Race and Household Income Are Associated With Disease Outcomes in Pediatric Patients With Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody–Associated Vasculitis Hospitalized in the United States

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Race and household income impact outcomes in patients with rheumatic conditions; however, their role in pediatric antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitis (AAV) remains poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate whether race and ethnicity and household income are associated with severe AAV disease and renal outcomes among

Future enhanced threshold effects of wildfire drivers could increase burned areas in northern mid- and high latitudes

Communications Earth & Environment
Wildfires exhibit extensive nonlinear characteristics and threshold effects in response to environmental changes. However, how threshold effects affect wildfire responses and their future changes remains unclear.

Clinician and Patient Factors Associated With Long‐Term Glucocorticoid Use in People With Rheumatoid Arthritis Receiving Advanced Therapies

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Despite guideline recommendations, long‐term glucocorticoid (GC) use is common in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We conducted a clinician survey nested within a large registry to identify patient and clinician factors associated with GC use. Methods Clinicians contributing patients to the CorEvitas Rheumatoid Arthritis Registry were surveyed ...

Comprehensive Comparison and Validation of Forest Disturbance Monitoring Algorithms Based on Landsat Time Series in China

Remote Sensing
Accurate long-term and high-resolution forest disturbance monitoring are pivotal for forest carbon modeling and forest management. Many algorithms have been developed for this purpose based on the Landsat time series, but their nationwide performance ...

Caregiver Perspectives on the Burden of Disease and Treatment in Uncontrolled Gout

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Uncontrolled gout (UG) refers to persistently elevated serum urate (SU) levels >6 mg/dL and ongoing gout symptoms despite use of urate‐lowering therapy (ULT). The objective of this study was to evaluate the burden associated with informal caregiving for individuals with UG.

Global forest gaps reduce litterfall but increase litter carbon and phosphorus release

Communications Earth & Environment
Ongoing global climate change and conventional forestry have led to a dramatic increase in new forest gaps, predicted to strongly impact litter turnover and nutrient cycling.

Hydrology and carbon pool characteristics regulate dissolved carbon export in a subtropical forest headwater stream

Journal of Forest Science
Headwater streams are key pathways for carbon (C) transfer from terrestrial to aquatic ecosystems. Sediments and plant litter constitute major C pools in streams, yet their roles in regulating dissolved carbon (DC) exports remain poorly understood. Here,

Wildfires on the Mongolian Plateau: Identifying Drivers and Spatial Distributions to Predict Wildfire Probability

Remote Sensing, 2019
With climate change, significant fluctuations in wildfires have been observed on the Mongolian Plateau. The ability to predict the distribution of wildfires in the context of climate change plays a critical role in wildfire management and ecosystem ...

The Development of Rheumatoid Arthritis–Specific Ambulatory Care–Sensitive Conditions: Results of a Consensus Process

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Ambulatory care–sensitive conditions (ACSCs) serve as indicators of access, quality, and performance of the health system. This study aimed to determine rheumatoid arthritis (RA)‐specific ACSCs for use in the evaluation of care system access and quality.

Geographical education III: Changing climate, changing geographies, changing geographical education?

Progress in Human Geography
This third progress report critically examines the shifting role of climate change in geographical education: from a peripheral concern to an urgent and defining priority. Climate change now occupies substantial space across research, practice and curriculum, however, this transformation unfolds amid ongoing ‘lag’ between public discourse, research ...
