Artificial Intelligence in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Applications, Challenges, and Future Directions

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

Impact of live barriers on soil erosion in the Pairumani sub-catchment, Bolivia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Process-based soil erosion models, such as the European Soil Erosion Model (EUROSEM), have the potential for the extrapolation to the catchment scale of plot scale investigations into the effectiveness of soil conservation practices.

A Return to Normality: A Descriptive Qualitative Interview Study Exploring the Patient Experience of Gout Flare Resolution

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Although the definition of a gout flare is well established, the state of gout flare resolution has not yet been defined. This study aimed to explore patients’ experiences and perceptions of gout flare resolution. Methods Semistructured interviews were conducted with 24 people with gout, guided by open‐ended questions exploring their ...

Disentangling the Roles of Microbial Traits and Mineral Protection in Regulating Temperature Sensitivity of Soil Carbon Decomposition in Eroded and Depositional Agricultural Soils

open access: yesEarth's Future
The temperature sensitivity of soil organic carbon decomposition (Q10) governs the fate of soil carbon under global warming. Although erosion redistributes soil carbon at scales comparable to the terrestrial carbon sink, how erosion reshapes Q10 across ...
