Testing a method for quantifying structural redundancy in ecological communities
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In ecological communities, some taxa contribute to ecosystem functioning in highly similar ways. When numerous taxa within a community contribute similarly, this might suggest a degree of functional redundancy, where the loss of one species may not impair ecosystem ...

Abstract Discourse around drug policy presents a stark contrast between policing and harm reduction models, sparking debates on the state's regulatory versus protective role. Canada is an ideal case to study drug policy models due to its global recognition as a leader in harm reduction alongside continued reliance on policing of drugs.

Residual permutation tests for feature importance in machine learning
Abstract Psychological research has traditionally relied on linear models to test scientific hypotheses. However, the emergence of machine learning (ML) algorithms has opened new opportunities for exploring variable relationships beyond linear constraints.

Is free trade good for renewable resources? Brander and Taylor redux
Abstract This paper generalizes the original Brander and Taylor model of open‐access renewable resource use and trade to address three common critiques. First, I introduce heterogeneity across agents in harvesting productivity to smooth out the model's extreme specialization patterns while maintaining its Ricardian structure and tractability. Second, I

CKAP4 Regulates ERS‐Induced Apoptosis in Osteoclasts Through FOXO3 in Periodontitis
CKAP4 promotes the transcription of PERK via FOXO3 in OCs, thereby facilitating ER stress‐induced apoptosis. In periodontitis, the reduction of CKAP4 in OCs leads to decreased OC apoptosis, which exacerbates alveolar bone resorption. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is a prevalent oral disease characterised by chronic inflammation and irreversible alveolar bone ...

This study identifies a link between periodontitis and CRC progression mediated by carnosine‐enriched circulating EVs. These EVs target the intestine and elevate tumour cell intracellular pH (pHi), which rescues lysosomal function. This process drives a transition from dysfunctional lysosomes to functional ones, promoting a high malignancy phenotype in
