Association Between the Planetary Health Diet Index and Chronic Kidney Disease Prevalence and Mortality: An Analysis of NHANES 2005-2018. [PDF]
Food Sci NutrAdherence to the Planetary Health Diet Index (PHDI) was associated with lower CKD prevalence, improved kidney function, and reduced CKD‐related mortality. Protective effects emerged only after exceeding specific PHDI thresholds. Nuts and seeds, non‐starchy vegetables, and legumes consistently reduced CKD prevalence, and nut intake additionally lowered ...

Do Extended Reality Interventions Benefit Patients Undergoing Elective Cardiac Surgical and Interventional Procedures? A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. [PDF]
J Clin NursABSTRACT Background Extended reality (XR) interventions have the potential to benefit patients undergoing elective cardiac surgical and interventional procedures. However, there are no systematic reviews with meta‐analyses to guide clinical care. Aim To critically evaluate the evidence on the effectiveness of XR interventions on patient anxiety and ...

American Journal of Botany, Volume 110, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023 Abstract Premise Paubrasilia echinata (common names, pau brasil, brazilwood) is the national tree of Brazil and an endangered species endemic to the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Over its wide distribution of 2000 km, its leaflets morphology exhibits extensive plasticity.

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 11, Issue 5, September-October 2023., 2023 Abstract Premise Field images are important sources of information for research in the natural sciences. However, images that lack photogrammetric scale bars, including most iNaturalist observations, cannot yield accurate trait measurements. We introduce FieldPrism, a novel system of photogrammetric markers, QR codes, and software to automate the ...

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 11, Issue 5, September-October 2023., 2023 Abstract Premise Quantitative plant traits play a crucial role in biological research. However, traditional methods for measuring plant morphology are time consuming and have limited scalability. We present LeafMachine2, a suite of modular machine learning and computer vision tools that can automatically extract a base set of leaf traits from digital ...

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 11, Issue 5, September-October 2023., 2023 Abstract Premise Imaging technologies that capture three‐dimensional (3D) variation in floral morphology at micro‐ and nano‐resolutions are increasingly accessible. In herkogamous flowers, such as those of Theobroma cacao, structural barriers between anthers and stigmas represent bottlenecks that restrict pollinator size and access to reproductive ...

Maternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 19, Issue 3, July 2023., 2023 We examined what changes would be required of the diet of lactating mothers in rural Western Kenya to align with the EAT‐Lancet reference diet and considered the role of food cost in dietary patterns. Although average gram intake of food groups among lactating mothers in this population appeared to align with the EAT‐Lancet reference diet, it masked ...

Advanced Science, Volume 10, Issue 12, April 26, 2023., 2023 The study shows that a fraction of LNP‐mRNA that is cell‐endocytosed can be sent to other cells via the secretion of extracellular vesicles (EVs). LNPs transform these EVs as functional extensions to distribute therapeutic mRNA between cells.Importantly, EVs can be isolated such as from cardiac progenitor cells (CPC‐EVs), and thus utilized for mRNA ...

Systematic Entomology, Volume 47, Issue 1, Page 13-35, January 2022., 2022 We employ phylogenomic markers (UCEs) to reconstruct the most extensively sampled phylogeny to date for the ecologically dominant leaf‐cutting ant genus Atta, the major herbivore of the New World tropics. The ancestor of Atta arose 8.5 Ma in the North/Central America + NW South America range, and its descendant species rapidly radiated into Neotropical
