Multicenter Clinical Comparison Between Anti‐NXP2 and Anti‐TIF1‐γ Antibody‐Positive Myositis, and Analysis of the Clinical Significance of Anti‐NXP2 Antibody Titers in Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We aimed to measure anti‐nuclear matrix protein 2 antibody (anti‐NXP2) titers in patients with anti‐NXP2‐positive idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, investigate whether these titers are associated with clinical manifestations, malignancy risk, and treatment response, and compare the clinical and serological features between anti‐NXP2‐positive

From foraging to decomposition: Large vertebrates as biotic drivers of trace element cycling across landscapes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We highlight an overlooked pathway in ecosystem functioning: the role of animal carcass decomposition in trace element cycling. By linking animal life cycles to landscape‐scale processes, we explain how large animals redistribute scarce elements and influence spatial heterogeneity, with implications for ecosystem functioning and restoration.

Molar incisor hypomineralisation: current knowledge and practice

International Dental Journal, EarlyView., 2020
Background Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a common developmental dental condition that presents in childhood. Areas of poorly formed enamel affect one or more first permanent molars and can cause opacities on the anterior teeth. MIH presents a variety of challenges for the dental team as well as functional and social impacts for affected ...

Megafaunal engineering in the tropical rainforest: African forest elephants (Loxodonta cyclotis) reduce avian species richness but elevate functional diversity

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our paper investigates the crucial role of African forest elephants (Loxodonta cyclotis) on the functioning of rainforest ecosystems, through the lens of bird communities. It reveals that the critically endangered megaherbivores are inextricably linked to survival of another key group imperilled by land‐use change: understory invertivore birds ...

The Big Picture: Religion and Global Comparative History

Journal of Religious History, EarlyView.
This article considers what a ‘big picture’ approach to global religious history might look like, and in particular the implications of deploying the comparative method across much larger stretches of time and space than historians normally attend to. It will begin by reflecting on the epistemological moods that have hindered this project to date, the ...

The Coloniality of Data: Police Databases and the Rationalization of Surveillance from Colonial Vietnam to the Modern Carceral State

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tracing the early adoption of computer gang databases by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Los Angeles Police Department in the 1980s to the deployment of computationally‐assisted surveillance during the Vietnam War, this paper uses a genealogical approach to compare surveillance technologies developed across the arc of ...

Drivers of Mouse Plagues: Exceptional Rainfall Following Prolonged Drought Triggers Mouse Plagues in Southeastern Australia

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study identified a specific sequence of an extended drought followed by exceptional rainfall as a necessary precursor for mouse plagues in southeastern Australia. Long‐term rainfall anomalies interact with ecological processes to reset population dynamics, creating conditions that support rapid mouse population growth following periods of ...

Persistence of the Positive Impact of Legislative Strategies to Constrain Multinational Corporate Tax Avoidance in Light of the ‘PwC Tax Scandal’

Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of Australia's multinational anti‐avoidance legislation and diverted profits tax on restricting corporate tax avoidance (CTA) among foreign significant global entities (SGEs) operating in Australia, in light of the Price Waterhouse Coopers (PwC) tax scandal.

Artificial Intelligence in Intraoral Scanning: A Narrative Review

Australian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intraoral scanning (IOS) enables the acquisition of three‐dimensional surface models of dental and oral structures, supporting diagnosis, treatment planning and digital workflows. However, many processing steps remain operator‐dependent and time‐consuming. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) with intraoral scanning (IOS) represents

Underwriting and Substitution: Australian Peacebuilding in Bougainville and Solomon Islands, 1997–2021

Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Australia's two largest Melanesian engagements ended differently. This article compares the Bougainville peace process with the Regional Assistance Mission to Solomon Islands (RAMSI) and distinguishes two modes of engagement. Underwriting funds settlements that domestic actors have negotiated, leaving authority in local hands; substitution ...
