The status‐legitimacy hypothesis proposes that those who are most disadvantaged by unequal social systems are even more likely than members of more advantaged groups to provide ideological support for the very social system that is responsible for their disadvantages. Li, Yang, Wu, and Kou (2020, Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin ) sought to expand the generalizability of this hypothesis by testing it in China, addressing inconsistencies surrounding the empirical support for this hypothesis by postulating that the construct of status should be separated into an objective and subjectiv

This study presents a novel approach for classifying Discomycetes species using deep learning and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) techniques. The EfficientNet-B0 model achieved the highest performance, reaching 97% accuracy, a 97% F1-score, and a 99% AUC, making it the most effective model. MobileNetV3-L followed closely, with 96% accuracy, a 96% F1-score, and a 99% AUC, while ShuffleNet also showed strong results, reaching 95% accuracy and a 95% F1-score. In contrast, the EfficientNet-B4 model exhibited lower performance, achieving 89% accuracy, an 89% F1-score, and a 93% AUC. These

ABSTRACT We present a ‘Little Red Dot’ (LRD) broad-line active galactic nucleus (AGN) at $z=5.077 $, observed with NIRSpec/MSA (micro-shutter assembly) and NIRSpec/IFU (integral-field unit) by the JADES (JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey) and BlackTHUNDER (Black holes in THe early Universe aNd their DensE surRoundings) surveys. Combining spatially resolved and high-resolution spectroscopy, we characterize its central engine, host, and environment. H$\alpha $ has multiple components, including two broad Gaussians, yielding a black-hole mass $\log (M_{\bullet }/{\rm M}_\odot) = 7.65 $, whi

In this study, a comprehensive mathematical method for modeling the operational reliability of mine hoisting equipment under conditions of incomplete and heavily censored data is developed. The analyzed dataset includes 259 observations collected over a five-year period for six critical components, with the overall level of censoring reaching 62% and exceeding 70% for long life mechanical subsystems. Considering right, left, and interval censoring, the paper proposes a unified statistical procedure that combines empirical estimation of failure rates with parametric identification using Weibull

Dengue is the most common arboviral infection, causing substantial morbidity and mortality globally. The licensing of Qdenga, a second-generation vaccine developed by Takeda Pharmaceuticals, is therefore timely, but the potential public health impact of vaccination across transmission settings needs to be evaluated. To address this, we characterized Qdenga's efficacy profile using mathematical models calibrated to published clinical trial data and estimated the public health impact of routine vaccine use. We find that efficacy against both virologically confirmed dengue and hospitalization dep

Detecting stress is important for improving human health and potential, because moderate levels of stress may motivate people towards better performance at cognitive tasks, while chronic stress exposure causes impaired performance and health risks. We propose a Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) system to detect stress in the context of high-pressure work environments. The BCI system includes an electroencephalogram (EEG) headband with dry electrodes and an electrocardiogram (ECG) chest belt. We collected EEG and ECG data from 40 participants during two stressful cognitive tasks: the Cognitive Vig

The proposal of the gut-lung axis has profoundly reshaped our understanding of the mechanisms underlying respiratory diseases. As a crucial component of this axis, the gut microbiota plays a central role in pulmonary immune regulation through inter-organ communication mediated by metabolic products. However, a systematic integration of mechanisms explaining how gut microbes achieve precise cross-organ immune regulation remains elusive. Existing research predominantly focuses on descriptive observations, such as the association between early-life microbiota dysbiosis and an increased risk of as

The dynamic interplay between neoplastic cells and the host has been increasingly recognized as important players in the pathogenesis of cancer cachexia, a syndrome affecting ~50-80% of cancer patients with various incidences of different types of malignancies. Despite its prevalence, a comprehensive understanding of cancer cachexia progression, with a holistic view at the cross-organismal, cellular and molecular levels, remains elusive. In this review, we undertake an in-depth exploration of the relevant target organs and their regulatory roles in cancer cachexia, with a particular focus on m

Abstract Machine learning weather models trained on observed atmospheric conditions can outperform conventional physics-based models at short- to medium-range (1–14 day) forecast timescales. Here we take the machine learning model ACE2, trained to predict 6-hourly steps in atmospheric evolution and which can remain stable over long forecast periods, and assess it from a seasonal forecasting perspective (1–3 month lead time). Applying persisted sea surface temperature (SST) and sea-ice anomalies centred on 1 st November each year, we initialise a lagged ensemble of seasonal predictions covering

We perform a search for binary black hole mergers with one sub-solar mass (SSM) black hole and a primary component above $\sim 2 M_\odot$ in data from the second observing run (O2) of the LIGO-Virgo detectors. Our analysis extends the parameter space explored by previous LIGO-Virgo Collaboration searches for binaries containing SSM components into a region of parameter space motivated by broad mass distributions of primordial black holes (PBHs) exhibiting a peak around $[2-3] M^{}_\odot$, which can arise from the reduction of the equation of state during the QCD phase transition in the early U

Many studies have shed light on the positive side of relatedness, but little attention has yet been devoted to possible downsides of relatedness for firm performance in regions. We found in a case study of the oil-dependent Stavanger region in Norway that plants in industries that are skill-related to the dominant oil and gas industry showed lower employment growth than plants in other industries. This was the case both in the boom and the crisis periods, even when controlling for supply linkages to the oil and gas sector. However, we also found that plants skill-related to the oil and gas ind
