Integrating Urban Expansion and Flood Risk: A Spatial Assessment of Impervious Surface Growth and Floodplain Exposure in Mecklenburg County (2011–2021)

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban expansion significantly impacts flood risk, particularly in rapidly growing areas where impervious surfaces exacerbate surface runoff. This study examines spatial patterns of urban growth and their effects on flood exposure in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, from 2011 to 2021.

Successional and native forests predict the occurrence and infection status of Chagas disease vectors in Panama

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Findings here show that successional forest predicts greater kissing bug infestation risk in palm trees, whereas native forest predicts lower kissing bug occurrence but greater infection with T. cruzi. These insights can guide land use planning towards vegetation management practices that help minimize T. cruzi transmission risks for rural communities.

Social Determinants of Sepsis Mortality in the United States: A Retrospective, Epidemiologic Analysis

World Medical &Health Policy, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 823-830, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Sepsis is a leading cause of mortality in the United States, with over 350,000 deaths annually, yet the contribution of neighborhood‐level social determinants of health (SDoH) remains underexplored. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 4.4 million hospitalized patients with sepsis, identified using ICD‐10 codes, leveraging de‐identified ...

Predictions of southern migration timing in coastal sharks under future ocean warming

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Projected redistribution of marine species due to ocean warming may undermine current conservation efforts. Yet, there have been few studies on how ocean warming may alter migration timing. Across 5 years of acoustic telemetry data (2018–2022), we determined environmental drivers of southward migration timing for 6 migratory shark species from

Bright spots for advancing ecological understanding and conservation decision‐making

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract A lot can be learned by studying bright spots—defined as unexpected positive outcomes. In fields like public health, education, and oncology, identifying factors behind bright spots reveals previously unknown drivers of success that can be replicated elsewhere.

Is parvovirus B19 infection upsurge in 2023–2024 associated with adverse pregnancy outcome?

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 307-313, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective A surge in parvovirus B19 infections has been reported in 2023–2024 across Europe and the USA, raising concerns about the associated perinatal risks. The aim of this study was to compare perinatal outcomes following maternal parvovirus B19 infection during the 2023–2024 period with those from a pre‐2023 cohort.
