On the Relationship Between Oceanic Plate Speed, Tectonic Stress, and Seismic Anisotropy by E. Kendall, M. Faccenda, A. M. G. Ferreira, S.‐J. Chang

“…We apply the SGLOBE‐rani tomographic filter, resulting in a flat depth‐age trend and stronger anisotropy beneath faster plates, which correlates well with 3D global anisotropic mantle models. Our predictions and observations suggest that as plate speed increases from 2 to 8 cm/yr, radial anisotropy increases by ∼0.01–0.025 in the upper 100–200 km of the mantle between 10 and 60 Ma.…”

Photoelasticity as a Tool for Stress Analysis of Re-Entrant Auxetic Structures by Barbara Schürger, Miroslav Pástor, Peter Frankovský, Pavol Lengvarský

“…Experimental measurements, conducted using an optically sensitive material (PSM-1), were found to align closely with FEM predictions, with deviations within 5%. This agreement highlights the accuracy of both methods, though discrepancies were noted in areas with lower stress levels due to fringe order reading precision. …”

Salinity Stress Induces Phase Separation of Plant BARENTSZ to Form Condensates by Peigang Li, Lanfeng Wu, Wenchao He, Shanshan Zhang, Chaoying He

“…OsBTZs may recruit proteins that play roles in the salt tolerance response to form cytoplasmic condensates, which act as stress granules. The predicted prion-like domain (PrLD), that originated ancestrally and is functionally conserved, was demonstrated to be key to the PS of OsBTZs upon NaCl treatment. …”

Changing intra‐ and interspecific interactions across sedimentary and environmental stress gradients by Emily J. Douglas, Judi Hewitt, Andrew M. Lohrer, Fabrice Stephenson

“…We use a large dataset spanning 29 estuaries and 0%–87% mud content to predict the effects of increases in mud. We observed important changes in feedback loops between Austrovenus recent recruits, older individuals, and sediment shell content, and between Macomona and chlorophyll with increasing stress (mud). …”

Quantifying Mental Stress Using Cardiovascular Responses: A Scoping Review by Samira Ziyadidegan, Neda Sadeghi, Moein Razavi, Elaheh Baharlouei, Vahid Janfaza, Saber Kazeminasab, Homa Pesarakli, Amir Hossein Javid, Farzan Sasangohar

“…(1) Background: Physiological responses, such as heart rate and heart rate variability, have been increasingly utilized to monitor, detect, and predict mental stress. This review summarizes and synthesizes previous studies which analyzed the impact of mental stress on heart activity as well as mathematical, statistical, and visualization methods employed in such analyses. (2) Methods: A total of 119 articles were reviewed following the Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. …”

RECURRENT DEPRESSIVE DISORDER,TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUSAND OXIDATIVE STRESS by P. Marinov, Y. Petkov

“…Damage to cellular components brought on by an excess of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generates pro-inflammatory molecules such as 4-hydroxynonenal, neoepitopes, and damage-associated molecular patterns, which in turn trigger the immune system and ultimately result in cell death. In MDD, oxidative stress-induced reductions in NO-dependent dilatation and alterations in vascular smooth muscle function are directly associated with microvascular dysfunction.…”
