Modeling mammal response to fire based on species’ traits
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Fire has shaped ecological communities worldwide for millennia, but impacts of fire on individual species are often poorly understood. We performed a meta‐analysis to predict which traits, habitat, or study variables and fire characteristics affect how mammal species respond to fire.

Global warming facilitates the nesting of the loggerhead turtle on the Mediterranean coast of Spain
Animal Conservation, Volume 26, Issue 3, Page 365-380, June 2023., 2023 Average summer sand temperature (July 20th–August 10th) at 40 cm deep in Spanish Mediterranean beaches, as reconstructed from air temperature at El Prat beach, has increased from 1950 to 2019 (top figure). As a result, the duration of the viable nesting window for loggerhead turtles (bottom figure) has also increased and the thermal environment has ...

Bayesian models for spatially explicit interactions between neighbouring plants
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 12, Page 2788-2798, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Interactions between neighbouring plants drive population and community dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems. Understanding these interactions is critical for both fundamental and applied ecology. Spatial approaches to model neighbour interactions are necessary, as interaction strength depends on the distance between neighbouring plants.

The Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 564-574, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Rich in raw materials, the state of Guerrero, Mexico, is one of the main enclaves of opium production, mineral extraction, and a focus for the multiplication of armed actors in Latin America, which, together with the overlapping of counterinsurgent violence in the past, post‐colonial violence and the militarization of the policies of the so ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 15, Issue 5, Page 594-605, September 2022., 2022 Our results confirm E. bazae as a well‐differentiated species and show that its two disjunct populations, regarded as subspecies, are genetically differentiated and should be treated as independent management units. Climate models under two future emission scenarios suggest an increase of the area climatically suitable.

Journal of Field Ornithology, Volume 92, Issue 4, Page 492-505, December 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Demographic studies of many bird species are challenging because their nests are cryptic, resulting in few nests being found. To maximize statistical power, methods are needed that minimize disturbance while yielding as much information per nest as possible. One way to meet these objectives is to use miniature thermal data loggers to precisely

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 57, Issue 5, Page 710-719, May 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Objectives To derive accurate estimates of perinatal survival in pregnancies with and without a prenatal diagnosis of vasa previa based on a systematic review of the literature and meta‐analysis. Methods A search of MEDLINE, EMBASE and The Cochrane Library was performed to review relevant citations reporting on the perinatal outcomes of ...

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 678-684, August 2020., 2020 Perioperative treatment with omega‐3 fatty acids (n‐3 FA) does not confer an overall survival benefit in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery, and neither is it associated with an increased efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy. Clinicians should be careful when making any recommendations regarding the use of n‐3 FA oral nutritional supplements ...

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 416-423, June 2020., 2020 The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, dichotomized at 2·25, was strongly associated with Mandard tumour regression grade in patients who had neoadjuvant chemotherapy for oesophageal adenocarcinoma. The systemic inflammatory response may offer a novel therapeutic target for patients at risk of poor response.

BJS Open, Volume 3, Issue 6, Page 767-776, December 2019., 2019 A positive circumferential resection margin (CRM) has been shown to be an adverse prognostic indicator after oesophagectomy for adenocarcinoma. Clinical tumour status, tumour volume, poor differentiation, lack of response following chemotherapy and radiological assessment of invasion can be used to predict CRM positivity in oesophageal adenocarcinoma ...
