People often feel less empathy towards outgroup compared to ingroup targets. Overcoming this intergroup empathy bias is important for fostering positive intergroup relations. In five pre-registered and high-powered online studies (n = 4776 (745/745/1056/1236/994)), we attempted to replicate and generalize motivated empathy interventions that previously have made people more empathetic and prosociaPeople often feel less empathy towards outgroup compared to ingroup targets.

In this study, we investigated overbank sediments of the first terrace of Sava river in Šabac, exposed at a residential building construction site. Sediment characteristics such as grain size, magnetic susceptibility, chemical composition, and loss on ignition (LOI) at 550 °C and 950 °C were determined at 5 cm resolution, accompanied by visual inspection to assess color, pedogenic structure, and o

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 10-20% of primary breast cancers and often has early relapses and aggressive progression. An activated tumour immune response can be prognostic in treatment-naive and chemotherapy-treated TNBC patients and may be assessed using gene expression data. We derived a stand-alone predictor for a proposed immunomodulatory transcriptional TNBC subtype in a

Biomarkers for evaluating response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in ER+/HER2- breast cancer remain limited. This study explores the impact of NACT on tumor proliferation dynamics and its association with relapse-free interval (RFI) among 175 patients with early ER+/HER2- breast tumors. Proliferation was assessed at baseline, after completing two NACT cycles, and in the residual tumor using Ki

This article uses empirical investigation of regional hydrogen investments and strategies in Northern Europe to develop a new conceptual approach to regional industrial path development which foregrounds politics and power as explanatory factors in understanding the logics, processes and outcomes of path development. This conceptualisation departs from Evolutionary Economic Geography approaches to

Introduction: Two large multicentre European hospital networks have estimated vaccine effectiveness (VE) against COVID-19 since 2021. Aim: We aimed to measure VE against PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 in hospitalised severe acute respiratory illness (SARI) patients≥20 years, combining data from these networks during Alpha (March–June)- and Delta (June–December)dominant periods, 2021. Methods: Forty-six

Stingless bees (Meliponini) are important pollinators in tropical ecosystems and very abundant in the Bolivian Yungas region; yet little is known about their foraging behavior and floral preferences. In this study, we combined melissopalynology, pollen analysis from honey, with plant-pollinator interactions network to investigate foraging behavior and niche overlap of three rescued stingless bee s

Constans (CO), one of the key transcription factors of the zinc finger family, plays a crucial role in the photoperiodism-dependant flowering pathway. A systematic structural and functional analysis of the CO gene homologs need to be conducted in mango cultivars with contrasting bearing behaviors: ‘Amrapali’ (regular) and ‘Chausa’ (irregular). RNA-Seq leaf transcriptomes were mined for CO homologs

Antibiotics are crucial in treating infectious diseases, particularly in intensive care unit patients, but they can lead to side effects such as ototoxicity. A mechanism for this is antibiotics targeting mitochondrial components in eucaryotic cells, due to their resemblance of those in bacteria. Here we investigate how five classes of antibiotics (carbapenems, fluoroquinolones, aminoglycosides, gl

Anticipation entails contemplating the beneficial and harmful impacts of scientific and technological progress. Anticipation has a long history in science, technology, and innovation policy partly due to future impacts of scientific progress being inescapable. The link between anticipation, an undertheorized concept, and human rights law is yet to be fully explored. This paper links anticipation t

In an article in this journal, Katherine Drabiak argues that green lighting genome editing of human embryos is contrary to "fundamental human rights law." According to the author, genome editing of human embryos violates what we should recognize as a fundamental human right to inherit a genome without deliberate manipulation. In this reply article, we assess Drabiak's legal analysis and show metho
