Glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive primary malignant brain tumour in adults, with limited treatment options despite years of research. Since the 2005 introduction of the current standard of care, hundreds of clinical trials have...

Human cytomegalovirus seropositivity has shown varying levels of association with cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in previous studies. This study uses updated data from the UK Biobank to test these associations. The associati...

This paper introduces a novel theoretical framework for representing the internal structure of numeral systems. This framework is based on labels and reading conventions for the entries and columns of an abacus, which suffice to describe nu...
Making up numbers in Pano languages: idiosyncratic and unconventional base-free quantification inventories in Amazonia [0.03%]

Amazonian languages typically exhibit very small numeral systems or lack numerals altogether. Increasing economic and cultural pressures, however, often motivate the emergence of more complex inventories for exact quantification. Headwaters...

Languages lexicalize numerical concepts in many ways. Here I focus on what so-called 'low-limit' or 'restricted-range' numeral systems in Australian languages tell us about the linguistics of number concepts and how they change over time. I...
When bases clash: cultural, cognitive and practical ramifications of numeration systems used in parallel [0.03%]

Numeration systems are cognitive tools that can be used to assess both discrete and continuous magnitudes (by counting and measuring, respectively). The presence and numerical value of a base in such systems have implications on several lev...

Body-based numeration systems represent numbers through the use of body parts and hence are subject to constraints imposed by human anatomy. Body parts are readily available and can be manipulated in three-dimensional space, but are also pr...

We examine representational effects of Western numerals on mental arithmetic. An analysis of mental addition tasks using a base-10 place-value notation yields a taxonomy of addition types that is anchored in the notion of complements (i.e. ...

We review the empirical research on numerical bases in the context of spoken and written numerical expressions, visual number symbols and the mappings between these expressions and symbols. Most of this research has been carried out with sp...

Decimal numeral systems (base-10) are the most widespread type of counting system across the world's languages. Their ubiquity has often been attributed to presumed functional advantages, including ease of use, cognitive efficiency and arit...
