Modeling localized deer removal strategies for managing chronic wasting disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We used an agent‐based model developed for chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Midwestern white‐tailed deer to assess localized deer removal strategies and how local conditions affect management outcomes. Parcel‐based and ring culling were most effective at reducing CWD prevalence and persistence, and transmission was always greater at greater deer ...

Linking distribution and return‐on‐investment models to optimize woody management for prairie grouse in Nebraska

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We modeled prairie grouse abundance across Nebraska and projected future woody encroachment to estimate population losses. By combining predicted gains from woody treatments with avoided losses and treatment costs, we mapped return on investment to identify areas for woody treatments that maximize benefits to greater prairie‐chickens and sharp‐tailed ...

ABSTRACT Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a major complication in women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We aimed to develop and externally validate an early postoperative risk score to identify EOC patients at increased risk of VTE after debulking surgery.

FOXC1: A Key Transcription Factor of VSMC‐Derived Foam Cell Formation in Atherosclerotic Plaque Instability

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The instability of atherosclerotic plaques, particularly intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH), drives life‐threatening cardiovascular events, a process in which vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC)‐derived foam cells play a significant role. We aim to identify key biomarkers associated with VSMC‐derived foam cells and IPH by analyzing data from human ...

Artificial Voices, Real Causes: The Dilemma of Virtual Influencer‐Driven Brand Activism

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brands are more frequently adopting virtual influencers (VIs) to lead activism campaigns. However, little is known about when and how such activism effectively drives consumer engagement. This research, in Study 1, examines 14,464 Instagram posts from 18 diverse VIs using large‐scale analytics to assess engagement intensity and the dynamics of
