A Systematic Review to Summarize and Critically Appraise Existing Phenotype Libraries Using Electronic Health Records [PDF]
ABSTRACT Purpose Pharmacoepidemiology and population health studies using electronic health care records (EHRs) must define study variables through available electronic data. These variables are operationalized through phenotypes, which are a defined set of criteria used to identify specific traits or medical conditions.

Abstract Introduction Forest fragmentation and defaunation are major drivers of biodiversity loss in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, where 70–90% of tree species depend on animal‐mediated seed dispersal. Reintroduction of large frugivores, such as cracids, is being used to restore species populations and lost ecological functions.

ABSTRACT Plants dispersed by visually oriented frugivores may enhance fruit detection through bicolored displays. Using manipulative experiments, I show that higher proportions of unripe fruits, rather than bicolored display alone, increase frugivory.

The new technique, by exploiting and modifying the partition coefficients of various molecules in immiscible solvents, makes it possible to obtain olive oils rich in polyphenols with outstanding characteristics. Moreover, the extension of this technique allows the transfer of polyphenols present in vegetation water into any lipid matrix, such as seed ...

A New Species of Myriopus (Heliotropiaceae) From Brazil
ABSTRACT A new species of Myriopus (Heliotropiaceae), Myriopus chrysocalyx J.I.M. Melo & L.G. Sá, hitherto recorded for the Brazilian Northeastern is described and illustrated. Myriopus chrysocalyx can be readily recognized by its branches strigose to villous, and, mainly, for presenting leaf blade chartaceous to subfleshy, congested inflorescences, a ...

The review critically evaluated and compared the selected superfruit phytochemistry, their bioactive composition and the key health benefits majorly emphasizing the antioxidant potential. It has highlighted the translational challenges in formulating functional foods by addressing the issues related to delivery system, bioavailability mechanism and the

Abstract While the far Western Tropical Pacific is known for interannual variability, we find intraseasonal variability (ISV) actually dominates surface chlorophyll (SChl) fluctuations, explaining >30% of variance. The Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) acts as the key driver through three mechanisms: (a) positive MJO phase vertical mixing (enhanced winds

Abstract Premise We examined the African arid corridor (AAC) disjunction pattern of vascular plants between northeastern and southwestern Africa in the context of geological and climatic events since the late Miocene. We developed a phylogenetic and biogeographical framework for the arid‐adapted genus Sesamothamnus (Pedaliaceae), a classic example of ...

Viburnum laterale, a poorly known species endemic to southeastern China, is rediscovered after nearly a century and reassessed using integrated morphological observations and molecular phylogenetic analyses. Newly documented reproductive traits and multilocus phylogenies place this taxon within Viburnum sect.
