Pharmacological intervention: Challenges and promising outcomes for fat loss and preservation of lean body mass in the treatment of overweight and type 2 diabetes. [PDF]
Diabetes Obes MetabAbstract Treatment with GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) is effective in reducing body weight in individuals with overweight and type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, measurements indicate that a considerable portion of the weight loss derives from fat‐free mass (FFM), including skeletal muscle, which may compromise metabolic health and physical function.

The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...
