Article Abstract

Objective: Exogenous shocks trigger rally effects, leading the public opinion toward increased trust in institutions. Rally effects have an important social function because they help society react to shocks rapidly and efficiently as a single unit and cohesively face the threat. However, little is known about the individual functions that these effects fulfil. In this study, we aimed to analyze the individual functions of the rally effect.

Method: In a three-wave longitudinal study on a quota sample of the Italian adult population ( = 1070), we analyzed the individual consequences of the increase in institutional trust triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Results: A path analysis showed that increased trust in political, and international institutions fostered well-being, reducing anxiety, collective angst, and anger via the mediation of participants' perceived control over their lives.

Conclusion: Beyond their well-known social functions, rally effects fulfil the individual function of favoring people's psychological well-being.

Changes in epigenetic processes such as histone acetylation are proposed as key events influencing cancer cell function and the initiation and progression of pediatric brain tumors. Valproic acid (VPA) is an antiepileptic drug that acts partially by inhibiting histone deacetylases (HDACs) and could be repurposed as an epigenetic anticancer therapy. Here, we show that VPA reduced medulloblastoma (MB) cell viability and led to cell cycle arrest.

Our aim in this study was to analyze gender differences across amateur and professional padel players related to the last shot of each rally. We analyzed a total of 180 games per category (professional and amateur), with 90 games for each gender. We performed descriptive and inferential analyses, including the Chi-square (χ2) statistical test, the Cramer's V coefficient (Vc), subsequent Z-tests and corrected standard residuals (CSR).

Background/objectives: Pelvic radiotherapy (RT) improves survival in gynecologic cancer patients but often results in gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity, affecting quality of life. Standard nutrition guidance lacks specificity for these survivors, complicating dietary choices. To address this gap, the EDIBLE intervention was developed to offer structured dietary self-management skills to alleviate RT-induced GI toxicity.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of early postpartum supplementation of Rally®, a sorbitol-containing feed additive (RAL), on lactation performance and automatic milking system (AMS) metrics on a commercial dairy farm. Multiparous (MT) and primiparous (PP) Holstein cows were randomly assigned to either RAL supplementation (570 g/d RAL; RAL-MT, n = 75, RAL-PP, n = 34) or control (CTL-MT, n = 72; CTL-PP, n = 38). The RAL cows were supplemented from 1 to 30 d in milk via an automated feed dispenser in the AMS.
