1. Mechanical cancer studies test different stages, and tumor-cell suppression does not measure primary prevention

   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. These endpoints answer different questions; neither a smaller transplantation risk nor a human biomarker change establishes primary prevention. This is a bounded, exploratory source audit, not a systematic review or a new biological experiment.

   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: In a purposively selected four-paper evidence map, the coded contrasts occupy four distinct endpoint classes, only one paper starts its reprogramming program with normal primary cells, and none measures incident cancer after a mechanical intervention in humans, with all counts restricted to this selected set rather than the literature.
   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: Reanalysis of Weaver et al. (1997) Table II gives 7/16 tumor-bearing mice after blocking-antibody pretreatment of already malignant cells versus 15/16 untreated and 14/16 control-antibody mice, risk ratios 0.4667 and 0.5000, with two-sided Fisher p-values 0.005923 and 0.023333 (Holm-adjusted 0.011846 and 0.023333), while conservative simultaneous 95% risk-ratio intervals are 0.1612 to 1.1614 and 0.1625 to 1.3304 under independent-binomial sampling.

2. Two prime races followed at every integer up to a hundred million

   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 $6.1 \times 10^{11}$.

3. 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.

   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: For all 22 precisions p from 3 through 24, the supplied exact-dyadic benchmark reaches the stationary value 1/2 under both rounding models and certifies finite exact first escapes, with first stationary transitions 8999 and 9532 and exact first escape 18196 at p=24.

4. How far four ways of adding a million doubles land from the correctly rounded sum

   Adding floating-point numbers one after another loses a little at each step, and how much depends on the order of the additions. For sums of up to a million doubles, drawn uniformly from $[0, 1)$ and from $[-1, 1)$, this study measures how far four common methods land from the correctly rounded sum, in units in the last place (ulps). Adding left to right, the error averages 196.86 ulps for a million positive values and grows with their number $n$ as about $n^{\alpha}$ with fitted $\alpha$ = 0.545, close to the square root that independent rounding errors predict. Pairwise summation stays within 2 ulps at every length. Kahan's and Neumaier's compensated sums return the correctly rounded sum in all 400 draws, including mixed-sign sums that nearly cancel. Every value is reproducible exactly, on any machine and Python version.

5. Integer arithmetic reproduces a finite-grid Wald interval undercoverage claim

   Do the reported undercoverage rates for a binomial Wald confidence interval survive an independent computation without floating-point membership or probability comparisons? A direct integer binomial expansion and a squared interval-membership test reproduce the earlier claim on all 95904 grid pairs. Coverage falls below the lower threshold at 44412 pairs and below the nominal threshold at 88522 pairs. The respective fractions, rounded as in the earlier work, are 0.463088 and 0.923027. This is a numerical audit of known behavior, not a new interval method.

6. Guaranteed income's mental-health benefit is not robust across randomized trials, and employment does not fall in its first year

   Guaranteed income, regular cash with no conditions, has been tested in many American cities and in national pilots, and its advocates expect it to improve mental health without reducing work. We pre-registered a meta-analysis of randomized trials of flat, unconditional cash in high-income countries, searching databases, registries, and the reports most pilots publish outside journals; 62 trials were eligible and 53 had results. About a year into payments, mental health was better in the cash arms by 0.09 standard deviations (CI 0.041 to 0.139) across 34 comparisons in a random-effects model, but the common-effect estimate, which weights the largest trials most, was -0.002 (-0.023 to 0.018), and smaller trials reported larger effects. Employment changed by 0.599 percentage points (-2.533 to 3.731), and the mental-health effect did not fade during payments. Any mental-health benefit of guaranteed income is small and confirmed only in small trials, and about a year in it does not detectably reduce employment.

   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: In 34 comparisons from 32 randomized trials of recurring unconditional cash in high-income countries (16,834 people analysed), mental health about 12 months into payments was better in the cash arms by a pooled standardized mean difference of 0.090 (95% CI 0.041 to 0.139; Holm-corrected p = 0.002) in the pre-registered random-effects model, but the pre-registered robustness checks failed: the common-effect estimate, which weights the largest trials most, was -0.002 (-0.023 to 0.018), the estimate among the 6 comparisons that kept at least 60% of those randomized was 0.043 (-0.077 to 0.163), and smaller comparisons reported larger effects (Egger's regression slope 1.54, 95% CI 0.75 to 2.33; p < 0.001).
   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: In 14 comparisons from 13 randomized trials of recurring unconditional cash (9,623 people surveyed, and 175,222 in Finland's employment registers), the share of people employed about 12 months into payments did not detectably change: +0.60 percentage points (95% CI -2.53 to 3.73; Holm-corrected p = 1.000), an interval that rules out a reduction larger than 2.53 points; counting the share employed full-time where a trial printed no share employed at all, the change over 31 comparisons was +1.13 points (-1.14 to 3.40).
   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: In 19 comparisons of recurring unconditional cash with mental-health estimates at two waves during payments a mean of 11.7 months apart, the effect on mental health did not fade while payments continued: the pooled change from the earliest to the latest wave was 0.000 standard deviations (95% CI -0.049 to 0.048; Holm-corrected p = 1.000), the effects at the two waves being 0.048 and 0.061; across every wave during payments of 34 comparisons, the effect changed by +0.015 standard deviations per year (-0.034 to 0.064).

7. Labor induction jumps at maternal age 40, and at 35 with a failed falsification check, without cesarean or newborn changes

   Turning 35, and again turning 40, moves a pregnancy into the "advanced maternal age" category, which carries more surveillance and more advice to deliver early. Using every US singleton first birth at term from 2016 to 2024, we compared mothers just below and just above each age with a preregistered regression discontinuity, using confidence intervals that stay valid when age is recorded in whole years. Labor induction jumps by 1.19 percentage points at 35 (honest 95% CI 0.7 to 1.68). The preregistered verdict is inconclusive, because the share of first births also jumps at 35, by 0.4 points. At 40, induction jumps by 2.86 points (2.05 to 3.67), and that secondary test meets its confirm rule. Delivery at 39 weeks rises at both ages. Cesarean delivery, NICU admission, low Apgar scores, severe maternal morbidity and term stillbirth show no jump at either age. The label appears to move delivery timing without changing these measured outcomes.

   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: Among singleton first births at 37-44 weeks in US natality files for 2016-2024, labor induction rises by 1.19 percentage points at maternal age 35 (honest 95% CI 0.70 to 1.68, bias bound 0.1 pp per year squared), but the preregistered decision rule classifies this primary test as inconclusive because the all-parity nulliparity share also jumps at age 35 (0.40 pp, Holm-adjusted p = 0.023).
   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: In the same population, labor induction rises by 2.86 percentage points at maternal age 40 (honest 95% CI 2.05 to 3.67), with no covariate discontinuity at 40 after Holm adjustment, so the preregistered secondary test at 40 meets its confirm rule.

   How many longitudinal observations support a species-resolved microbial compensation analysis in the public inflammatory-bowel-disease multi-omics dataset? A reproducible eligibility audit finds 277 candidate intervals after specimen matching and sequencing-depth filtering. Four broad enzyme annotations yield [6,6,4,0] eligible contributor-decline intervals, in the stated annotation order; only [1,1,0,0] also contain paired numeric calprotectin metadata. These counts describe the specified measurement design, not whether biological compensation succeeds or fails.

9. Capacity and idle power limit assigned carbon reductions from daily batch scheduling

   How much does scheduling a daily batch by historical grid intensity help when computing capacity and idle power are explicit? We evaluate seasonal clock-time profiles trained on 2023 public Great Britain data, with equal work and equal energy in every comparison. At 50% utilization, assigned carbon falls by 11.63% in 2024 and 12.81% in 2025 relative to uniform processing. Setting idle power to 50% of maximum power reduces these advantages to 3.88% and 4.27%. Some dates have higher assigned carbon after shifting. These results describe a fixed historical workload benchmark and an accounting signal; they do not measure avoided emissions.

10. Historical schedules lower assigned grid carbon intensity under deadlines, with higher intensity for some jobs

    Do historical electricity schedules help when jobs arrive throughout the day and cannot wait indefinitely? We evaluated fixed seasonal profiles and recent-history profiles on public Great Britain grid records. For the primary workload, seasonal scheduling lowered mean assigned carbon intensity by 11.24% in 2024 and 12.01% in 2025 relative to immediate execution. Yet 17.61% and 15.55% of jobs received higher intensity. Recent-minus-seasonal mean differences were -0.21 and -0.07 g CO2/kWh. These are retrospective accounting results for a synthetic workload, not measured emissions avoided.
