American politics is becoming increasingly polarized, which biases decision-making and reduces open-minded debate.In two experiments, we demonstrate that despite this polarization, a simple manipulation can make people express and endorse less polarized views about competing political candidates.In Study 1, we approached 136 participants at the fir
Development and Application of a Thermal Comfort Model in Buildings
Buildings are one of the systems that more energy consumed in the European Union.The study of the thermal envelope is interesting in order to reduce the energy losses.For that, a mathematical model able to predict the system response to external temperature variations is developed.With the mathematical model, different thermal envelope elements of
The Structural Basis of Functional Improvement in Response to Human Umbilical Cord Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Hearts with Postinfarct LV Remodeling
Cellular therapy for myocardial repair has been one of the most intensely investigated interventional strategies for acute myocardial infarction.Although the therapeutic potential of stem cells has been demonstrated in various studies, the underlying mechanisms for such improvements are poorly understood.In the present study, we investigated the lo
Evaluation of Rust code verbosity, understandability and complexity
Rust is an innovative programming language initially implemented by Mozilla, developed to ensure high performance, reliability, and productivity.The final purpose of this study consists of applying a set of common static software metrics to programs written in Rust to assess Lights the verbosity, understandability, organization, complexity, and mai
Patient Characteristics and Perspectives of Firearm Safety Discussions in the Emergency Department
Introduction: Firearm injury prevention discussions with emergency department (ED) patients provide a unique opportunity to prevent death and injury in high-risk patient groups.Building mutual understanding of safe firearm practices between patients and providers will aid the development of effective interventions.Examining ED patient baseline char
