Relevance theory for mapping cognitive biases in fact-checking: an argumentative approach.

In the fast-paced, densely populated information landscape shaped by digitization, distinguishing information from misinformation is critical. Fact-checkers are effective in fighting fake news but face challenges such as cognitive overload and time pressure, which increase susceptibility to cognitive biases. Establishing standards to mitigate these biases can improve the quality of fact-checks, bolster audience trust, and protect against reputation attacks from disinformation actors.

COVID-19 risk mitigation in reopening mass cultural events: population-based observational study for the UK Events Research Programme in Liverpool City Region.

Objectives: To understand severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission risks, perceived risks and the feasibility of risk mitigations from experimental mass cultural events before coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) restrictions were lifted.

Design: Prospective, population-wide observational study.

Setting: Four events (two nightclubs, an outdoor music festival and a business conference) open to Liverpool City Region UK residents, requiring a negative lateral flow test (LFT) within the 36 h before the event, but not requiring social distancing or face-coverings.

The GPER Agonist LNS8801 Induces Mitotic Arrest and Apoptosis in Uveal Melanoma Cells.

Unlabelled: Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults and has a high incidence of metastatic disease. Current treatments have shown limited clinical activity in patients with uveal melanoma with metastasis and there is an urgent need for new effective therapies. Recent findings have shown that women with uveal melanoma have better survival rates than men.

Protein biomarkers for response to XPO1 inhibition in haematologic malignancies.

XPO1 (Exportin-1) is the nuclear export protein responsible for the normal shuttling of several proteins and RNA species between the nucleocytoplasmic compartment of eukaryotic cells. XPO1 recognizes the nuclear export signal (NES) of its cargo proteins to facilitate its export. Alterations of nuclear export have been shown to play a role in oncogenesis in several types of solid tumour and haematologic cancers.

Human-computer interaction tools with gameful design for critical thinking the media ecosystem: a classification framework.

In response to the ever-increasing spread of online disinformation and misinformation, several human-computer interaction tools to enhance data literacy have been developed. Among them, many employ elements of gamification to increase user engagement and reach out to a broader audience. However, there are no systematic criteria to analyze their relevance and impact for building fake news resilience, partly due to the lack of a common understanding of data literacy.
