Developing a macroecology for human‐altered ecosystems
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.

Organisms' energy requirements increase with body mass, leading to larger home range areas and lower population density. Previous research has highlighted the differential scaling of these variables in mammals, where species with large home ranges have higher density than expected due to increased home range overlap. Here we investigate this phenomenon

Pre‐industrial land‐use limits contemporary shrub encroachment in the French Alps
Shrub encroachment has become a global phenomenon in recent decades. While global warming in the Arctic is often cited as the primary cause, human‐managed mountain regions have experienced intense historical land‐use that may also play a considerable role.

Abstract Aims Inflammation plays a critical role in both the development and progression of heart failure (HF), which is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, the causality between specific inflammation‐related proteins and HF risk remains unclear.

Abstract Objective Inclusion and exclusion criteria of clinical trials for seizures aim to select representative participants with a high enough seizure frequency to evaluate the efficacy of treatment in a relatively short double‐blind period. To inform the selection of seizure frequency‐based inclusion criteria, we evaluated the association between ...

Abstract Objective There are several clinical and research applications for determining the amount of brain tissue resected after epilepsy surgery; however, manual segmentation of postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is imprecise and time‐consuming.

Abstract Objective Epilepsy affects ~1% of the global population and often requires lifelong antiseizure medication (ASM) therapy. Valproic acid (VPA) is a commonly prescribed first‐line ASM, yet only approximately half of patients achieve sustained seizure freedom. Treatment selection remains largely empirical.
