Non‐Invasive Triage of Bladder Outlet Obstruction and Detrusor Underactivity in Men With Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms: A Narrative Review and Conceptual Framework for Depth‐Aware Multimodal Transcutaneous Testing

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Differentiating bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) from detrusor underactivity (DU) remains a major unmet need in the management of lower urinary tract symptoms in men. Although pressure–flow urodynamics provide a definitive physiological classification, their invasiveness limits their widespread use.

No way back: decadal lack of functional recovery of a coralligenous community in a warming Mediterranean

Oikos, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic disturbances are degrading nature at a rate that exceeds its capacity to recover. While considerable research has focused on understanding ecosystem impacts, recovery processes remain comparatively overlooked, particularly in marine ecosystems, where long‐term data on how highly complex systems respond to disturbances are scarce.

Misperceptions of charismatic species' conservation status: Zoo visits and virtual exposure shape perceptions of extinction risk

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity loss is accelerating globally, yet species are not equally affected, and public perceptions of extinction risk often diverge from scientific assessments. Understanding what shapes public perceptions is critical for effective conservation communication, particularly in zoos, where many people encounter exotic and endangered ...

Accelerating the prioritisation of plant species with underexplored medicinal potential: The pm4mp (Phylogenetic Methods for Medicinal Plants) R package

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Medicinal plants used in ethnobotanical traditions to treat or prevent diseases have gained renewed interest for their largely untapped potential in drug discovery. In this study, we developed and tested novel methods to prioritise plant species based on their unexplored medicinal potential. By enabling researchers to target the most promising species,

Planting for healthy air: Urban biodiversity enhances natural chemical environments

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cities urgently need nature to improve public health, support biodiversity, and increase resilience to climate change. Yet not all green spaces offer the same benefits. In this study, we show that more diverse urban plantings create richer “chemical environments”; subtle, naturally scented atmospheres formed by plant emissions that can influence how ...

Increased utilitarian value of invasive species in regions with long invasion history may limit public engagement for invasion control

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Positive perceptions of invasive species can hinder effective management, especially if management efforts that are rooted in scientific theories are misaligned with local ecological knowledge. We documented local ecological knowledge about land invasibility as predicted by invasion biology theories. Participants with greater local ecological knowledge

Data mining using intelligent systems : an optimized weighted fuzzy decision tree approach [PDF]

Data mining can be said to have the aim to analyze the observational datasets to find relationships and to present the data in ways that are both understandable and useful.

Within‐tree spatial heterogeneity of sap flow velocities and wood properties and its effect on the uncertainty of tree level sap flux estimates

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As forests are important for biodiversity and recreation and provide vital resources globally, it is essential that their health can be accurately monitored, for example, by using sap flow probes to measure tree water uptake. We investigated whether sap flow measurements might differ at various locations within the same tree due to variation in wood ...

Modeling rainfall drop size distribution moments using an S‐band polarimetric radar in complex terrain

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Using S‐band dual‐polarization radar and disdrometers during PRECIP 2022 in Taiwan, we analyze a Mei‐Yu frontal event with widespread stratiform rain and embedded convection. Multiple disdrometers are used to create a novel drop size distribution model for S‐band radars resolving both the drizzle and precipitation modes. The model reveals both inferred
