, Page 23-32, September 2025.
ABSTRACT We show that a graph contains a large wall as a strong immersion minor if and only if the graph does not admit a tree‐cut decomposition of small “width”, which is measured in terms of its adhesion and the path‐likeness of its torsos.

Recent Progress in Gene Delivery Systems Based on Gemini‐Surfactant

open access: yesMedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2025.
Gene delivery is a key area in biomedicine, where nucleic acids are delivered into cells to treat diseases by modulating genes. The low micelle concentration, effective nucleic acid complexation, and low immunogenicity make Gemini surfactants promising gene delivery vectors.

The impact of credit constraints and risk tolerance on self‐employment: Accounting for the hidden majority

open access: yesInternational Review of Finance, Volume 25, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Small businesses are important drivers of economic activity and job creation but face significant credit constraints. This study examines the joint impact of credit constraints and risk tolerance on a household's decision to become self‐employed using data from the 2022 Survey of Consumer Finance (SCF), and in a novel way.

Anchored in Sole Ingredient Concentration: Numerical Values and Consumer Perceptions of Healthfulness and Quality

open access: yesJournal of Consumer Behaviour, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 1787-1806, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Numerical values often serve as anchors in consumer evaluations, potentially shaping perceptions even in the absence of objective reference points. This research introduces the Concentrated Effect, which posits that numerical values indicating the amount of a sole ingredient in a food product can enhance perceptions of ingredient concentration.
