Potential for conflict between urban coyotes and people experiencing unsheltered homelessness

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Across North America, both unsheltered homelessness and human–coyote (Canis latrans) conflict are increasing, but the relationship between these phenomena has not been thoroughly explored. We synthesize literature‐based evidence with anecdotal observations that occurred during a 15‐year study of coyotes in Edmonton, Canada, to describe three likely ...

Radical Innovation Validation: Delivering Value in Radical Innovation Development

open access: yesR&D Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Radical innovation (RI) offers significant benefits, but the challenges encountered during its implementation can be formidable. Recent literature suggests the use of practices such as prototyping, experimentation, piloting, and demonstration to address these challenges through small‐scale, iterative approaches.

Clinical Echinococcosis

open access: yesAnnals of Surgery, 1975
In 221 patients (0.48% of hospital admissions) with hydatid disease (122 female and 99 males), 81% had single and 19% multiple organs involved. Lungs, liver and spleen as single sites of echinococcosis together represented 83.24% of cases and the liver alone represented 95.24% of instances with multiple organ involvement.

Albendazole Treatment of Alveolar Echinococcosis in a Trial Based on a Cross Sectional Ultrasound Study in Kyrgyzstan

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Human alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a potentially fatal parasitic disease. In the low‐resource country of Kyrgyzstan, it is essential to develop protocols to manage the large number of AE cases being diagnosed. Methods A randomised trial was undertaken to explore the hypothesis that subjects with small AE lesions, detected by ...

Optimizing Tuberculosis Incidence Prediction: A Systematic Review of Hybrid Modeling Approaches and Machine Learning Techniques

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 4, December 2026.
This systematic review and meta‐regression compared the performance of statistical, machine learning, and hybrid models in forecasting tuberculosis (TB) incidence. The study followed PRISMA 2020 guidelines and included studies published between 2010 and 2024. Hybrid models, particularly ARIMA‐LSTM, demonstrated superior forecasting accuracy compared to
