Behavioral Biases in Investor Decision-Making: A Comparative Meta-Analysis of Behavioral Finance Research by Seyed Amir Sabet, Saeed Aibaghi esfahani, Abdolmajid Abdolbaghi Ataabadi

“…The study's key contributions include establishing a unified framework for assessing bias impacts across markets, maintaining methodological rigor through adaptive modeling approaches, and enabling cross-market comparisons that distinguish universal versus context-specific effects, while the findings consolidate fragmented behavioral finance research to offer investors and policymakers actionable insights for mitigating bias-driven risks, ultimately quantifying how cognitive and emotional biases shape investment behavior across different environments to provide robust, generalizable conclusions for improving financial decision-making. …”

Effect of virulent and vaccine variants of influenza virus on the immunophenotype of dendritic cells generated from murine bone marrow by N. K. Akhmatova, A. A. Rtishchev, S. G. Markushin, A. M. Kostinova, E. A. Akhmatova, V. N. Stolpnikova, E. O. Kalinichenko, I. Zh. Shubina, I. A. Bisheva

“…The in vitro cultured murine mononucleocytes derived from bone marrow can produce a large number of n-DCs, that can mature in the presence of different variants.During evolution of the DC immunophenotype treated with variant influenza viruses, we have found distinct signs of immunosuppression.The attenuated U-2 and M-26 influenza variants obtained by site-specific mutagenesis upon development of DCs immunophenotype, exhibited a decreased immunosuppressive activity and were not inferior to the cold-adapted (CA) reassortant for the most positions, but exceeded it in some instances. …”
