The Ayeyarwady River (Myanmar) : washload transport and its global role among rivers in the Anthropocene by Latrubesse, Edgardo M., Park, Edward, Kästner, Karl

“…We show that the Ayeyarwady has likely become the river with the second or third largest delivery of washload to the sea in the world since it has so far been much less affected by damming compared to the vast majority of other rivers.…”

The devil is in the detail? Investors’ mispricing of proxy voting outcomes on M&A deals by Li, Lingwei, Zhang, Huai

“…Shareholders’ approval rates on M&A deals are informative because they are predictive of the acquirer's post-merger operating performance. Since the passing of the deal is salient information while the specific approval rate is not, investors may misprice the detailed voting outcome due to their limited attention. …”

Defects in β-cell Ca2+ dynamics in age-induced diabetes by Li, Luosheng, Trifunovic, Aleksandra, Köhler, Martin, Wang, Yixin, Petrovic Berglund, Jelena, Illies, Christopher, Juntti-Berggren, Lisa, Larsson, Nils-Göran, Berggren, Per-Olof

“…We show that these changes are likely to be accounted for by impaired mitochondrial function and to involve phospholipase C/inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate–mediated Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores as well as decreased β-cell Ca2+ influx over the plasma membrane. …”

Effect of glass fibre reinforced polymer composite material on structural performance of reinforced concrete beams through experimental observation and finite element modelling : A... by Solahuddin, Azuwa, Fadzil, Mat Yahaya

“…Previous experimental investigation and finite element analysis results showed that RCB constructed with GFRP significantly improved the flexure, stiffness, young modulus, load-deflection, ultimate load capacity, load-axial, fracture pattern, stress-strain distribution, and failure mechanism of RCB. Since this GFRP composite material has superior strength, force, load, corrosion resistance, adhesive, and anchoring properties, it can be used as an external reinforcement for RCB. …”

How Physical Proximity Shapes Complex Social Networks by Stopczynski, Arkadiusz, Pentland, Alex, Lehmann, Sune

“…We consider the network of short-range interactions defined as d ≲ ≲  1 meter, and the long-range which includes all interactions d ≲ ≲  10 meters. Since these two networks arise from the same set of underlying behavioral data, we are able to quantitatively measure how the specific definition of the proximity network – short-range versus long-range – impacts the resulting network structure as well as spreading dynamics in epidemic simulations. …”

Network Dynamics of a Financial Ecosystem by Somin, Shahar, Altshuler, Yaniv, Gordon, Goren, Pentland, Alex, Shmueli, Erez

“…Global financial crises have led to the understanding that classical econometric models are limited in comprehending financial markets in extreme conditions, partially since they disregarded complex interactions within the system. …”

The low overpotential regime of acidic water oxidation part II: trends in metal and oxygen stability numbers by Scott, Soren B., Sørensen, Jakob E., Rao, Reshma R., Moon, Choongman, Kibsgaard, Jakob, Shao-Horn, Yang, Chorkendorff, Ib

“…We emphasize the importance of quantitative analysis and point out that since less than 0.2% of evolved oxygen contains an oxygen atom originating from the catalyst itself, lattice oxygen evolution is at most a negligible contribution to overall OER activity for RuOx and IrOx in acidic electrolyte.…”

Frataxin deficiency promotes endothelial senescence in pulmonary hypertension

“…Cellular senescence is linked to PH with intracardiac shunts; however, its regulation across PH subtypes is unknown. Since endothelial deficiency of iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters is pathogenic in PH, we hypothesized that a Fe-S biogenesis protein, frataxin (FXN), controls endothelial senescence. …”

Motion Phantom Development for MRI by Liu, Kerlina

“…The development of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has enabled health care professionals to non-invasively visualize subjects' soft tissue for medical diagnosis. Since it's conception, artifacts due to patients' movement have shown themselves to be an issue and an assortment of tools and methods have been developed to help mitigate the effect of motion on MRI but such mitigation methods are generally only applicable on a case by case basis depending on the specific type of motion. …”
