Local‐regional similarity in drylands increases during multiyear wet and dry periods and in response to extreme events

Ecosphere, 2019
Climate change is predicted to impact ecosystems through altered precipitation (PPT) regimes. In the Chihuahuan Desert, multiyear wet and dry periods and extreme PPT pulses are the most influential climatic events for vegetation. Vegetation responses are

Vibration‐controlled transient elastography in pediatric metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 741-750, March 2026.
Abstract Objectives Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a prevalent disease in children. Vibration‐controlled transient elastography (VCTE) offers a noninvasive alternative to liver biopsy, using controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) to estimate steatosis and liver stiffness measurement (LSM) for fibrosis.

Development and Psychometric Testing of the Breastfeeding Knowledge Scale (BKS) in Brazilian Healthcare Students

Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice, Volume 32, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Breastfeeding is recognized as a cornerstone of maternal and child health, yet health professionals frequently report insufficient knowledge to provide effective support. Strengthening the evaluation of educational outcomes in health professions training is therefore essential to improve clinical practice and patient care. This study

Extreme environments in a world of new extremes

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Extreme environments, whether defined by climate, soils, or disturbance, at landscape or micro‐scales, are prevalent across Earth's surface and have long served as crucibles for ecological and evolutionary insights. Many foundational theories were developed in deserts, cliffs, ultramafic soils, and other harsh systems.

Digital Soil Mapping in the Absence of Field Training Data: A Case Study Using Terrain Attributes and Semiautomated Soil Signature Derivation to Distinguish Ecological Potential

Applied and Environmental Soil Science, 2011
Spatially explicit data for soil properties governing plant water availability are needed to understand mechanisms influencing plant species distributions and predict plant responses to changing climate. This is especially important for arid and semiarid

Hydrologic Dynamics of Ephemerally Flooded Playas in a Dryland Environment

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Ephemerally flooded playas are common in the southwestern United States and globally in drylands. Often formed in closed basins, playas are depressions which inundate infrequently from local precipitation and streamflow produced near the playa or from upland areas.

Digital Cancer Communication Strategies in Spain: Differences Between Public and Private Hospitals and the Role of Cultural Sensitivity

Health &Social Care in the Community, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study explores the dynamics of cancer communication on Facebook by Spanish hospitals, analysing 8061 posts through sophisticated textual analysis and regression methodologies. It identifies divergent strategies between private and public hospitals, with private institutions emphasising cancer risks and prevention to appeal to a health‐conscious ...

Shrub encroachment promotes positive feedbacks from herbivores that reinforce ecosystem change

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Herbivores can be drivers of ecosystem change by triggering and reinforcing vegetation transitions. Such processes may be prevalent in drylands with low productivity where herbivore abundances are linked to climate‐driven resource pulses.
