Food‐solicitation displays in nestling birds: still begging for answers

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nestling begging is a key model for understanding animal communication and parent–offspring conflict. Dynamic begging displays are often interpreted as costly, honest signals of need, with honesty maintained by viability costs, as proposed in Godfray's influential signalling model.

Extending the hyper‐logistic model to the random setting: New theoretical results with real‐world applications

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
We develop a full randomization of the classical hyper‐logistic growth model by obtaining closed‐form expressions for relevant quantities of interest, such as the first probability density function of its solution, the time until a given fixed population is reached, and the population at the inflection point.

A Methodological Pathway for Supporting the Transition From Theory to Practice in Action‐Oriented Research for Transformative Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over recent decades, action‐oriented research has gained prominence in co‐producing actionable knowledge to drive transformative change toward sustainability. However, further methodological developments are needed to support the transition to the application phase of such knowledge.

Fetal aortic morphometry by echocardiography: reproducibility study using stringent criteria and standardized nomenclature

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To establish and assess the reproducibility of standardized echocardiographic nomenclature and the protocol for comprehensive evaluation of fetal aortic morphology. Methods This was a prospective cohort study of fetuses with a normal three‐vessel branching pattern of the aortic arch, evaluated from 18–40 weeks' gestation at a single ...

Herbivore and mesocarnivore carcasses trigger divergent short‐term changes in soil properties

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Scavengers reshape nutrient cycles in soils under carrion. Compared to herbivore carcasses, smaller but longer‐lasting carnivore remains boost nutrient levels and microbial activity in dry soils. Abstract Animal corpses act as pulses of organic matter (OM) and serve a key zoogeochemical role by providing localized nutrient inputs to soils and thereby ...

A method to estimate actual infrastructure‐induced mortality by integrating hierarchical sources of imperfect detection

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Human infrastructures are among the most impactful wildlife threats. Although estimates of animal mortality by these structures exist over a given period, they typically do not account for several levels of imperfect detection (i.e. difference between recorded and true mortality).

Microbiota Signatures in Early Life and Their Association With Food Allergy: A Systematic Review

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food allergy (FA) is increasing worldwide, and early life may be a critical window for immune training. We systematically reviewed observational human studies linking early‐life microbiota (infant, maternal, environmental, or extraintestinal) profiled using culture‐based and/or culture‐independent methods (including sequencing‐based approaches)

Incretin‐Based Therapies as Cardiometabolic Interventions: Outcome Hierarchy, Receptor‐Network Pharmacology and Phenotype‐Based Clinical Positioning

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Incretin‐based pharmacotherapy was initially developed to improve glucose‐dependent insulin secretion and glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes, but its clinical interpretation has expanded substantially with cardiovascular outcome trials, kidney outcome data, obesity studies and next‐generation polyagonist development.

Emerging locally delivered antimicrobial and immunomodulatory approaches for the prevention/treatment of peri‐implant diseases

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Peri‐implant diseases are dysbiosis‐mediated inflammatory disorders that occur in susceptible hosts. Antimicrobials and immunomodulatory agents therefore might be pertinent as adjunctive measures in the treatment of such disorders. The aim of this narrative review was to examine the existing evidence and assess the effectiveness of emerging ...
