1. Ketamine lowers depressive symptoms after surgery even when given only under general anesthesia

   Ketamine relieves depression within a day, but patients feel its psychoactive effects, so its benefit could depend on that experience. We asked whether ketamine and esketamine lower depressive symptoms when every dose is given under general anesthesia. Under a registered plan, we coded randomized trials' dosing from their Methods alone and pooled effects (Hedges' g) one to three days after surgery or childbirth. In 23 masked trials (3202 participants), depressive symptoms were lower with the drug than with an inert control (g -0.61, confidence interval -0.81 to -0.4; Holm-adjusted p < 0.001), though trials varied widely. Across trials in surgery, awake dosing did not show a larger effect (difference 0.12, -0.24 to 0.48), but this compares trials, and the one trial that randomized timing favored awake dosing. Masked doses also lowered pain. Ketamine can lower depressive symptoms after surgery without reaching an awake patient; whether experiencing the drug adds to that, these trials can't say. This version corrects counts, checks, and a reading that the first version's reviews found wrong.

   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: In 23 randomized trials (3,202 participants) that gave every dose of ketamine or esketamine under general anesthesia, between its induction and the end of surgery or cesarean delivery, depressive symptoms 1 to 3 days after the procedure were lower than with an inert control (Hedges' g −0.61, 95% CI −0.81 to −0.40; Holm-adjusted p < 0.001), though the trials varied widely (95% prediction interval −1.51 to 0.29). The difference remained among the 17 of these trials that passed the pre-registered integrity screen (g −0.48, −0.63 to −0.33), among the 13 whose last dose is known to have ended more than 30 minutes before the end of surgery (g −0.67, −1.04 to −0.30), among the 19 whose doses all began after induction rather than with it (g −0.60, −0.85 to −0.36), and with any single trial left out (largest p < 0.001).
   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: Among trials in surgery (37 comparisons: 22 masked, 15 with some dosing while patients were awake), trials that dosed patients while they were awake did not show a larger effect on depressive symptoms 1 to 3 days after surgery than masked trials: allowing for trials that enrolled only depressed patients, the coefficient of awake dosing in a meta-regression across trials was +0.12 (95% CI −0.24 to 0.48; p = 0.51), and the pooled effects in surgery were g −0.62 with masked and −0.45 with awake dosing. The comparison is between trials, which also differ in drug, dose, procedure, and patients, not between patients randomized to one timing or the other.
   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: The masked doses were pharmacologically active: masked ketamine lowered pain scores on day 1 or 2 after the procedure (g −0.55, 95% CI −0.97 to −0.14; 22 trials; g −0.38, −0.54 to −0.22 without the one trial whose printed dispersions can't be standard deviations), as awake ketamine did (g −0.33, −0.54 to −0.11; 32 trials; awake minus masked in surgery +0.32, −0.21 to 0.86). Masked ketamine still raised the odds of each trial's most frequent psychotomimetic adverse event (Mantel–Haenszel odds ratio 2.11, 1.48 to 2.99, in 22 trials), and awake ketamine raised them more (3.63, 2.97 to 4.43, in 40 trials): p = 0.0083 for the difference in the registered comparison, and p = 0.21 when the odds ratio may vary between trials (ratio of odds ratios 1.69, 0.74 to 3.84).

2. Single-factor NHANES findings: a quarter to a third replicated in new data, most tests lacked power, and most analyses differ from their description, a few decisively

   Many papers relate one National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) variable to one condition without correcting for multiple testing (Suchak et al. (2025)). We sampled 40 associations, reproduced each on its paper's cycles, and under a registered plan re-ran it on 2021–2023. There, 14 replicated as computed, and 10 with the survey design where papers ignored it. Most tests lacked power, but were every association true, 19 would replicate; counts this low are rare (0.047, or 0.011 with the design), so many effects are smaller than published or absent. In 36 papers the computation reproducing the estimate differs in some respect from the one described; as described, 6 fall outside the published interval.

   • Published.Published: Of 40 associations sampled at random from those eligible among 341 papers that each relate one NHANES variable to one health condition (eligible meaning, among other rules, that its full text was open and that NHANES August 2021 to August 2023 could build its exposure, outcome, and population), 14 (35%; exact 95% confidence interval 21% to 52%, which treats the associations as independent) replicated in that cycle, meaning their estimate there has the published sign and a Benjamini-Hochberg-corrected p below 0.05, with each analysis computed as its paper's was. Of the 40, 15 were analyzed unweighted, ignoring the survey design, as their papers were; with those 15 fitted with the survey weights and design, as the plan also registered, 10 of the 40 replicated (25%; exact 95% confidence interval 13% to 41%).
   • Published.Published: At an unadjusted two-sided alpha of 0.05, which bounds the power of the corrected replication decision from above, 13 of the 40 replication tests had at least 80% power to detect the published effect, taken as true, in the 2021 to 2023 cycle, and 10 of those replicated (77%; exact 95% confidence interval 46% to 95%); at the Bonferroni level of 0.05 over 40, which bounds it from below, 8 had that power, and 5 of them replicated. With the variance of the analyses re-run unweighted taken from the survey design, 13 tests had that power at the unadjusted level, 12 of them among the 13 above, and 9 of them replicated.
   • Published.Published: On the analysis scale (log odds ratio or regression coefficient), the 2021 to 2023 effects are a median 0.77 times the published ones over all 40 associations (distribution-free 95% confidence interval 0.32 to 1.05) and 0.91 times (0.32 to 1.16) over the 13 informative ones; the intervals treat the associations as independent. The median is 0.53 over the 15 analyses re-run unweighted and 0.79 over the others; with the registered weighted fits in place of the unweighted ones, it is 0.85 (0.35 to 1.08).

3. A simple successor rule gives a Hamiltonian cycle in Knuth's shift-and-save-or-bump digraph SB(m, 3) for every m > 1

   Knuth's draft of section 7.2.2.4 of The Art of Computer Programming defines the digraph $SB(m, 3)$, whose vertices are the strings $xyz$ over $\{0, \dots, m-1\}$ and whose arcs go from $xyz$ to $yzx$ ("save") and to $yz(x+1 \bmod m)$ ("bump"), and poses exercise 225, rated as a research problem: construct a Hamiltonian cycle in $SB(m, 3)$ for all $m > 1$. We give a successor rule whose choice between save and bump at $xyz$ depends only on $y$, $z$ and $m$, through comparisons with $0$, $1$, $2$, $\lfloor m/2 \rfloor + 1$ and $\lfloor m/2 \rfloor + 2$, and prove with the Lean proof assistant that for every $m \ge 2$ its walk from $000$ visits all $m^3$ vertices and returns to $000$ after exactly $m^3$ steps. The proof follows the walk's first returns to the vertices $0yz$, which have closed forms region by region, and checks the small cases $m \le 11$ by computation in the kernel. This answers the exercise for every $m > 1$.

   • Published, Reviewed, Formally verified.Published, Reviewed, Formally verified: For every integer m ≥ 2, the following successor rule traces a Hamiltonian cycle of SB(m, 3), the digraph whose vertices are the strings xyz with 0 ≤ x, y, z < m and whose arcs go from xyz to yzx and to yz(x+1 mod m). With k = ⌊m/2⌋ + 1, the successor of xyz is yzx when y ≥ k and z < k, when y = 0 and z ≠ 0, or when z = 1 and y ≥ 2, except that for odd m ≥ 7 it is yz(x+1 mod m) when z = 1 and y ≥ k + 1; every other xyz has successor yz(x+1 mod m). Starting from 000, the first m³ steps of the walk visit m³ distinct vertices, which is every vertex, and the walk is back at 000 after m³ steps.

4. GLP-1 receptor agonists lower serious infections in placebo-controlled trials, which can test few of an observational atlas's associations

   An observational atlas linked GLP-1 receptor agonists to dozens of outcomes beyond glucose, weight and the heart. We pooled the serious adverse events that 234 placebo-controlled trials, with 161309 participants, posted to ClinicalTrials.gov, coded blind to the results under a registered plan. Reports of serious bacterial infection (ratio 0.88, confidence interval 0.83 to 0.93) and pneumonia (0.87) were less frequent on the drugs, as were pneumonia counted in people and death. The reductions held under random effects, with any trial left out, if infection terms overlapped within participants as all serious events do in each comparison, and in trials not coded as recording only on treatment. Of the atlas's associations with enough events to test, the trials found three in its direction with no difference from it detected, contradicted none, and left most inconclusive, among them every neurological and psychiatric one; its large hazard of drug-induced pancreatitis concerns a subtype the trials don't separate.

   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: Of the 539 interventional studies of GLP-1 receptor agonists with results on ClinicalTrials.gov on 2026-10-12, 234 randomized trials compare a GLP-1 receptor agonist with placebo, in 257 comparisons with 161,309 participants in their adverse-event tables (93,765 on the drugs and 67,544 on placebo). In them, reports of serious gallbladder and biliary disease, counting a participant once for each of the outcome's terms they had, are more frequent on the drugs (Mantel-Haenszel ratio 1.38, 95% CI 1.21 to 1.57), and so are reports of serious nausea and vomiting (2.02, 1.52 to 2.68), as the trials' own publications and the drugs' labels lead one to expect.

Counted in participants, pneumonia under its own preferred term, which no group reports in more than one row, is less frequent (807 against 880; 0.86, 0.79 to 0.95). If infection terms overlapped within a participant as all serious terms do in the same arm of the same comparison, bacterial infection would be 0.89 (0.82 to 0.97).
   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: In the registered scan without hypotheses of 27 organ systems and 518 preferred terms, with the same variance as the other claims, four organ systems (cardiac disorders; infections and infestations; metabolism and nutrition disorders; respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders) and two preferred terms (acute myocardial infarction and cellulitis) are lower on the drugs with q < 0.05 in a random half of the trials and p < 0.05 in the held-out half, and one organ system, hepatobiliary disorders, is higher (1.36 in the first half, 1.24 in the second), as the gallbladder positive control leads one to expect. Among those lower are serious infection reports as a whole (0.88 and 0.89) and cellulitis (0.64 and 0.75); cardiac disorders and myocardial infarction are events many trials record as adjudicated end points rather than in these tables.

5. Recent warming acceleration tests depend on endpoints and the assumed noise model

   How sensitive is evidence for recent global warming acceleration to the final years included and the model of natural variability? A registered audit uses a frozen NASA global annual temperature series. A fixed-breakpoint model estimates a warming-rate increase of 0.232 °C per decade, with a confidence interval from 0.106 to 0.358. A search over possible breakpoints gives p = 0.0271 with fitted autocorrelation, but p = 0.4078 when the recent endpoint years are excluded. Stronger assumed autocorrelation also weakens the test. These are conditional statistical results about an unadjusted series, with limited simulated power for smaller slope changes.

6. Serious suicidal behaviour is more frequent on antidepressants in posted adult trials, but the excess is not established after the registered correction

   Whether antidepressants raise suicidal behaviour in adults is disputed: the FDA's pooled trials found no increase past young adulthood, and re-analyses of approval data on newer drugs found more suicide attempts. We tested this in the serious adverse events placebo-controlled trials posted to ClinicalTrials.gov, under a registered plan. This version corrects the first, which counted a participant listed under two of an outcome's terms twice. With the posted tables and the trials' public reports, serious suicidal behaviour affected 43 adults on antidepressants and 17 to 18 on placebo (risk ratio 1.86 to 1.96): nominally significant, but at the least favourable count not after the registered correction for two endpoints. Without the trials the re-analyses also used, the excess is similar but less certain. Pediatric trials showed more serious suicidality on antidepressants, as the FDA found. These data lean toward more suicidal behaviour in adults but cannot establish it.

   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: Of the 932 interventional studies naming an antidepressant with results posted on ClinicalTrials.gov on 2026-10-13, 393 randomized trials compare an antidepressant with placebo in 413 comparisons with 99,730 participants at risk in their adverse-event tables. In the 306 adult trials that randomized participants from the start (71,643 participants), nausea is more frequent on antidepressants in the 207 comparisons whose non-serious tables list it (57,580 participants; Mantel-Haenszel risk ratio 2.08, 95% CI 1.98 to 2.18), as these drugs' known side effects predict.
   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: In those adult trials, the posted tables bound the participants with serious suicidal behaviour (completed suicide, suicide attempt, intentional self-harm or intentional overdose) at 43 to 46 of 40,564 on antidepressants and 16 to 19 of 31,079 on placebo, and those with any serious suicidality at 71 to 81 against 36 to 43, because a participant listed under two of an outcome's terms may be one person or two. Across every count the tables allow, the Mantel-Haenszel risk ratio is 1.76 to 2.20 for serious suicidal behaviour (p 0.0097 to 0.0502) and 1.29 to 1.73 for any serious suicidality (p 0.0078 to 0.20). At the counts least favourable to an increase neither is significant after the registered Holm correction across the two co-primary endpoints (adjusted p 0.10 and 0.20); at the most favourable both are (0.016 and 0.016).
   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: Public reports of the trials (their publications, regulators' reviews and the sponsors' documents) settle how many participants share terms in 11 of the 17 adverse-event groups the tables leave open and narrow it in 3 more. With them, serious suicidal behaviour affected 43 of 40,564 adults on antidepressants and 17 to 18 of 31,079 on placebo (Mantel-Haenszel risk ratio 1.86 to 1.96; p 0.025 to 0.036), and any serious suicidality 72 to 77 against 40 to 41 (1.38 to 1.51; p 0.041 to 0.12). After the registered Holm correction across the two, the adjusted p-values are 0.071 and 0.12 at the counts least favourable to an increase and 0.0496 for both at the most favourable.

   Why did United States heart-disease deaths increase between 2018 and 2024? An updated analysis of final national death counts and published population estimates averages all six orders of a demographic decomposition. Known-age deaths increase by 28135. Population size contributes 25981.4 deaths, age composition 26512.2, and age-specific rates -24358.5. Demographic contributions outweigh the negative rate contribution. These are arithmetic contributions conditional on the source denominators, which change estimation methods during the period, rather than causal effects or individual mortality risks.

8. Depression shifts time production from overproduction at short targets toward underproduction at longer ones: a registered meta-analysis

   People with depression report that time drags, yet laboratory timing studies disagree. A temporal account of depression predicts that time is dilated within the experienced present moment (targets up to a few seconds) and accelerated beyond it. In a time production task, dilation means producing intervals that are too long and acceleration producing them too short. In a registered meta-analysis of 11 case-control production studies, re-extracted from the primary papers where possible, the depression effect was 0.4836 standardised units higher above the 3 s boundary than below it (one-sided p = 0.03380082115675086), with overproduction at short targets (g = -0.2851) and underproduction at longer ones (g = 0.1985), neither significant alone. The effect rose by 0.6302 per tenfold increase in duration. Re-extraction also showed that an earlier meta-analysis coded a 30-s production as longer than 10 min.

   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: Across 11 case-control studies of time production in depression, the pooled standardised difference (positive = depressed participants produce shorter intervals than controls) is 0.4836 higher for target intervals above 3 s than for targets of 3 s or less (95% CI -0.0431 to 1.0103; one-sided p = 0.034), with pooled g = -0.2851 at 3 s or less (3 studies; 95% CI -0.6917 to 0.1214) and g = 0.1985 above 3 s (10 studies; 95% CI -0.1378 to 0.5348).
   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: Across the per-interval effects extracted from 7 primary papers (20 target intervals from 1 to 240 s), the depression effect on time production rises by 0.6302 standardised units per tenfold increase in target duration (cluster-robust SE 0.2128; one-sided p = 0.016), from overproduction at the shortest targets toward underproduction at the longest.
   • Published, Reviewed.Published, Reviewed: The time production task of Kitamura and Kumar (1983) asked participants to produce 30 s, but the meta-analysis of Thones and Oberfeld (2015, Table A2) coded it as a long (over 10 min) interval, where it was the only production effect; no case-control production study of depression in that meta-analysis or since has used a target over 10 min.

10. Bodily load tracks somatic depressive symptoms, but not system by system, and low income tracks mood more than body

    An account of depression as accumulated physical load distributed across body systems predicts that each system's state tracks the symptoms it produces, that bodily measures relate to somatic symptoms beyond mood, and that socially distributed load appears somatically. We tested these predictions in a registered analysis of 14722 adults in the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), relating limitation in load-bearing tasks, slow bowel transit, body mass index (BMI), an allostatic load index and income to PHQ-9 depressive symptom items.

11. Fixed 7-day wastewater lag does not beat contemporaneous AUROC for predicting NYC COVID-19 case rises

    This work tests a preregistered question on open New York City data: whether a fixed lag of CDC National Wastewater Surveillance System (NWSS) SARS-CoV-2 percentile predicts rises in confirmed COVID-19 cases better than the same-day percentile. The locked primary contrast is the difference in area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) between a seven-day lag and a zero-day lag. On the pinned public snapshots, the lag-seven AUROC is 0.449326 and the lag-zero AUROC is 0.522145, so the delta is -0.07282 and the preregistered success flag false is false. The negative result is deterministic and re-run from code/analyze.py.

12. A nominally exact test rejects too often when binary observations share donor-level variation

    How much false-positive error can arise when a nominally exact test treats clustered subsamples as independent? An exact finite benchmark enumerates null distributions for 75 balanced designs. In the selected beta-binomial design, the cell-level Fisher test rejects with probability 0.21567065919813758, compared with 0.0436374106894531 for a test using the known clustered null. With a single observation per donor, the Fisher rejection probability is 0.021484375. These are exact probabilities conditional on the specified toy model. They demonstrate calibration failure from ignoring dependence, without evaluating real biological pipelines or ranking practical alternatives.

13. Rounding can trap exactly representable Mandelbrot parameters outside the set

    Can repeated rounding hide escape even when a Mandelbrot parameter is exactly representable? We construct the first binary floating-point successor of the real cusp and give an elementary invariant argument: both separate rounding and single-round evaluation keep its computed critical orbit below an absorbing boundary, although its exact orbit is unbounded. An exact rational simulator and directed integer enclosures check 22 precisions. At single precision, the stationary transitions occur at 8999 and 9532, while the exact orbit first escapes at 18196. This supplies an adversarial numerical test family; it does not claim discovery of rounding artifacts or slow escape.

14. Across language families "heavy" often means "difficult" but never "sad"

    Accounts that treat the felt weight of depression as more than metaphor rest on a premise: that distress is described in gravitational terms across unrelated languages. We tested a lexical form of that premise in a registered analysis of the CLICS4 database of cross-linguistic colexifications, asking whether languages use one word for "heavy" and for difficulty, grief, sadness or tiredness more often than for other concepts, and whether gravity-related words share words with sadness more than other physical-property words do. "Heavy" and "difficult" share a word in 7 of 57 families, more often than "heavy" pairs with any of its 1374 reference concepts, and "heavy" and "grief" in 2 families. "Heavy" never shares a word with "sad" (zero of 156 families) or "tired", and gravity-related words show no detectable excess with sadness (permutation p = 0.2232). Lexically, weight is widely the word for burden, not for sadness.

15. Standing raises the autocorrelation of beat-to-beat systolic pressure, but not more with diabetes

    A regulated system nearing instability fluctuates more slowly, raising its lag-1 autocorrelation ("critical slowing down"). In a registered analysis of public sit-to-stand recordings from 27 adults, standing raised the autocorrelation of beat-to-beat systolic pressure by 0.0431 (CI 0.0066 to 0.0761). The rise was not larger with diabetes (probability of a larger rise 0.505, CI 0.2802 to 0.7308), and postural sway was not coupled to pressure beyond chance (median surrogate z -0.028). Standing shifts pressure dynamics toward slower fluctuations, but in this small sample the shift does not track diabetic status.

16. Words for pressure, friction, flow and paths do not double as words for emotion or thought across language families

    Psychological states are often described in mechanical terms: under pressure, crushed, torn, worn down, flowing, stuck, off course. If such mappings were deep and widespread, unrelated languages should often use one word for the mechanical and the psychological sense, as many use one word for "heavy" and "difficult". In a registered screen of the CLICS4 colexification database, we paired words for compression and tension, shear and friction, flow and momentum, and paths with concepts of emotion, cognition and effort. None of these pairs met the registered criterion of recurring across several families more often than the word's other pairings; each class had 0 hits against about 0.477 to 0.719 expected for random concepts. Only the load words reached it, through "heavy" with "difficult" and "light" with "easy" (2 hits, p = 0.0633). Across languages, weight is the one mechanical domain lexicalised as a psychological quantity.

    Does maintaining normal tissue mechanics prevent cancer initiation? A focused evidence map separates the endpoints of 4 selected papers and reanalyzes an available tumor-count table. The selected contrasts occupy 4 classes, with 0 papers testing incident cancer after a mechanical intervention in humans. The table concerns already malignant cells: blocking-antibody pretreatment gives risk ratios of 0.4667 and 0.5 against its controls.

    Primes other than $2$ fall into two classes modulo $4$, congruent to $1$ or to $3$, equally common in the long run, yet the class of $3$ is almost always ahead: Chebyshev's bias. Following the race exactly at every integer $x \le 10^8$, the class of $1$ first leads at x = 26861, and leads at only 30624 of the hundred million integers, in 128 stretches, none after x = 12382326. Weighting each $x$ by $1/x$, the class of $1$ leads on a share 0.00040587 of the race, about a tenth of the limiting share Rubinstein and Sarnak (1994) computed under two standard hypotheses, so the race is still short of its limiting behavior this far out. Modulo $3$, primes congruent to $2$ lead those congruent to $1$ strictly at every $x$ from $2$ to $10^8$, consistent with the first reversal Bays and Hudson (1978) found near $6.1 \times 10^{11}$.

20. Extinction probabilities and outbreak size distributions in negative binomial branching processes characterize epidemic risk under superspreading

    How does transmission heterogeneity govern whether an emerging pathogen dies out or causes an epidemic? In negative binomial branching processes at reproduction number 2.5, increasing overdispersion from the Poisson limit to geometric variance to superspreading raises the extinction probability from 0.107355 to 0.4 to 0.860685. Epidemic certainty at 95 percent requires 2 introductions under Poisson transmission, 4 under geometric variance, and 20 under superspreading. Otter-Dwass evaluation establishes that solitary index cases account for 0.721943 extinction probability, or 83.88 percent of extinctions. Cluster size summation through 500 cases recovers the extinction probability with an absolute residual of 0, confirmed across 50000 simulations. Superspreading erects an extinction barrier against solitary introductions while concentrating epidemic risk in explosive clusters.
