Projected Warming of the Southern Ocean Disrupts Embryonic Development and Hatch Timing in Antarctic Fish

Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
Embryos are particularly sensitive to thermal challenge. Antarctic fish embryos raised at projected Southern Ocean temperatures hatch during the winter, have a high incidence of morphological abnormalities, have shorter body lengths, and express genes indicative of cellular stress.

Risk Aversion and Economic Policy Uncertainty Impacts on Investor Attention: Evidence From International Stock Markets Indices

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between economic policy uncertainty, risk aversion, and investors' attention for 15 equity indices across Asia, Europe, and North America. Our empirical results indicate that both risk aversion and economic uncertainty significantly increase the Google Search Volume across all equity indices.

ECCFP: A consecutive full pass‐based bioinformatic analysis for eccDNA identification from long‐read sequencing data

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
A new bioinformatics pipeline called ECCFP has been developed to improve the detection of extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) from long‐read sequencing data. ECCFP uses all consecutive full passes from individual reads for candidate eccDNA identification and consolidates candidate eccDNAs to generate accurate unique eccDNA.

Detection of Contaminants in Some Typical Mediterranean Fish: Anisakis Parasites and Heavy Metals

Sci
The Mediterranean Sea is recognized for its high biodiversity but is also a hotspot for pollution. In this study, fish samples of four native marine species were collected from wild catches to determine contaminants such as Anisakis parasites and heavy ...

Interventions for pre‐school children in foster care: A systematic review of the foster carer and system level outcomes from randomised controlled trials

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Children in foster care are at increased risk of experiencing cognitive, emotional and behavioural difficulties. There is a window of opportunity for early intervention associated with developmental sensitivity in the early years. Foster carers and the systems supporting them play a central role in intervention and support for the ...

Evaluating the Role of Analogies in Biochemistry Education: Lessons Learned From Pre‐ and Post‐Pandemic Dental Student Perceptions

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biochemistry forms the foundation for understanding biomolecules and molecular processes crucial to dental and oral biology. However, it is often perceived as a challenging subject for dental students with diverse educational backgrounds. Analogies are a pedagogical tool that helps explain new and abstract concepts in biochemistry.

Prevalence and Mechanisms of Sustained Force Production in the Musculature of the Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The southern alligator lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) exhibits prolonged mate‐holding behavior. This behavior maybe be underpinned by a phenomenon known as sustained force, observed in the jaw muscles of this species, in which the muscle fails to relax between subsequent contractions.

The Individual and Combined Effects of Warming and Atrazine on Lithobates pipiens Phenotypes: Implications for Frog Declines

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amphibians are the most threatened vertebrate class globally. Climate change, agrochemicals, and/or pathogens and parasites are implicated in contributing to amphibian declines, either singly or in combination. We investigated individual and combined effects of elevated temperatures and atrazine (2.0 μg/L) on Lithobates [formerly Rana] pipiens

Tagging Very Small Fish: Two Effective and Low Impact Methods

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Identifying individuals over time and across contexts is essential in many scientific fields. There are a variety of well‐established methods for uniquely marking individuals (e.g., visible implant elastomer, barcodes, paint). However, for some species, life history stages, and/or experiments, existing methods are not sufficient.

Does Mobile Money Adoption Improve Dietary Quality? Assessing Household and Individual Level Impacts in Cameroon

Journal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mobile money—a digital financial service—has proliferated in many developing countries. Owing to its ability to reduce transaction costs and allow even the poor to be financially included, it has been widely adopted. While a growing body of literature has examined its welfare effects, its effects on diet quality of households and individuals ...
