Timescales of Autogenic Noise in River Bedform Evolution and Stratigraphy

Geophysical Research Letters
Bedform evolution and preserved cross strata are known to respond to floods. However, it is unclear if autogenic dynamics mask the flood signal in bedform evolution and cross strata.

Holocene vegetation change and fire–plant diversity shifts in Mediterranean France

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Changes in fire activity are recognized as a major threat to biodiversity and vegetation communities across the Mediterranean Basin. However, long‐term fire–vegetation interactions remain poorly investigated. Here, we combine a high‐resolution charcoal record with pollen data from the “Étang des Aulnes” lake (southern France) to reconstruct ...

myo‐Inositol's role in laying hens’ active gastrointestinal microbiota: a strain comparison

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND myo‐Inositol (MI) is a cyclitol involved in cellular metabolism and phytate degradation, yet its influence on the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiota of laying hens remains poorly understood. This study investigated the effects of graded dietary MI supplementation on the active GIT microbial communities of two commercial laying ...

Protecting CEACAM1 Expression Prevents Diet‐Induced Metabolic Dysfunction and Hepatic Fibrosis in Male Mice

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective High‐fat diet represses Ceacam1 transcription via a PPARα‐mediated mechanism to cause insulin resistance before inflammation develops. The current study investigated whether mutating PPRE‐RXRα in Ceacam1 promoter prevents diet‐induced metabolic abnormalities and hepatic fibrosis in male C57BL6/J mice.

Ecosystem engineers and functional dominance: when species loss matters for ecosystem function

Oikos, EarlyView.
Understanding when and why species loss affects community function in natural communities remains an open question in ecology. Recent cross‐system analyses have shown that functional dominance is associated with whether species loss matters: in communities dominated by few high‐performing species, lost species contribute little to function.

Pre‐Extubation Low‐Dose Propofol in Pediatric Ear, Nose, and Throat Procedures: A Meta‐Analysis With Trial Sequential Analysis

Pediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Post‐extubation emergence agitation (EA) is common in pediatric ear, nose, and throat (ENT) procedures and may lead to serious complications. Aims To assess the efficacy of low‐dose propofol administered before extubation, compared with placebo, for preventing EA, using meta‐analysis with trial sequential analysis (TSA).

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.
