Modeling mammal response to fire based on species’ traits
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Fire has shaped ecological communities worldwide for millennia, but impacts of fire on individual species are often poorly understood. We performed a meta‐analysis to predict which traits, habitat, or study variables and fire characteristics affect how mammal species respond to fire.

Spatial mismatch between wild bee diversity hotspots and protected areas
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Wild bees are critical for multiple ecosystem functions but are currently threatened. Understanding the determinants of the spatial distribution of wild bee diversity is a major research gap for their conservation. We modeled wild bee α and β taxonomic and functional diversity in Switzerland to uncover countrywide diversity patterns and ...

MsaH2A.W is identified response to salt tolerance in Miscanthus sacchariflorus
GCB Bioenergy, Volume 15, Issue 8, Page 1058-1073, August 2023., 2023 To study the underlying genetic basis of Miscanthus adaptation to salt stress, the transcriptome variations of Miscanthus sinensis, Miscanthus sacchariflorus and their hybrid were analysed using RNA‐seq technology under salt treatment. According to the expression pattern of known salt‐tolerant genes, a histone variant gene MsaH2AW of M.

Time‐lagged effects of habitat fragmentation on terrestrial mammals in Madagascar
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 5, October 2022., 2022 Abstract Biodiversity is severely threatened by habitat destruction. As a consequence of habitat destruction, the remaining habitat becomes more fragmented. This results in time‐lagged population extirpations in remaining fragments when these are too small to support populations in the long term.

Journal of Diabetes, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 551-561, August 2022., 2022 Highlights This is the first randomized, single‐blind, double‐dummy, parallel controlled clinical trial collecting data on the efficacy and safety of Chinese herbal medicines compared to that of pregabalin in patients with painful diabetic neuropathy. The Xiaoketongbi Formula is an effective treatment that can relieve pain symptoms, improve quality of ...

Prioritizing forest management actions to benefit marine habitats in data‐poor regions
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022 Abstract Land‐use change is considered one of the greatest human threats to marine ecosystems globally. Given limited resources for conservation, we adapted and scaled up a spatially explicit, linked land–sea decision support tool using open access global geospatial data sets and software to inform the prioritization of future forest management ...

Modelling old‐age retirement: An adaptive multi‐outcome LAD‐lasso regression approach
International Social Security Review, Volume 75, Issue 1, Page 3-29, January/March 2022., 2022 Abstract Using unique administrative register data, we investigate old‐age retirement under the statutory pension scheme in Finland. The analysis is based on multi‐outcome modelling of pensions and working lives together with a range of explanatory variables.

Veterinary Dermatology, EarlyView.Background: Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a common, chronic skin condition characterised by epidermal barrier dysfunction, immune dysregulation and cutaneous dysbiosis. While “emollient plus” formulations are widely used in human atopic dermatitis, their role in cAD remains underexplored. Hypothesis/Objectives: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and

Using porous metals to enhance heat transfer in phase change materials (PCMs) [PDF]
, 2011 Heat transfer enhancement mechanism of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) by high-porosity metal foams was investigated in this study. The Darcy-Brinkman-Forchheimer modified flow model was employed in the numerical simulations to consider the non-Darcy ...

SWEET1‐mediated glucose transport is crucial for energy availability in Arabidopsis
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1816-1830, February 2026.Summary The stress‐responsive hormone abscisic acid (ABA) is known for its inhibitory effects on various physiological processes, including seed germination, often resulting in energy deprivation. Interestingly, ABA‐induced germination inhibition can be alleviated by exogenous glucose (Glc), mimicking a functional interplay between ABA and sugar ...
