Is Hypercortisolism Treatable? Which Patients Should Be Treated and How—A Practical Guide for Clinicians

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To provide a practical guide on when to suspect endogenous hypercortisolism, how to use the overnight 1‐mg dexamethasone suppression test (DST) for targeted case‐finding, and which patients are most likely to benefit from treatment.

Transcriptomic and proteomic signatures underlying nymphal adaptation and foam production in the forage pest Mahanarva spectabilis

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
RNA‐seq and Batelli gland proteomics of fifth‐instar Mahanarva spectabilis nymphs reveal transcripts and proteins associated with xylem feeding, foam production and environmental interaction. Functional annotation identified genes involved in osmoregulation, detoxification, chemosensation and stress responses, while proteomic analysis confirmed ...

When biology meets materials science – Interdisciplinary applications of electron microscopy

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Research at the interface between biology and materials science creates challenges for electron microscopists. Everything from the sample preparation to the choice of imaging and analytical techniques and the interpretation of the resulting data refuses to sit comfortably within the domain of one discipline or the other.

UC2‐ESP: A general‐purpose framework for open‐source microscopy control

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Building the optical setup for investigating biological questions comes with challenges. A major such challenge is setting up and synchronizing the control of multiple hardware components such as stages, cameras and lasers. With UC2‐ESP, we present a low‐cost electronics system powered by the ESP32 microcontroller (∼$10), designed as an ...

Whole‐Night Gentle Rocking Improves Sleep in Poor Sleepers With Insomnia Complaints

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Specific brain oscillations can be manipulated during sleep to improve sleep quality and memory performance. We previously demonstrated that continuous rocking stimulation (0.25 Hz, lateral movement) applied to good sleepers during sleep enhanced stable deep sleep, boosted NREM oscillations (spindles and slow waves) and memory consolidation ...

Landscape conservation forecasting to evaluate ecological condition and wildlife habitat suitability in eastern Nevada U.S.A.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Cooperation among managers of protected areas and federal multiple use lands with private inholdings to increase restoration success and economies of scale creates ecological and regulatory complexity best studied with state‐and‐transition simulation models (STSM).

Multi‐objective maritime vessel routing with safety considerations

International Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 337-371, January 2027.
Abstract The routing of maritime vessels is a challenging optimization problem that involves finding an adequate balance between conflicting and multiple objectives. This paper proposes a methodology based on inverse optimization to find appropriate objective weights that account for conflicting objectives. To formulate the inverse optimization problem,

Coping With Production Risk: Effects of Sown Plant Diversity on the Attractiveness of Crop Insurance in Grasslands

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1119-1134, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Increased frequency of extreme weather events, particularly droughts, threatens grassland farming by destabilizing yields and farms' economic viability. We examine, theoretically and through numerical simulations, how sown plant diversity (natural insurance) influences the attractiveness of indemnity and drought index insurance (formal ...

Global Flash Drought Prediction Through Evaporative Stress Forecasting

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Flash droughts pose severe risks to societies and ecosystems due to their sudden onset and rapid intensification. Predicting their vegetation impacts at subseasonal timescales remains difficult. Advances in hybrid physics‐AI models and weather forecasting create new opportunities to enhance the predictability of evaporative stress, a key ...
