On or off topic? Understanding the effects of issue-related political targeted ads.

Whilst data-driven strategies are allegedly prevalent in political campaigns, evidence regarding their actual effectiveness is scarce. This study investigates, from an individual perspective, the effect of issue congruency in political ads on immediate responses and voting behaviors. To reach our goal, we combined different types of data collection: mobile experience sampling method (mESM), panel survey, and content analysis.

MRI-Based Artificial Intelligence in Rectal Cancer.

Rectal cancer (RC) accounts for approximately one-third of colorectal cancer (CRC), with death rates increasing in patients younger than 50 years old. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is routinely performed for tumor evaluation. However, the semantic features from images alone remain insufficient to guide treatment decisions.

Engineering Mechanical Compliance of an Organic Compound toward Flexible Crystal Lasing Media.

Recently, organic crystals with mechanical flexibility have been emerging as a hot research topic due to their great potentials in flexible optoelectronics. However, organic crystals exhibiting elastic bending or plastic bending are relatively rare. In this study, we proposed a strategy to improve the probability of crystal flexibility as well as to regulate the mechanical properties by controlling polymorphism.
