Strong and weak random walks on signed networks by Babul, SA, Tian, Y, Lambiotte, R

“…Comparing strong and weak walks on synthetic and empirical networks, we demonstrate that weak walks outperform strong walks in scenarios involving more than two communities or asymmetric link densities. Our findings suggest that replacing strong walks with weak walks could enhance other signed network random-walk algorithms, broadening their applicability to more realistic network structures.…”

The effects of fasting on acute ischemic infarcts in the rat by Schneider, AM, Buchan, AM, Couch, Y

“…After 24 hours, fasting was found to reduce infarct volume and BBB breakdown, and lower both circulating and brain neutrophils. These findings suggest that fasting may be a beneficial non-pharmacological additive therapeutic option for cerebral ischemia, potentially by reducing inflammation in the acute stage of the disease.…”

The effects of fear appeal message repetition on perceived threat, perceived efficacy, and behavioral intention in the extended parallel process model by Shi, Jingyuan (Jolie), Smith, Sandi W.

“…However, after the second exposure the proportions of both systematic and all message-related thoughts (relative to total thoughts) significantly decreased while the proportion of heuristic thoughts significantly increased, and this pattern held after the third exposure. The findings demonstrated that the predictions in the EPPM are likely to be operative after three exposures to a persuasive message.…”

Carbene-catalyzed enantioselective oxidative coupling of enals and di(hetero)arylmethanes by Chen, Qiao, Zhu, Tingshun, Majhi, Pankaj Kumar, Mou, Chengli, Chai, Huifang, Zhang, Jingjie, Zhuo, Shitian, Chi, Robin Yonggui

“…To date, it remains challenging to functionalize the diaryl methyl sp3 carbon–hydrogen bond directly in an enantioselective manner. This is likely due to the relatively inert nature of the carbon–hydrogen bond and the difficult enantiofacial discrimination of two sterically similar aryl substituents. …”
