Land Use and Transportation Costs in the Brazilian Amazon [PDF]
In this paper we put forth some empirical evidence from the Brazilian Amazon that the relationship between roads and land clearing may be much more complex than the conventional wisdom implies.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Paternal isodisomy of chromosome 15 (iUPD15) is a recognized cause of Angelman syndrome (AS), accounting for approximately 2%–5% of cases. Additionally, another recognized consequence of iUPD is the unmasking of autosomal recessive disorders. However, reports of recessive disorders resulting from iUPD15 remain scarce in the literature.

Genetic Variation in ADHD‐Related Risk Genes in an Indigenous Population of the Amazon
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Attention‐Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a highly heritable neurodevelopmental disorder; however, its genetic architecture remains poorly explored in Indigenous populations. This study aimed to analyze and characterize genetic variation in 11 genes (ADGRL3, CDH8, DCC, DUSP6, FOXP1, FOXP2, MEF2C, PCDH7, SEMA6D, SORCS3, and ST3GAL3 ...

Deforestation, Growth and Agglomeration Effects: Evidence From Agriculture in the Brazilian Amazon [PDF]
The role of population growth and migration has been emphasized as a key variable to explain deforestation and land conversion in developing countries. In early studies a ‘Malthusian’ process is put forward to associate the growing demand for resources ...

The Role of Glutamatergic and Dopaminergic Genes in Resistant Schizophrenia: A Systematic Review
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Psychosis is a heterogeneous disorder, with approximately one‐third of patients experiencing treatment resistance, predominantly among individuals diagnosed with Schizophrenia. Treatment‐resistant schizophrenia (TRS) may stem from a distinct biological signature, involving abnormalities in the dopaminergic and glutamatergic systems.

Genetic Variants of Na+,K+‐ATPase Associated With Neurological Disorders: A Systematic Review
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Neurological disorders encompass a wide range of severe symptoms and manifestations, many of which are associated with genetic variants that affect ionic homeostasis. Na+,K+‐ATPase, a transmembrane enzyme responsible for maintaining electrochemical gradients in cells, plays a crucial role in neuronal excitability and brain function.

Translation and Cross‐Cultural Adaptation of the Chronic Rhinosinusitis Control Test for Global Use
International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction The Chronic Rhinosinusitis Control Test (CRCT) is a patient‐reported outcome measure (PROM) written in English that is psychometrically validated to measure chronic rhinosinusitis control. Because the availability of translated PROMs is a driver of data equity—collection of data that is fair and generally representative—our ...

Methacrylated Gelatin and Graphene Oxide Hybrid Hydrogels Composed‐Bioinks for 3D Tissue Engineering
Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.Bioinks made from hydrogels, such as methacrylated gelatin (GelMA), serve as the base material for bioprinted tissues, offering versatility and biocompatibility for a range of applications. Additional components however are still needed to improve functionality and mechanical stability of hydrogels. One of these components is graphene oxide (GO), added

In Vivo Nb4C3Tx MXene‐Assisted Photothermal Therapy of Melanoma in Mice
Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.Nb4C3Tx MXene converts pulsed 1064 nm irradiation into localized heat, producing concentration‐ and time‐dependent melanoma cell killing in vitro and suppressing tumor growth in mice. Histology reveals extensive tumor damage, macrophage‐associated material clearance, and no detectable persistent deposits in examined visceral organs, supporting Nb4C3Tx ...
