Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

A [3]Rotaxane Containing {Ti7Ga} Rings Linking CuII: Synthesis, Structure, and Spectroscopic Studies
Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Extended hybrid inorganic‐organic [2]‐ and [3]‐rotaxanes are reported based on heterometallic rings with threads that link CuII complexes; the crystal structures are reported, and the solution behavior is investigated by double electron electron resonance spectroscopy methods.

DISEASE AND GENETICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF FENNOSCANDIAN CERVIDS - A REVIEW
, 1998 Fennoscandia (Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark) is inhabited by many wild and/or semi-domesticated populations of cervids: moose (Alces alces), red deer (Cervus elaphus), roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), fallow deer (Dama dama), and reindeer (Rangifer

Developing a macroecology for human‐altered ecosystems
Ecography, EarlyView.Although anthropogenically‐induced ecological disruptions are fundamentally important in defining ecosystem properties, they are largely overlooked by macroecological theory. Anthropogenic disruptions and their effects are generally not comparable to one another, nor to disturbances that are part of natural disturbance regimes.

, 2014 We describe cervids as potential reservoir hosts of Babesia EU1 and B. divergens. Both babesial parasites were found in roe deer. Sequence analysis of 18S rRNA showed 99.7 % identity of roe deer Babesia EU1 with the human EU1 strain. B.

Ecography, EarlyView.Dynamic occupancy models are fundamental for understanding complex species recolonisation processes, as they allow the assessment of both colonisation and persistence probabilities over time. Using a dynamic occupancy model and a large‐scale multi‐year dataset on wolf presence collected in the Italian alpine region between 2014 and 2020, we analysed ...

What factors affect daily activity rythms in cervids?
, 2008 I reviewed the factors influencing the daily activity rhythms in cervids such as anatomical and physiological characteristics of the particular species, seasonal changes in quality and quantity of food or disturbances caused by the presence of the ...

Ecography, EarlyView.The abundance center hypothesis (ACH) posits that species abundance peaks at distribution centers; however, empirical support remains inconsistent. This study tested the generality of the ACH and investigated species traits as mediators of abundance–distance relationships.
