Non-linear response of summertime marine productivity to increased meltwater discharge around Greenland

Nature Communications, 2018
Runoff from the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) is thought to enhance marine productivity by adding bioessential iron and silicic acid to coastal waters. However, experimental data suggest nitrate is the main summertime growth-limiting resource in regions ...

Significant impact of lithogenic dissolution from subantarctic volcanic islands on the regional marine silicon cycle

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Silicic acid controls the production of diatoms, a predominant phytoplankton in the Southern Ocean. Diatoms are major contributors to the biological carbon pump, which is particularly active in the Southern Ocean as well as in areas naturally enriched in iron, such as around the Kerguelen Plateau.

Inuit population have shorter gastric emptying, higher duodenal motility and altered pan-enteric micromilieu: a comparative study between Greenlandic and Danish populations with and without type 2 diabetes

International Journal of Circumpolar Health
Gastrointestinal function plays a pivotal role in nutrient absorption and overall digestive health. Abnormal gastric emptying is closely linked to type 2 diabetes, impacting blood glucose regulation and causing gastrointestinal symptoms.

Nitrate deposition to surface snow at Summit, Greenland, following the 9 November 2000 solar proton event [PDF]

, 2014
This study considers whether spikes in nitrate in snow sampled at Summit, Greenland, from August 2000 to August 2002 are related to solar proton events. After identifying tropospheric sources of nitrate on the basis of correlations with sulfate, ammonium,

Incidence and Mortality Risks of Gastrointestinal Cancers During Working‐Age Period: Trends and Disparities in 204 Countries and Territories (1990–2021)

Med Research, EarlyView.
This comprehensive analysis of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer risk reveals that globally, one in 46 people will develop and one in 73 will die from GI cancers during working age (15–64 years), with 2021 incidence and mortality risks of 2.19% and 1.37%, respectively. Key findings demonstrate striking gender disparities, with males facing nearly double the

Constipation Is Linked to Neuroinflammation in Early Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Constipation is a risk factor for the onset and accelerated progression of Parkinson's disease (PD), but the mechanisms underlying this association are unknown. Neuroinflammation in PD has been demonstrated in postmortem and neuroimaging studies; however, its relationship with constipation has not been investigated.
