Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Building phenotypic character matrices for phylogenetic inference: exploration of 35 years of practice

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent methodological development in phylogenetic inference has focused predominantly on molecular data. However, renewed interest in other data types, particularly morphological data, has followed from the increased recognition of the power of total evidence and tip‐dating approaches, including fossil data, for inference of time‐scaled trees ...

Allometric equations for estimating biomass and carbon stocks of on-farm bamboo species in the agricultural landscapes of Kenya

Advances in Bamboo Science
The accurate estimation of above-ground biomass is critical for characterizing ecosystem function and accounting for carbon stocks. Cost-effective estimation of carbon stocks is required to understand the role of bamboo in climate change mitigation and ...

Allometric Equations for Predicting Above-ground Biomass of Tamarix in the Lower Colorado River Basin [PDF]

, 2012
Allometric equations are essential for quantitative study of aboveground biomass. The paper presents an effort in acquisition and validation of allometric equation for salt cedar (Tamarix spp.), a species that has been criticized for its invasion and ...

Clinical Validation of a QSP Model for ISB 2001, a Trispecific T Cell Engager to Support Optimal FIH Study Design in RRMM Patients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ISB 2001 is a trispecific antibody that binds to two tumor‐associated antigens (TAA), CD38 and BCMA, and crosslinks to CD3 on T cells resulting in T cell‐mediated cytotoxicity of tumor cells expressing these TAAs. ISB 2001 is currently being tested in relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients in the first‐in‐human (FIH) TRIgnite‐1 ...

Nonlinear Allometric Equation for Crop Response to Soil Salinity

Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2015
Crop response to soil salinity has been extensively studied, from empirical works to modelling approach, being described by different equations, first as a piecewise linear model. The equation employed can differ with actual response, causing miscalculation in practical situations, particularly at the higher extremes of the curve.

Allometric equations for sapling stages of three mangrove species in Real, Quezon Province, Philippines [PDF]

, 2012
The limited number of available site-specific and species-wise allometric regression equations that determine biomass estimates of forest ecosystems affect the reliability of data used in addressing global climate change issues. It is therefore necessary

Characterization of Lysosomal Hydrolases and Transporters and Their Age‐Dependent Variability: Relevance to Drug Metabolism and Transport of Small Molecule and Biologic Drugs

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Lysosomes play a key role in the accumulation, catabolism, and transport of endogenous and exogenous metabolites and proteins and are involved in drug metabolism and prodrug activation. However, the protein abundance and interindividual variability of lysosomal drug‐metabolizing enzymes and transporters (DMETs) remain underexplored.
