JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.Chronic low back pain in patients without advanced disc degeneration is associated with gut microbiome dysbiosis, marked by reduced microbial diversity and altered bacterial composition. These findings support a gut–disk axis in which impaired gut barrier integrity and systemic inflammation may contribute to disc inflammation, nociceptive fiber ...

Functional and Phylogenetic Implications of Canopy Mesophication in Temperate Hardwood Forests
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Mesophication describes the shifting of forests fire‐adapted systems to those dominated shaded‐adapted species, but the functional underpinnings of forest mesophication have received less quantitative testing. Using 20th century legacy datasets of changing forest composition in Wisconsin, USA, we characterized broad declines in drought tolerance, fire ...
