Phylogenomic analysis of ultraconserved elements clarifies relationships and morphological evolution in Cryptoplacoidea (Mollusca: Polyplacophora)

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Targeted enrichment of ultraconserved elements (UCEs) is a powerful tool for resolving phylogeny in groups with limited morphological or molecular data. Here, we use UCEs to reconstruct the first comprehensive phylogeny of the chiton superfamily Cryptoplacoidea, including museum material up to 133 years old.

Areas of high risk for mammalian biodiversity and nature's contributions to people under global warming

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Climate change has reached unprecedented levels, causing frequent extreme events like droughts and fires. These changes are driving a sharp rise in extinction risk for mammals and threatening key Nature's Contributions to People (NCP) such as clean water, air quality, and climate regulation.

Implementing a behavioural intervention for paediatric type 1 diabetes: Key informant perspectives of multilevel barriers and facilitators

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Providers, healthcare leaders, adolescents and caregivers identified evidence of intervention effectiveness in lowering glycaemic levels as a key facilitator of implementing a type 1 diabetes behavioural intervention. Critical barriers to implementation include buy‐in among clinic leaders, resource availability within clinics and meeting families ...

Brains of African mole-rats in numbers: Data for testing the social brain hypothesis

, 2016
The social brain hypothesis (SBH) posits that complex social environments exert a major selection pressure driving the evolution of large brains and intelligence. The hypothesis was first proposed to explain the remarkable cognitive abilities of primates

The role of sex and ethnicity in the variability of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in people with type 1 diabetes

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Exploring Sex and Ethnicity Differences in eGFR for People with Type I Diabetes. Abstract Aims To examine sex‐based differences in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) trajectories for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) over 10 years and to test the hypothesis that sex and ethnicity interaction predicts eGFR decline.

Progression to type 1 diabetes across the autoimmunity and glycaemia continuum: Insights from real‐world paediatric and adult cohorts

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Type 1 diabetes (T1D) follows a staged autoimmune natural history, yet most evidence describing progression derives from highly selected, genetically at‐risk cohorts. Methods Using the TriNetX Network, we identified eight cohorts of autoantibody‐positive individuals without prior T1D. Four cohorts had preserved glycaemia (HbA1c ≤5.6%

The Ahlqvist Subphenotypes of Type 2 Diabetes: A Narrative Review of Scientific Evidence and Its Potential Contribution to Precision Diabetes

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Among several approaches, k‐means clustering has established as a widely used method to classify people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) into distinct subphenotypes, and the Ahlqvist T2D subphenotypes of Severe Insulin Deficient Diabetes (SIDD), Mild Age‐Related Diabetes (MARD), Mild Obesity Diabetes (MOD) and Severe Insulin Resistant ...

Why we Should Study Solitary Species to Understand the Costs of Group‐Living

Ethology, EarlyView.
It's easier to measure the benefits than the costs of a trait. Solitary species benefit by avoiding the costs of group living. Thus, measuring benefits of solitary living informs us about the costs of group living. ABSTRACT While for decades behavioral ecologists have studied the benefits of group living, measuring its costs has been more difficult. It
