CT-based quantification of intratumoral heterogeneity for predicting pathologic complete response to neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer

Frontiers in Immunology
ObjectivesTo investigate the prediction of pathologic complete response (pCR) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy (NAIC) using quantification of intratumoral heterogeneity from pre-treatment CT ...

Early Hominin Paleoenvironments and Habitat Heterogeneity

Annual Review of Anthropology
Environmental changes are often cited as the main driver of hominin evolutionary events, including major adaptive events such as bipedalism. Thus, researchers are particularly interested in the paleoenvironment of early hominins. The previous prevailing idea that hominins originated in expanding savannas is contradicted by the association of the ...

The evidence base for ranger patrol effectiveness in conservation and how to improve it

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ranger patrols are a cornerstone of wildlife protection efforts around the world and occur across all ecological governance systems. Evidence that patrols reduce threats to wildlife and enable their recovery has not been systematically examined previously.

Resource availability and heterogeneity affect space use and resource selection of a feral ungulate

Ecosphere
Animals adjust their habitat use patterns in response to changes in their physiological needs and environmental conditions. Understanding the mechanisms underlying resource selection and space use across time and space reveals effects of the environment ...

Trade‐offs in avian parental care: a review of theory and meta‐analysis of brood size manipulations

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The selective forces shaping parental care have been studied for over 50 years. While theoretical and experimental work has yielded qualitative progress, the large body of empirical work testing predictions about parental investment based on life‐history trade‐offs has yet to be synthesized.

Orchard netting impacts on biodiversity leading to cascading effects at the ecosystem level

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agriculture must ensure food production without further compromising the ecosystem functions upon which it depends. Agricultural practices should therefore avoid harming farmland biodiversity, especially of taxa that supply the key ecosystem services (e.g.

Close Relatives, Different Niches: Urban Ecology of Two Range-Expanding Thrushes Recently Meeting in the Argentinian Pampas

Birds
Urbanization reshapes bird communities by filtering species according to their ecological traits, often reducing richness, altering relative abundances, and favoring a subset of functionally tolerant species that dominate urban assemblages.
