Proactive and Reactive Response Inhibition across the Lifespan. by Peter Smittenaar, Robb B Rutledge, Peter Zeidman, Rick A Adams, Harriet Brown, Glyn Lewis, Raymond J Dolan

“…Both forms of control rely on overlapping frontostriatal pathways known to deteriorate in healthy aging, an age-related decline that occurs at an accelerated rate in men compared to women. Here we ask whether these patterns of age-related decline are reflected in similar changes in proactive and reactive inhibitory control across the lifespan. …”

Role of arrowworm Sagitta elegans (Chaetognatha) in plankton communities of the western Bering Sea by E. P. Dulepova

“…The arrowworm production decreased in these warm years but production of non-predatory species (basically small- and medium-sized copepods) increased sharply because of their rapid response to temperature changes realized in high growth rate under higher temperature. Thus, the role of S. elegans in formation of the community production becomes lower in conditions favorable for high growth rate of non-predatory species.…”

Sex‐specific changes in vital signs and common blood tests on the day of influenza diagnosis by Kurt C. Showmaker, Brigitte E. Martin

“…While influenza is primarily a localized respiratory infection, previous studies showed significant changes in pulse rate and temperature on the day of diagnosis. This study expands these findings to further identify diagnostic patterns by analyzing standard blood panels, including complete blood count, metabolic panels, coagulation panels, and C‐reactive protein. …”

MATHEMATICAL-CARTOGRAPHIC MODELING AND CARTOGRAPHY OP DEMOGRAPHIC SITUATION IN THE REGIONS OF EUROPE AND RUSSIA by A. I. Igonin, V. S. Tikunov

“…The multivariate typology gave heterogeneous results, which makes it possible to assess a wide range of territorial features of the demographic characteristics of the population and identify patterns of their distribution. So, for the typology of the second option, instead of the indicator of life expectancy, the general mortality rate was used, which strengthens the significance of this development for the analysis of the demographic movement of the population and gives a clearer idea of the causes and genesis of the dynamics of the demographic situation. …”

Direct Pore‐Scale Numerical Simulation of Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation by Mohammad Amin Razbani, Espen Jettestuen, Anja Røyne

“…We also explored effects of biomass density and biomass distribution on the reactive transport factors, as well as the effect of the urea to calcium ratio on the resulting crystallization patterns. We found that a higher ratio of rate of ureolysis to rate of precipitation leads to more nucleation sites and more uniform calcite precipitation in the geometry.…”
