ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Mosquitoes of the genus Aedes, including but not limited to Aedes aegypti, are major vectors of arboviruses such as dengue, Zika and other related diseases. Their global expansion is driven by climate change, globalisation, urbanisation and human mobility.

Coronavirus Detection in Bats Captured on the Deforestation Arc of Mato Grosso, Brazil
ABSTRACT Coronaviruses (CoV) are RNA viruses associated with enteric and respiratory diseases and known for their emergence potential in humans and other mammals. CoVs originate from zoonotic transmission, in which bats are natural reservoirs. Previous studies suggest that CoV diversity is positively correlated with bat diversity, whereas anthropogenic

Enhanced Crow Search Algorithm Based on Space Hybridization of Adaptive Functions and Lévy Flight
To address the limitations of the Crow Search Algorithm regarding its susceptibility to local optima and slow convergence speed when handling high-dimensional complex problems, this study proposes six enhanced variants, encompassing ACSA-1 through ACSA-3

Mechanisms of haemoglobin mass expansion following heat stress
Abstract figure legend Theorised mechanisms of heat stress‐induced erythropoiesis which may facilitate the expansion of haemoglobin mass. A, acute: heat stress‐induced renal ischaemia. Redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys to facilitate thermoregulation during heat stress could reduce renal oxygen delivery, subsequently lowering renal PO2${

Characterizing Point‐Source Carbon Emissions by Combining TROPOMI CO and OCO CO2 Data
Abstract Understanding and independently validating carbon emissions from concentrated point sources is vital to support climate policy. Satellite‐based quantifications of CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ point source emissions have been limited by the spatial coverage of current satellite instruments. We combine three different satellite instruments to determine

Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

Fluid limit of the continuous-time random walk with general Lévy jump distribution functions. [PDF]
The continuous time random walk (CTRW) is a natural generalization of the Brownian random walk that allows the incorporation of waiting time distributions ψ(t) and general jump distribution functions η(x).

Integration of epigenetics into ecotoxicology: insights and fundamental research needs
ABSTRACT Epigenetics refers to heritable changes in genome function that occur without direct alterations to the DNA sequence. A multitude of environmental contaminants can influence the epigenetic marks of a genome. Changes of epigenetic marks including DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non‐coding RNAs can induce alterations at the gene ...
