Integrating Multiple‐Covariate Distance Sampling and Habitat Modeling to Inform Conservation of the Asian Houbara in Central Iran

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We combined multiple‐covariate distance sampling (MCDS) with habitat modeling to estimate the abundance and habitat associations of the vulnerable Asian houbara (Chlamydotis macqueenii) in central Iran. Line‐transect surveys in spring 2022 yielded an estimated density of 0.53 individuals/km2 (~5293 birds), with nearly identical results from ...

Targeted Next‐Generation Sequencing of the Leptin‐Melanocortin Pathway in Severe Obesity

Obesity, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 499-511, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Pathogenic variants in five established leptin‐melanocortin pathway genes (LEP, LEPR, MC4R, PCSK1, POMC) are associated with severe early‐onset obesity and are targets for emerging treatments. However, these variants are rare in these patients, suggesting the involvement of additional genes interacting with this pathway. Methods Next‐
