The potential effects of climate change on amphibian distribution, range fragmentation and turnover in China

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
Many studies predict that climate change will cause species movement and turnover, but few studies have considered the effect of climate change on range fragmentation for current species and/or populations. We used MaxEnt to predict suitable habitat, fragmentation and turnover for 134 amphibian species in China under 40 future climate change scenarios ...

Arthroscopic treatment of tibial intercondylar eminence fractures in skeletally immature patients with bioabsorbable nails

open access: yesLa Pediatria Medica e Chirurgica, 2022
Fractures involving tibial eminence caused by ACL avulsion lesion most frequently occur paediatric patients. Satisfactory reduction in displaced fractures cannot be achieved through conservative treatment, while arthroscopy-assisted fixation technique ...

An efficient method for noninvasive prenatal diagnosis of fetal trisomy 13, trisomy 18, and trisomy 21.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundMolecular size determination of circulating free fetal DNA in maternal plasma is an important detection method for noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT). The fetal DNA molecule is the primary factor determining the overall performance of NIPT and

Synergistic effects of climate change and habitat fragmentation on species range shifts and metapopulation persistence [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers of Biogeography, 2018
The effects of climate and landscape change on biodiversity are relatively well described. However, there is limited understanding of the interactions between these processes, which generally operate at differing spatial scales. My objective was to evaluate the synergistic effects of climate and landscape changes on persistence and range shift dynamics.

AggLb Is the Largest Cell-Aggregation Factor from Lactobacillus paracasei Subsp. paracasei BGNJ1-64, Functions in Collagen Adhesion, and Pathogen Exclusion In Vitro. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Eleven Lactobacillus strains with strong aggregation abilities were selected from a laboratory collection. In two of the strains, genes associated with aggregation capability were plasmid located and found to strongly correlate with collagen binding. The

Ecological value enhancement through Acropora coral transplantation in a pristine reef area in Wakatobi [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
Coral transplantation has evolved from a reef restoration tool into a proactive strategy for enhancing reef ecosystem value, particularly in marine tourism zones. This study aimed to assess the survival and growth performance of Acropora sp.
