Physical Fitness Cut‐Points for Early Detection of Obesity Risk in Preschool Children

open access: yesObesity, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 1081-1091, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to establish cut‐points for cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, and speed‐agility and to evaluate their ability to detect general and central obesity risk in preschool children aged 3–5 years. Methods Briefly, 3179 Spanish preschoolers (52.8% boys) were evaluated.

Data gaps and heterogeneity limit our understanding of human–wildlife interactions: A continental study of Andean bears

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1499-1519, May 2026.
Abstract The expansion and intensification of human activities have increased interactions between people and wildlife. Interactions involving bears and other large carnivores are complex and can lead to conflicts. Promoting positive coexistence requires managing information, which is not always available.

Liquid‐Phase Fabrication of Janus 2D Materials: Defect‐Rich MoS2 Ultrathin Layers Asymmetrically Decorated with Au Nanoparticles

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
This work presents a versatile strategy for asymmetrically decorating MoS2 flakes using SiO2 microspheres as masking templates. The Janus MoS2 exhibits a 1.9‐fold enhancement in photoluminescence (PL) due to the incorporation of Au nanoparticles (NPs), primarily dominated by B exciton emission, which is attributed to defect‐rich structures.

Exploring the Role of Activating Agents on the Electrocatalytic Activity of Grape Pomace‐Derived Catalysts for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2026.
This work explores the influence of KOH (alkaline agent) and ZnCl2 (pore‐generating agent) on the one‐step chemical activation of wine grape pomace to produce Fe‐N‐C catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The analyses reveal that KOH activation generates a highly porous structure with Fe‐Nx sites, leading to a larger electrochemically ...

Climate‐induced shifts in long‐term tropical tree reproductive phenology: Insights from species dependent on and independent of biotic pollination

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1286-1298, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The dependence on biotic pollination may constrain plant phenological responses because flowering time ultimately defines reproductive success. We proposed a local‐scale study combining long‐term phenology and experimental data to evaluate how a key functional trait—the

Intervention Effects on Phonological Processing in Children With Developmental Speech and/or Language Disorder: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Studies With Group Design

open access: yesInternational Journal of Language &Communication Disorders, Volume 61, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Challenges in phonological processing are prevalent in children with developmental speech and/or language disorders and are associated with their language acquisition and later reading skills. A recent systematic review and meta‐analysis from the same project of studies with a group design on the effects of interventions on output ...

Differential Effects of a Literacy Intervention Across Academic Cycles in Children With Learning Difficulties

open access: yesJournal of Research in Reading, Volume 49, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background This study explored the differential effects of a comprehensive intervention program for improving literacy skills in monolingual children with learning difficulties (LD) from Spain, enrolled in the second (Grades 3 and 4; aged 8–10 years) and third cycles (Grades 5 and 6; aged 10–12 years) of primary school.

The effectiveness of an online‐based psychosocial program for parents of children with neurodevelopmental disorders – a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesChild and Adolescent Mental Health, Volume 31, Issue 2, Page 96-105, May 2026.
Background Neurodevelopmental disorders like autism and ADHD may disrupt family and child functioning. Although well‐established psychosocial treatment programs exist, access to these interventions remains limited for many families. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) primarily evaluates the effectiveness of an online psychosocial program (INPSYD ...

Exploring Pathways to the Persistence of Community Engagement in Co‐Management Across Social‐Ecological Conditions

open access: yesConservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Evaluating sustained community engagement in co‐management is critical for designing durable governance with conservation potential, yet such persistence remains rarely assessed. We analyze 750 co‐management initiatives established under Chile's Territorial Use Rights for Fishing policy (1998–2021), examining persistence across conditions ...

An Ecological Modelling Approach to Support Peru Wildlife Conservation Planning Based on Geospatial Datasets and Remote Sensing Information

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Peru, a megadiverse country, has developed conservation plans for some threatened wildlife species. This study produced spatially explicit data integrating Species Distribution Models (SDMs) into a geospatial analysis of connectivity within the protected areas (PAs) network.
