Modulatory effects of intravesical P2X2/3 purinergic receptor inhibition on lower urinary tract electromyographic properties and voiding function of female rats with moderate or severe spinal cord injury. [PDF]

open access: yesBJU Int, 2019
To evaluate the role that intravesical P2X2/3 purinergic receptors (P2X2/3Rs) play in early and advanced neurogenic lower urinary tract (LUT) dysfunction after contusion spinal cord injury (SCI) in female rats.

Water, Water Everywhere, but Every Drop Unique: Challenges in the Science to Understand the Role of Contaminants of Emerging Concern in the Management of Drinking Water Supplies

open access: yesGeoHealth, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Abstract The protection and management of water resources continues to be challenged by multiple and ongoing factors such as shifts in demographic, social, economic, and public health requirements. Physical limitations placed on access to potable supplies include natural and human‐caused factors such as aquifer depletion, aging infrastructure ...

Extensive regional variation in the phenology of insects and their response to temperature across North America

open access: yesEcology, Volume 104, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Climate change models often assume similar responses to temperatures across the range of a species, but local adaptation or phenotypic plasticity can lead plants and animals to respond differently to temperature in different parts of their range. To date, there have been few tests of this assumption at the scale of continents, so it is unclear

Tussle for space: The politics of mock‐compliance with global financial standards in developing countries

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 328-345, April 2023., 2023
As efforts to harmonize policies globally intensify, developing countries increasingly face pressures to adopt international standards. Yet, we know little about the circumstances under which developing countries manage to circumvent such pressures, or about their strategies to maintain policy space.

Temporal variation in translocated Isle Royale wolf diet

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
We analyzed wolf diet from scats in relation to optimal foraging. We found 62% of remains as beaver, 26% as moose, and 12% as other (birds, smaller mammals, and wolves). The contents of wolf scat changed over time. Wolf diet is plastic and responsive to temporal changes in prey acquisition cost as predicted by optimal foraging theory.

Understanding the Evolution of Smoke Mass Extinction Efficiency Using Field Campaign Measurements

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 49, Issue 18, 28 September 2022., 2022
Abstract Aerosol mass extinction efficiency (MEE) is a key aerosol property used to connect aerosol optical properties with aerosol mass concentrations. Using measurements of smoke obtained during the Fire Influence on Regional to Global Environments and Air Quality (FIREX‐AQ) campaign we find that mid‐visible smoke MEE can change by a factor of 2–3 ...

Environmental control for X‐ray nanotomography

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, Volume 29, Issue 5, Page 1223-1231, September 2022., 2022
An environmental control system for in situ or operando nanotomography is presented. It allows controlling the sample temperature from room temperature to 850°C under controlled gas compositions, and a 3D isotropic resolution of sub‐20 nm at a temperature of 600°C is demonstrated.The acquisition speed and spatial resolution of X‐ray nanotomography have

Rasch Analysis for Instrument Development: Why, When, and How?

open access: yesCBE - Life Sciences Education, 2016
Rasch psychometric techniques can be used to guide the development and analysis of tests and surveys. Rasch techniques also can be used to explain the meaning of a test score or survey score. Of great interest to researchers and instructors is that Rasch

Analyzing Likert Data

open access: yesJournal of Extension, 2012
This article provides information for Extension professionals on the correct analysis of Likert data. The analyses of Likert-type and Likert scale data require unique data analysis procedures, and as a result, misuses and/or mistakes often occur.
