Abstract Popular as aquarium fish, armored catfishes from South America (Pterygoplichthys spp.) have been introduced and become invasive in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. These ecosystem engineers can deplete basal resources (e.g., periphyton and detritus), with potential negative effects for native fauna. We studied the trophic ecology of

Determinants and Consequences of Budget Reallocations*
ABSTRACT We investigate the determinants and consequences of budget reallocations—that is, corrective changes to the budget made during the year. Using proprietary data from a large consumer goods manufacturer, we analyze the extent to which initial budgeting decisions drive reallocations. Examining this relationship is important because initial budget

PICT: A low‐cost, modular, open‐source camera trap system to study plant–insect interactions
Abstract Commercial camera traps (CTs) commonly used in wildlife studies have several technical limitations that restrict their scope of application. They are not easily customizable, unit prices sharply increase with image quality and importantly, they are not designed to record the activity of ectotherms such as insects. Those developed for the study

Abstract Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency (MSD, MIM#272200) is an ultra‐rare lysosomal storage disorder arising from mutations in the SUMF1 gene, which encodes the formylglycine‐generating enzyme (FGE). FGE is necessary for the activation of sulfatases, a family of enzymes that are involved in the degradation of sulfated substrates such as ...

This RCT compared intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) alone with IPC plus enoxaparin for 1 week after surgery in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for gastric or colorectal malignancy. Although VTE occurred in 4·8 per cent of the ICP‐alone group and 3·3 per cent of the ICP with enoxaparin ...

Modelling of cellular materials by a microsphere‐based material model
Abstract Metal foams are a very interesting class of cellular materials which, due to their structure, can be used both for lightweight construction and for the absorption of kinetic energy. They have a microheterogeneous structure, which makes it difficult to simulate these materials efficiently.
