Effects of red meat taxes and warning labels on food groups selected in a naturalistic online grocery store: Data from a randomized controlled trial
This dataset is from a study that aimed to test the impact of taxes and warning labels on red meat purchases in a naturalistic online grocery store. The dataset contains observations from n=3,518 US red meat consumers, sampled from a national panel. Eligibility criteria included: aged 18 years or older and self-reported consumption of red meat at least 1 or more times per week in the past 30 days. Participants were randomized to one of four conditions: control, warning labels, tax, or combined (warning labels and tax). Participants then completed a hypothetical shopping task in a naturalistic online grocery store. Participants in the experimental conditions (warning labels, tax, or combined) saw red meat products with health and environmental warning labels about red meat, a 30% tax, or both, according to the assigned condition. Participants in the control condition saw no additional taxes or labels on red meat products. This secondary analysis categorized the foods participants selected into food groups based on the presence of animal- and plant-source ingredients (e.g., beef, eggs, pulses), meat processing level (e.g., processed pork versus unprocessed pork), and meat species (e.g., beef versus pork).
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Institutional Review Board approved this study (protocol #: 19-3349). This work was funded through a grant from the Wellcome Trust, grant id #216042/Z/19/Z

The mechanism study of the effect of senegenin on hepatocellular carcinoma by regulating the level of O-GlcNAc glycosylation
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a condition with numerous etiologies and risk factors, according to the studies that are currently available. The pathogenesis of HCC remains to be studied. This study's goal was to investigate the part that senegenin and O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamineylation (O-GlcNAcylation) play in the growth and metastasis of HCC as well as the underlying molecular mechanism. Methods: We used western blot to measure O-GlcNAcylation and O-linked N-acetylglucosamine transferase (OGT) levels in HCC tissues and cells. The effects of senegenin on HCC cell proliferation and metastasis were assessed using CCK8, clonal, and transwell migration assays. We also evaluated the impact of senegenin and O-GlcNAcylation modification on pathway proteins through drug use and lentiviral infection. Results: HCC tissues and cells showed elevated OGT and O-GlcNAcylation levels. Modifying O-GlcNAcylation significantly influenced cancer cell proliferation, invasion, clonogenicity, and metastatic capacity. Senegenin treatment regulated O-GlcNAcylation, slowing HCC cell proliferation and migration, and altered Nuclear Factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NK-κB) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway protein levels involved in endoplasmic reticulum stress. Conclusion: Senegenin works by focusing on related proteins in the NK-κB and JNK pathway to lower O-GlcNAcylation levels, decrease OGT expression, and inhibit cancer cell growth and metastasis

Helicon and lower hybrid current drive comparisons in tokamak geometry
The parallel current driven by applied helicon waves is evaluated in tokamak geometry along with the radio frequency (rf) power absorbed by the passing electrons. The results are compared to the corresponding expressions for lower hybrid current drive. The efficiency of both current drive schemes is found to be the same in the single wave frequency, single mode number limit. The evaluation of the parallel currents is performed using an adjoint technique and tokamak geometry is retained by using an eigenfunction expansion appropriate for a transit averaged long mean free path treatment of electrons making correlated poloidal passes through the applied rf fields
Replication Data for: Transparency and Citizen Support for Public Agencies: The Case of Foreign Aid
Can public agencies boost support for their mandate by being more transparent? We examine this important question in the context of foreign aid. Skepticism about foreign aid spending is common among citizens. This article argues that bilateral aid agencies can increase support for foreign aid by enhancing transparency. The article presents findings from three survey experiments involving a representative sample of 2,058 British citizens, as well as observational data at the cross-national level. The results suggest that transparency reforms are among the most effective institutional interventions for increasing public support. They also suggest that transparency is most effective at increasing public support among those who are initially more skeptical of aid and the civil service. Finally, they suggest that citizens do not have strong preferences about the type of information disclosed. They reward all types of transparency
