This study investigated how different sound frequencies (0, 1,000, 5,000, and 15,000 Hz) affect the growth of Phaseolus vulgaris and the transpiration rates of Gaultheria shallon. Although some differences in plant growth were observed, the authors found no consistent evidence that sound frequency enhanced overall growth or transpiration, highlighting the need for further research.
Read More...Differences in online reviews between different communities: An empirical study on Amazon and Goodreads
Online review platforms often provide different reviews on the same product, potentially confusing consumers. In this study, we found that the number of raters on Amazon is lower for the same book, while ratings on Amazon were higher than those on Goodreads. Furthermore, these differences in ratings and rater counts were larger for fiction books than for non‑fiction books.

People react to music by moving and dancing. This study examined if different types of music were correlated with higher heart rates and if this was at all affected by music preferences.

Modern day fossil fuels are prone to polluting our environment, which can provide major habitat loss to many animals in our ecosystems. Algae-based biofuels have become an increasingly popular alternative to fossil fuels because of their sustainability, effectiveness, and environmentally-friendly nature. To encourage algae growth and solidify its role as an emerging biofuel, we tested basic (in terms of pH) solutions on pond water to determine which solution is most efficient in inducing the growth of algae.

This project investigated whether previously identified genetic risk factors in non-Korean populations were associated with high gastric cancer incidence rates in Koreans.
Read More...Analyzing the effects of genetic mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, BARD1, and MLH1 in causing different cancers
This paper utilizes multiple publicly available cancer datasets to explore the abundance of different genetic dependencies across various cancer types. They explore this by looking at four genes highly associated with cancer and their genetic and pathogenic relationships.

The authors looked at genes that were differentially expressed in patients who had and had not had febrile seizures to determine what differences in gene expression existed.
Read More...Implication of education levels on gender wage gap across states in the United States and Puerto Rico
Here the authors examined the relationship between education levels and the gender wage gap (GWG) in the US and Puerto Rico from 2010 to 2022, hypothesizing that higher education would correlate with a lower GWG. Their analysis of income data revealed an inverse correlation, where higher education levels were associated with reduced gender wage disparities, suggesting that policies aimed at closing the gender gap in higher education could promote socioeconomic equality.
