Neighborhood Variation in Rate of Revascularization among Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients in New York City by Abdissa Negassa, Jing Fang

“…To identify modifiable neighborhood factors and quantify their effect on the rate of revascularization among acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. Method. Using the New York City hospital discharge records during 1998–2002, we employed a hierarchical regression model that integrates patient-level risk factors and neighborhood-level factors to retrospectively examine revascularization patterns among AMI patients. …”

Multi-omics joint analysis reveals the mechanism of flower color and fragrance variation in Lilium cernuum by Shaopeng Chen, Zhiqun Chen, Qianqian Zhuang, Hewen Chen

“…While its white variant (L. cernuum var. album) exhibits distinct flower color and fragrance traits, the molecular mechanisms underlying these variations remain poorly understood. Previous studies attributed the low anthocyanin content in the white variant to LcMYB12 downregulation, yet comprehensive analyses of associated genes and metabolic pathways are lacking.MethodsThis study employed integrated transcriptomics, metabolomics, and volatile metabolomics to systematically compare L. cernuum and its white variant. …”

Development and correctness analysis of the mathematical model of transport and suspension sedimentation depending on bottom relief variation by A. I. Sukhinov, V. V. Sidoryakina

“…The work objective was to conduct an analytical study of the correctness of the initial-boundary value problem corresponding to the constructed model.Materials and Methods. The change in the bottom relief aids in solution to the initial-boundary value problem for a parabolic equation with the lowest derivatives in a domain whose geometry depends on the desired function of the solution, which in general leads to a nonlinear formulation of the problem. …”

Understanding variation in unplanned admissions of people aged 85 and over: a systems-based approach by Andrew Wilson, Richard Baker, John Bankart, Ran Bhamra, Stoyan Kurtev, Kay Phelps, Emma Regen, Stephen Rogers, Justin Waring

“…Aim To examine system characteristics associated with variations in unplanned admission rates in those aged 85+.Design Mixed methods.Setting Primary care trusts in England were ranked according to changes in admission rates for people aged 85+ between 2007 and 2009, and study sites selected from each end of the distribution: three ‘improving’ sites where rates had declined by more than 4% and three ‘deteriorating’ sites where rates had increased by more than 20%. …”

Intraspecific morphological variation and environmental drivers in Macleania rupestris: a model-based population classification by Denisse F. Peña, Paulina Villena, Diana Curillo, Carlos A. Jiménez, Eduardo Ordoñez, Oswaldo Jadán

“…IntroductionMacleania rupestris, an ecologically and culturally important species of the Ericaceae family, inhabits the montane forests of southern Ecuador and exhibits significant but understudied intraspecific morphological variation. Understanding this variation and its environmental drivers is crucial for effective conservation and restoration planning, particularly in a changing climate.MethodsWe analyzed 15 quantitative traits in 200 individuals from four populations located in the Azuay and Cañar provinces to identify morphological groups and assess their environmental drivers. …”
