Mechanisms reducing parasympathetic activity in chronic hypoxia

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Parasympathetic activity is reduced in chronic hypoxia, but the underlying mechanism(s) are unclear. Using β‐adrenergic blockade to isolate parasympathetic control of heart rate at sea level and after 9‐12 days at high altitude, we investigated whether (i) chemoreflex activation, (ii) increased pulmonary ventilation and/or (iii ...

Prevalence of SARS‐CoV2 in Communities Surrounding Bwindi–Mgahinga Mountain Gorilla Conservation Area, Uganda

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 4, December 2026.
COVID‐19 threatens endangered mountain gorilla populations due to close human contact. A cross‐sectional study (n = 576) in communities around Bwindi–Mgahinga Conservation Area found 8.0% prevalence of SARS‐CoV2. Frequent handwashing was a predictor for reduced prevalence of SARS‐CoV2. Strengthening prevention measures is critical to limit transmission

Exploring Recreational Conflict on Shared Backcountry Tramping and Mountain Biking Tracks in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Geographer, Volume 82, Issue 3, December 2026.
ABSTRACT In a move away from exclusive use by modality, a number of shared tramping and mountain biking tracks have been developed in New Zealand. We ask: On shared tracks, what tensions arise and how are they experienced? Using data from online surveys of track‐users, we examine bikers' and trampers' perspectives and experiences of conflict.

Relationships among nitrous oxide exposure, neurological injury and biomarkers

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 11, Page 3959-3971, November 2026.
Aims Recreational nitrous oxide (N2O) misuse is an increasing public health problem associated with functional cobalamin (B12) deficiency and severe neurological complications. Despite growing recognition of its harms, the dose–response relationship and clinical value of biomarkers remain unclear.

Teachers' Sense of Place and Perspectives on Climate Change Education: Moving Toward Community‐Based, Justice‐Oriented Approaches

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 63, Issue 9, Page 841-860, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Science education often approaches climate change as a scientific issue, disconnected from its multidimensional nature and lived realities. As climate‐related disasters intensify, teachers must help students confront climate challenges by connecting scientific learning to local contexts and addressing embedded systemic injustices.

Vanishing Winters and Shrinking Ice: Ecosystem Services and Societal Impacts in the Laurentian Great Lakes

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract The Laurentian Great Lakes are undergoing rapid winter transformations, with profound implications for human societies. Winter air temperatures have increased, accelerating ice loss since the mid‐1990s. These trends are altering thermal regimes, shifting precipitation from snow to rain, and increasing winter runoff and nutrient fluxes, with ...
