Article Abstract
This study tries to find evidence that points towards the best typeface to use in e-commerce websites to maximize usability, trust, loyalty, appearance and overall user satisfaction. We tested the difference between serif and sans serif inside the same font family. A total of 246 volunteers participating in the experiment were asked to complete a set of tasks and a questionnaire on an e-commerce website prototype. We measured task completion time, reading speed and reading comprehension. From the results, using multiple linear regression, we deduced that only gender determines user preferences. Females tend to prefer the serif version of the typeface under study. Although most e-commerce websites use sans serif typefaces, we could not find evidence supporting this decision. The serif and sans serif characteristic inside the same font family does not affect usability on a website, as it was found that it has no impact on reading speed and user preference.

Disordered proteins are of great interest due to their structural features, as they do not have well- defined three-dimensional structures. These proteins, often called intrinsically disordered proteins or regions, play critical roles in various cellular processes and are associated with the development of a number of diseases. Our in silico research focused on the investigation of protein complexes that include both ordered proteins, such as 14-3-3γ, and proteins containing intrinsically disordered regions, such as nucleocapsid (N) of SARS-CoV-2 and p53.

The game series has utilized in-game posters as both decorative and narrative elements, which have helped it shape its post-apocalyptic world. These posters often serve as (satirical) propaganda and reflect the societal structures, ideologies, and conflicts of the game's dystopian setting. This study analyzes all propaganda-themed posters from six role-playing video games (1997-2018) to examine their multimodal features and propaganda techniques.

In a field traditionally driven by intuition and subjective judgment, this study presents a data-driven approach to typography, the art of arranging text. Leveraging a comprehensive dataset of font-use cases across diverse mediums, we employed Non-negative Matrix Factorization to extract three fundamental morphological characteristics of fonts: Serif vs. Sans-Serif, Basic vs.

Introduction Various types of fonts such as serif, sans serif, and script are used during writing and reading, which can affect the reader's attention and working memory, though there is only a subtle difference at the end of the letter. The study aimed to see the effect of font type on working memory and attention. Methods The study included healthy male adults between 18 and 40 years of age.

Article Synopsis
- The identification and management of patients at high bleeding risk (HBR) during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is critical, but inconsistent definitions complicate trials and clinical choices.
- The Valve Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (VARC-HBR) involves global experts aiming to create a standard definition for HBR patients based on extensive research.
- This initiative, led by the Cardiovascular European Research Center (CERC), seeks to enhance the safety and effectiveness of TAVI interventions and improve future clinical guidelines.
