High-Speed Railways and Chinese Executive Compensation
Emerging transportation infrastructure (e.g., HSR) is considered to be an important influencing factor of executive compensation in China. Moreover, information asymmetry is a contextual factor that cannot be ignored in the above relationship. The operation of HSR positively affects the executive compensation of enterprises in cities along the line. In addition, compared with state-owned enterprises, the impact of a high-speed railway on executive compensation is particularly significant in private enterprises. Furthermore, compared with well-known enterprises, the impact of high-speed railways on executive compensation is particularly significant in enterprises with low visibility.

Higher Blood Pressure & Neurodegeneration
High Blood Pressure (Hypertension) is a major risk factor for cerebral health. Midlife hypertension is associated with a two- to five-fold increased risk of stroke, and up to 50% greater risk of developing vascular dementia. Moreover, hypertension is also linked to the development of amyloid angiopathy, the progression of white matter lesions (WMLs), and neurodegeneration. This recent meta-analysis demonstrates that higher blood pressure, even within the normal range, is associated with a reduction in global and regional brain volumes.
