1. Weight words double as words for ease and difficulty, and straightness for correctness, but no spatial or weight word means happy or sad

   Embodied accounts of affect propose that position, weight, tension and shape are bodily templates for mood and evaluation: down and heavy for sadness, up and light for happiness, tension for anger, crookedness for badness. If such mappings are deep, many unrelated languages should use one word for both senses. In two registered analyses of the CLICS4 colexification database, "light" and "easy" share a word in {{R2.pairs.LIGHT (WEIGHT)|EASY.families_colexifying}} of {{R2.pairs.LIGHT (WEIGHT)|EASY.families_with_both}} language families, mirroring "heavy" and "difficult", and "straight" shares a word with "correct" in {{R1.pairs.STRAIGHT|CORRECT (RIGHT).families_colexifying}} families. By contrast, "up" or "high" and "happy", "down" or "low" and "sad", and "light" and "happy" share a word in at most one family each, and "hard" never shares one with "angry". Across languages, weight is lexicalised as effort and straightness as rightness, but emotion is kept lexically apart from posture and weight.

   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: In CLICS4 v1.0, one word means both 'light (in weight)' and 'easy' in 11 of 50 language families with words for both (rate 0.22), more often than 'light' pairs with any of its reference concepts, and 'heavy' and 'difficult' share a word in 7 of 57 families, so weight words double as words for ease and difficulty at both poles.
   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: Words for vertical position or weight almost never double as words for happiness or sadness: up-happy 1 of 66 families, high-happy 0 of 145, down-sad 0 of 21, low-sad 0 of 108, light-happy 0 of 146.
   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: 'Straight' shares a word with 'correct' in 38 of 155 families and with 'good' in 7 of 200, whereas 'crooked' shares a word with 'wrong' in 4 of 113 and with 'bad' in 1 of 171, so the straightness-evaluation link is lexicalised mainly at its positive pole.

2. 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.

   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: In 27 adults from the PhysioNet Cerebral Vasoregulation in Diabetes sit-to-stand recordings, standing with eyes open raised the lag-1 autocorrelation of linearly detrended beat-to-beat systolic blood pressure relative to the preceding 240 s of sitting, by a Hodges-Lehmann shift of 0.043 (bootstrap 95% CI 0.007 to 0.076), with 19 of 27 participants rising (one-sided Wilcoxon signed-rank p = 0.012; Holm-adjusted across two primary tests p = 0.025).
   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: In the same recordings, the standing-induced rise in systolic-pressure lag-1 autocorrelation was not larger in 13 adults with type 2 diabetes than in 14 controls: the probability that a diabetic participant's rise exceeds a control's was 0.505 (bootstrap 95% CI 0.28 to 0.73; one-sided Mann-Whitney p = 0.49), which rules out only differences larger than that interval's upper end, since the test had 80% power only at a standardised difference of about 1.0.

3. 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.

4. 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 $6.1 \times 10^{11}$.

5. 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.

6. 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.

7. A cutoff-indexed rational benchmark for false membership conclusions in Mandelbrot iteration

   We provide an explicit rational parameter for every finite iteration cutoff. Its critical orbit remains uniformly below the usual escape radius throughout the cutoff, although an elementary growth argument proves that it eventually escapes. The contribution is a deterministic adversarial test family, a short uniform proof, and a certified finite benchmark. Integer enclosures and Arb ball arithmetic agree on 7 cases, with first-escape counts [23,61,212,815,3228,12879,51482]. Slow escape near the real parabolic cusp is established in the literature; we claim no discovery of that phenomenon or of its asymptotic law.

8. How often a 95% interval for a binomial proportion covers it: exact coverage for every sample size from 5 to 100

   A nominal $95\%$ confidence interval for a binomial proportion should contain the true proportion $p$ in about $95\%$ of samples. Computed exactly, with nothing simulated, for every sample size $5 \le n \le 100$ and every $p$ on a grid of step $0.001$, the textbook Wald interval covers $p$ less than $0.93$ of the time at a fraction 0.463088 of the 95904 $(n, p)$ pairs, and averages 0.88228. The Wilson score interval falls below $0.93$ at a fraction 0.032981 of them, and the Agresti-Coull interval at 0.003681. The Clopper-Pearson interval never covers less than $0.95$, but averages 0.970942, so it is wider than it needs to be. Adding one observation can lower the Wald interval's coverage by more than a tenth. These values reproduce, on a fine grid and with every value declared, the behavior Brown, Cai and DasGupta (2001) described.

9. Exact distributions of longest increasing subsequences certify finite-n convergence toward the Tracy-Widom limit

   What are the exact finite-sample distributions of longest increasing subsequence lengths in random permutations, and how rapidly do their moments approach the limiting Tracy-Widom law? We compute the exact distribution of longest increasing subsequence lengths for every sample size up to 50 using the Robinson-Schensted-Knuth correspondence and the hook-length formula. At the largest sample size, the exact expected length is 11.309389 with variance 1.94134, corresponding to a normalized centered mean of -1.475863 and normalized variance of 0.526961. Across all 50 sample sizes, the expected length remains strictly below two times the square root of the sample size, with maximum ratio 0.799695. Exhaustive enumeration via patience sorting independently confirms every distribution count across 409113 permutations.

10. 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.

13. Unknown participant overlap cannot reverse four composite-event point estimates in a frozen antidepressant trial dataset

    Can unknown overlap between adverse-event terms change the direction of published composite-event estimates? We reconstructed the frozen registry comparisons and calculated every possible range of distinct affected participants consistent with the selected term counts. For adult serious suicidal behaviour, the resulting Mantel–Haenszel risk-ratio bounds are 1.712 to 2.1962; for adult serious suicidality, 1.2154 to 1.8476. The corresponding pediatric bounds are 1.0045 to 1.4773 and 1.8144 to 2.8091. All remain above the null. Unknown overlap therefore changes the magnitude but cannot reverse these fixed-data point estimates under the source's cohort and outcome definitions. These are identification bounds, not confidence intervals or estimates of causal treatment effects.

14. 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.

15. Species-resolved enzyme profiles leave few eligible longitudinal compensation events in Crohn’s disease

    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.

    • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: Among 277 consecutive retained Crohn’s specimen intervals under the specified read-filtered, species-relative-abundance-decline and paired-transcript eligibility rules, EC 2.8.3.8, 2.7.2.7, 2.8.3.9 and 2.3.1.19 yield respectively 6, 6, 4 and 0 eligible intervals, of which respectively 1, 1, 0 and 0 also have agreeing numeric calprotectin metadata at both visits.

16. 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.

    • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: Conditional on the frozen Great Britain national intensity snapshot and a uniform half-hour arrival workload, three-hour jobs allowed up to six hours of start delay have 11.24% and 12.01% lower mean assigned intensity under 2023-trained seasonal profiles than immediate execution across 17,424 and 17,472 jobs in 2024 and 2025, respectively, while 17.61% and 15.55% have higher intensity and a lagged recent-history profile changes the seasonal mean by -0.21 and -0.07 g CO2/kWh, without establishing causal emissions avoided or future workload performance.

17. Divergent Efficacy of Adaptive Versus Continuous Therapy Across Pre-Existing and De Novo Resistance Regimes

    Does adaptive therapy consistently outperform continuous maximum tolerated dose treatment? Simulating stochastic birth-death-mutation processes and competitive dynamics reveals a sharp bifurcation governed by baseline clonality. Under de novo mutation, continuous treatment achieves complete clonal eradication in 96.6% of simulated tumors, whereas adaptive therapy achieves 0% eradications due to mutational influx during drug holidays. Conversely, with 2% pre-existing resistance, adaptive therapy prolongs mean time to progression from 68.6 days to 74.8 days while reducing cumulative drug exposure by 18.1%. In competitive dynamics, the adaptive-to-continuous progression-time ratio contracts from 1.11 under a 20% fitness cost to 1.09 under neutral resistance. Thus, adaptive therapy requires established pre-existing resistance to provide clinical benefit.

    • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: Under de novo mutation without pre-existing resistance, continuous maximum tolerated dose therapy achieves complete stochastic clonal eradication in 96.6% of simulated tumors, whereas adaptive therapy achieves 0.0% eradications and incurs progression across all trials due to mutational influx during treatment holidays.

18. Seasonal electricity schedules retain lower average carbon intensity across two later years in Great Britain

    Can a simple electricity-use schedule transfer across years? We selected seasonal three-hour windows using 2023 data and evaluated them in later Great Britain grid records. Relative to midnight use, assigned average carbon intensity was 5.78% lower in 2024 and 13.15% lower in 2025. The schedule performed worse on 137 and 111 days, respectively. A single year-round window did not improve both years. These retrospective accounting results describe the recorded grid; they do not estimate emissions avoided by changing electricity demand.

    • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: In the frozen Great Britain national Carbon Intensity API actual series, three-hour seasonal UTC windows selected only from 2023 yield mean assigned-intensity reductions versus 00:00-03:00 UTC of 5.778479% across 364 complete days in 2024 and 13.150070% across 365 days in 2025, compared with -9.430428% and 2.353958% for the single 2023-selected year-round window, while the seasonal rule is worse on 137 and 111 days respectively; these are finite-period accounting comparisons and do not estimate causal emissions reductions.

19. Sparse species-resolved RNA prevents a reliable test of butyrate backup responses in Crohn's

    Can other microbes maintain butyrate-related transcription when a leading contributor declines? A preregistered audit of public IBDMDB profiles finds that the available pathway-level species assignments are too sparse for a reliable answer. Among 375 retained paired Crohn's samples from 52 participants, the primary pathway has positive community RNA in 205 samples but named-species RNA in only 25. The specified longitudinal analysis retains 6 sustained-decline episodes from 5 people. Every retained episode has zero reported RNA from the named alternatives throughout its observation window. These zeros do not distinguish undetected or unassigned transcription from biological failure of compensation.

    • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: In the audited public IBDMDB HUMAnN3 pathway tables, 375 retained paired Crohn's samples from 52 participants contain named-species PWY-5676 RNA in only 25 of 205 samples with positive community pathway RNA, and the preregistered sustained-contributor-decline analysis yields six episodes from five participants with zero reported alternative-species RNA at all three visits, preventing this operational analysis from distinguishing biological compensation failure from unresolved transcription.
