Prediction of Disease Progression and Clinical Response in Systemic Sclerosis: Experience From a Proof‐of‐Concept Trial

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology
Objective Using the modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS) as a surrogate for disease activity, a phase 2a study in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) measured efficacy of the autotaxin inhibitor ziritaxestat.

Haematology and plasma biochemistry reference intervals of Galapagos tortoises from Isabela Island

open access: yes
Wildlife health assessments including haematology and biochemistry parameters are essential to evaluating the well-being of free-living species. In Galapagos, the iconic giant tortoises still thrive in the archipelago despite anthropogenic pressures ...

Risk of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Following Hospital‐Treated Infections and Modulatory Role of Host Genetics to Support a Multi‐Hit Pathogenesis Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 55, 5 October 2026.
Hospital‐treated infections are linked to increased risk of inflammatory bowel disease in a large prospective cohort. This risk differs by infection burden, time since infection, and host immune‐genetic susceptibility. The findings support a multi‐hit pathogenesis model in which severe infection and inherited susceptibility jointly shape inflammatory ...

Comparable Infection Risk of Ocrelizumab and Rituximab in Multiple Sclerosis in a Nationwide Swedish Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 100, Issue 4, Page 788-792, October 2026.
In multiple sclerosis (MS), anti‐CD20 therapies have been associated with increased infection risk, but whether this risk differs between rituximab and ocrelizumab is not known. Using a nationwide cohort, we studied infection risk and relapse outcomes among 16,872 treatment episodes with rituximab, ocrelizumab, or other disease‐modifying therapies ...

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2119-2133, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...

Alien species pathways to the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Alien species, one of the biggest threats to natural ecosystems worldwide, are of particular concern for oceanic archipelagos such as Galápagos. To enable more effective management of alien species, we reviewed, collated and analysed all available ...

Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2134-2157, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2190-2213, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over
