Translocation of livestock‐raiding lions under specific conditions can mitigate conflict

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Human‐wildlife conflict is a pervasive threat that imperils many carnivore species worldwide, and although translocation is often used as a conflict mitigation strategy, it is widely regarded as ineffective. Here, we demonstrate that careful selection of suitable release sites can improve outcomes, as 80% of stock‐raiding lion translocations in ...

Natural History of Chronic Kidney Disease in Sickle Cell Disease

American Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 7, Page 1456-1477, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Kidney complications, referred to as nephropathy, develop early in sickle cell disease (SCD). In addition to its known morbidity, abundant data show that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased mortality risk in SCD. Increasing evidence suggests that the natural history of SCD nephropathy is progressive. Initial glomerular
