The theory of island biogeography (TIB) remains contentious for microbes, as their immense dispersal potential and microscopic size may decouple diversity from classic isolation/area effects. We explicitly tested TIB scaling rules for soil bacteria and fungi across 20 oceanic islands using a rigorous multi‐scale framework that integrated high ...

The graphical abstract illustrates how smoking interacts with an MTR rs1805087 gene variant to promote insulin resistance and β‐cell dysfunction through alterations in the folate cycle. PCR–RFLP genotyping and machine‐learning analysis support an exploratory assessment linking these combined factors to increased Type 2 diabetes risk in susceptible ...

Abstract Objective The ketogenic diet (KD) is a high‐fat, low‐carbohydrate intervention widely used to treat drug‐resistant epilepsy, thought to reduce seizures through a combination of metabolic, neuronal, and microbiota‐dependent mechanisms. Additionally, recent studies suggest that the anticonvulsant effects of KD require the gut microbiota, with ...

Abstract Objective Psychoses of epilepsy (POE) affect up to 13% of patients with focal epilepsy. Whereas interictal risk factors are well documented, ictal correlates of POE remain poorly characterized. We hypothesized that an impairment of ictal consciousness on the Consciousness Seizure Scale (CSS), would be associated with POE.
